Alleluia Christ is Risen!
Last Sunday's gospel invited us to listen in on Jesus's conversation with Peter on the shore of the Sea of Tiberias. Jesus asked Peter three times, “Do you love me?” After each question, Jesus then asked Peter to “Feed my lambs; tend my sheep; feed my sheep."
When we care for those in need, donate food for the local food pantry, help a neighbor get to a doctor's appointment, make a meal for someone who is ill, we are caring for Jesus's flock.
Jesus invites us to feed, tend, feed, not those whom we see, but those who Christ sees. Let us accept Jesus's invitation and to see the world, to see his flock, with his eyes of compassion.
