In today’s Gospel, we hear the familiar phrase, “And the truth
shall make you free.” We hear this in songs, on TV, in books we read and from
significant people in our lives. This is
one of those lines that really stands out when it is said or when we read it.
Jesus is urging us in this Gospel to move beyond our own
sinfulness and be freed from all that binds us.
We all desire to be free and do not like to feel trapped, put down, or
guilty, but we often find ourselves feeling that way.
We are called
to live in Christ’s love and grace. If
we take the time to look at our lives we realize when we fall short of living
in Christ’s love and grace. Perhaps this
last week of Lent is a good time to look at our lives and remember that the
truth will always make us free and give us grace. Remember that God’s love for you is
unconditional!
