Short
Reflection for the 6th Sunday of Easter (B)
Readings:
Acts 10: 25-26. 34-35. 44-48; 1 John 4: 7-10; John 15: 9-17
Selected
Passage: “I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his
master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have told you everything
I have heard from my Father.” (John 15: 15)
Meditation: Among the many names given to the followers
of Jesus, the title: “FRIENDS of Jesus” is, no doubt, the closest to the heart
of discipleship. Jesus calls us friends, because he shares with us all he has
from the Father
Yes.
Have no fear, Jesus is our FRIEND and we are his…!
DHIKR SIMPLE METHOD...
Dhikr is an Arabic word for remembrance. In the
“tariqa” (the way) movement, dhikr developed into a form of prayer… It is a
prayer of the heart… following three simple steps:
1.
Write in one’s heart a certain
passage of the Holy Writ…
2.
Make the same passage ever
present in one’s lips.
3.
Then wait for God’s disclosure
on the meaning of the passage…that interprets one’s life NOW…!
It takes a week of remembering (dhikr)…or even more
days to relish the beauty of this method…
