Monday of the 5th Week of Easter

Today's readings explore the question of where we truly encounter God's presence and power. In Acts, we hear how Paul and Barnabas respond when crowds mistake them for gods after witnessing a miraculous healing. Jesus teaches his disciples that divine presence comes not through spectacle, but through love expressed in faithful obedience to his word. Today's Readings: • First Reading: Acts 14:5-18 • Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 115:1-2, 3-4, 15-16 • Gospel: John 14:21-26
