Gaudete
Sunday is from the Latin of the entrance antiphon, Rejoice in
the Lord always, again I say rejoice. Indeed the Lord is
near.The readings remind us of God's faithfulness in
fulfilling his promises & emphasize that the coming of Jesus is
Good News to hope and believe in. God is really the source of joy
and we can pass that joy to others. St Paul encourages the people
of Philippi to look past their conflicts and troubles and rejoice
because the Lord is near.
(Pray: "Lord Jesus, let your light
burn brightly in my heart that I may know the joy and freedom of
your kingdom. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and empower me to
witness the truth of your gospel and to point others to the light
of Christ.")
