Mass Prep: “I Will Come to You” | John 14:15–21

This week’s Mass Prep reflects on John 14:15–21, where Jesus tells His disciples: “If you love me, you will keep my commandments,” “I will not leave you orphans,” and “You are in me and I in you.”As we move closer to Ascension and Pentecost, this Gospel invites us to slow down and receive the promise of Christ’s nearness. Jesus prepares His disciples for His visible departure, but He does not abandon them. He promises the Holy Spirit, the Advocate, who will dwell within them.In this episode, we reflect on love, obedience, spiritual dryness, the ache of feeling abandoned, the indwelling of God, and the promise that Christ still comes to us, even when He feels hidden.For everyone who has ever prayed through silence, dryness, fear, or the feeling that God is far away: you are not orphaned. He comes.
