GOSPEL THOUGHTS

*Easter Season: Third Week : Tuesday*

*Gospel : Jn 6:30-35*

*First Reading : Acts 7:51—8:1a*

*Crucifix is the greatest sign in the entire human History*

*1) What sign can you do, that we may see and believe in you?*

This is the question, which was asked by the disciples of Jesus during his time 

If we were to ask this particular question, and mediate on this question, we will find a wonderful answer to this question

*2) Crucifix is the greatest sign in the Human History*

Crucifix is the greatest sign, which has become eternal sign, through the death of Jesus on the Cross

There is no other sign in the world which depicts the unconditional love of God, through Jesus Christ

It is a sign which shines in the darkness of the world to give new life to every one 

*3) The Great Sings from the Crucifix*

As we see the crucifix, following are the signs, which are seen in the crucifix

Crucifix is a sign of love 

Crucifix is a sign of sacrifice

Crucifix is a sign of service

Crucifix is a sign of peace

Crucifix is a sign of God's gift 

Crucifix is a sign of forgiveness

Crucifix is a sign of faithfulness

Crucifix is a sign of care

Crucifix is a sign of kindness

Crucifix is a sign of concern

Crucifix is a sign of eternal Life 

Crucifix is a sign of patience

*4) A sign Which is open to all*

Crucifix is a open sign which calls every one to follow the Gospel values 

Its a open sign to love ones enemies and to forgive others 

It is a sign to conquer the world through love, service, forgiveness and sacrifice

*5) Crucifix is Found everywhere*

We see crucifix everywhere, wherever Christians are found 

There is no place where the crucifix is not found, wherever there are Christians 

Crucifix brings Christian presence and Christians bring the presence of the Cross

*6) Crucifix is the sign of Christianity*

Today crucifix has become the external sign of Christianity

Christianity and Crucifix go together. One can't exit without the another 

Have I realized that crucifix is the greatest sign in my life? 

Do I still look for a sign? 

*Think about it*

*God bless you and your family. Praying for you and your dear ones*
