A Moment To Pause; During Eastertide - Tuesday 28th April 2026

We join Pat Hughes for this morning’s short audio reflection during Eastertide. Tuesday 28th April Gospel John10:22-30 Good morning. Let us make the sign of the Cross . In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. “Are you the Messiah?” was the question in this passage that caused Jesus to respond “I have told you but you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name are my witness, but you do not believe, because you are no sheep of mine.”   This is an invitation to move beyond demanding miracles and to trust in Jesus’ ongoing presence and care with the focus of the profound gift of eternal life!  “NO-one can take them away from the Father’s care.” Says Jesus. And then Jesus claims his divinity by stating : “ My Father and I are one” I wonder how long Jesus had waited to say that out loud and so emphatically. I think he would have breathed a sigh of relief even though underlying the statement would have been his full knowledge of his mortal death. We give thanks for His Resurrection. Let us show our Joy  and Thanks this Eastertide. Let us pray Glory be to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit as it was in the beginning is now and ever will be. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit .Amen. Thank you for praying with and for the Oblates today.
