Lord, Where Else Would We Go? You Have the Words of Eternal Life!

In today’s Gospel, there is an exchange between Jesus and His disciples.

The Gospel is part of the Bread of Life. In the exchange, someone says . . . this saying is hard. Who can accept it?

This statement about the preaching of Jesus is with us for the last two thousand years. In our world, especially today, there is a tendency to believe that we can choose what to believe. We may believe that we can focus on those things of God that work for me. Wow!

By thinking this way . . . we may think it is natural. So much so, we miss the arrogance of thinking this way. This leads us to tell God what we will and won’t accept from Him. It leads us to decide what we will and will not do when He speaks to me! Listen more within the Homily.

This teaching is hard . . . who can accept it? The Lord’s teachings have led to this moment of decision for those that have been living with . . . believing in . . . and following the Lord. Some will choose to accept the difficult teachings. Some others will not. In doing so, they decide to turn away from the Lord.
