Reflect

1. Jesus did not simply speak of suffering or offer an explanation about it. No, he embraced it, accepted it, shared it, and transformed it out of love for us.

How does the knowledge of the Cross change your experience of suffering?

How does it affect the way you look at others' sufferings?

2. Reflect on Jesus' words:

A hired man, who is not a shepherd and whose sheep are not his own, sees a wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf catches and scatters them. This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and I know mine and mine know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I will lay down my life for the sheep (Jn 10:12–15).

What words, phrases, or images from this gospel passage resonate with your experience at this time?

3. What else in this chapter was important to you?
