What concern is it of yours? You follow me.\u201d So the word spread among the brothers that that disciple would not die. But Jesus had not told him that he would not die, just \u201cWhat if I want him to remain until I come? What concern is it of yours?\u201d It is this disciple who testifies to these things and has written them, and we know that his testimony is true. There are also many other things that Jesus did, but if these were to be described individually, I do not think the whole world would contain the books that would be written.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Opening Prayer: <\/strong>Lord, thank you for Peter. He teaches us so much about how you work with human nature. Help me to be open and honest in my prayer today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n\t<li><strong>Peter Turned\u2026?:<\/strong> The Gospel opens with the phrase \u201cPeter turned\u2026\u201d Jesus had just intimated that Peter would die on a cross, and commanded him to, \u201cFollow me.\u201d Instead of responding to Jesus with \u201cfiat,\u201d or even \u201cI\u2019m frightened,\u201d Peter turned and inquired about John. Little children do this sometimes. They ignore a direct command as if they didn\u2019t hear it, and they busy themselves with the nearest distraction. When God asks more of us than we are willing to give, we sometimes turn away too. Fortunately, we know that Peter, who seemed more interested in John\u2019s fate than in following Jesus at that moment, went on to grow in grace enough to lead the Church and become a saint. We draw consolation from Peter\u2019s example as we hope to become saints one day ourselves.\n\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\t<li><strong>What Concern Is It of Yours?: <\/strong>Our Lord rebuked Peter, reminding him (and us) to stay focused on the mission. \u201cYou, follow me,\u201d Jesus said. Why did Peter ask, \u201cWhat about him?\u201d Was Peter envious of John? Concerned for John, that he might also face crucifixion? Overwhelmed by Jesus\u2019 revelation and out of sorts? Regardless of his motive, Peter earned a reprimand. Considering the ugliness of sin, Our Lord\u2019s reprimands can be exceedingly gentle. They can come in the form of a spouse\u2019s well-intentioned criticism, a friends\u2019 fraternal correction, a chiding by a spiritual guide with our best interests at heart, or an inspired confessor. Knowing, as we do, that these comments are grounded in the love of Christ, we humble ourselves, thank Our Lord for his wisdom, make the correction, and refocus on the mission.\n\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\t<li><strong>Jesus Did So Many Things:<\/strong> John tells us that all the books in the world could not have contained Our Lord\u2019s actions. That was true in his lifetime, but even more true today, as Christ acts in a multitude of ways in everyone\u2019s life every day, every hour. Among his most profound acts is the transubstantiation that happens at every Mass throughout the world around the clock. His presence through the sacraments sanctifies souls continually. And he acts among nonbelievers in the good they do and the love they share. Even in those spiritually dead, Jesus is entombed. \u201cHe remains in all those who are tempted: in those who are in mortal sin, he is in the tomb. We should never come to a sinner without the reverence we would take to the Holy Sepulchre.\u201d \u2014 Caryll Houselander<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord, you seem to be reminding me to keep my eyes on you in these Gospel verses. I get frightened, overwhelmed, and easily distracted from my everyday mission\u2014 to love those you put in my path. Please let me know when I\u2019ve stepped out of line. I want to do your will, but I\u2019m weak. Come Holy Spirit!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Resolution:<\/strong> Lord, today by your grace I will do a thorough examination of conscience to see where I can reorient my thoughts and actions toward you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>For Further Reflection: <\/strong>\u201cGod abides in men,\u201d <em>The Flowering Tree<\/em>, Caryll Houselander<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGod abides in men,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are men who are simple,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they are fields of corn\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such men have minds<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">like wide grey skies,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they have the grandeur<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that the fools call emptiness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">God abides in men.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some men are not simple,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they live in cities<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">among the teeming buildings,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wrestling with forces<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as strong as the sun and the rain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Often they must forgo dream upon dream\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Christ walks in the wilderness<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in such lives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">God abides in men,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">because Christ has put on<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the nature of man, like a garment, and worn it to his own shape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has put on everyone&#8217;s life\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to the workman&#8217;s clothes to the King&#8217;s red robes,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to the snowy loveliness of the wedding garment\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Christ has put on Man&#8217;s nature,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and given him back his humanness\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">God abides in man.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maribeth Harper celebrated paying the last tuition bill for her kids\u2019 college by writing a book for parents who have college-aged young adults: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spiritual-Toolbox-Parenting-through-College\/dp\/B0C6BX5G3R\">A Spiritual Toolbox: Tips for Parenting through the First Year of College<\/a>.
