JesComTV THE SHEPHERD LEADS US TO THE FATHER | The Word Exposed with Cardinal Tagle (April 21, 2024)
We are on the Fourth Sunday of Easter, which is also celebrated as Good Shepherd Sunday. The gospel proclaims Jesus as the good shepherd who gave up his life for his flock.
During the holy season of Lent, which culminated in our celebration of the Paschal Triduum, we remembered and relived how Jesus offered himself on the cross so that we may be reconciled with God.
And now that we are savoring the glory and triumph of his resurrection, we are consoled by our Lord who laid down his life for us and took it up again. The shepherd knows his flock. The Risen One called Mary Magdalene by her name. He returned to the upper room to strengthen Thomas. He entrusted his sheep to Peter despite his weakness. And there are other stories of the Risen Lord seeking out his disciples, teaching them again so that they could become His witnesses.
Friends, that’s the Good Shepherd. He offered himself for the good of his flock. He sought and gathered his disciples again, so that he may lead them to the fullness of life in union with the Father. Let us follow where He leads us.
