THE GOSPEL

John 21:1-19 or 21:1-14

So the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord.”

Fish
without number.
Nets too heavy for lifting now.
You gave more than they could ever hold.
And John saw with his
eyes of love
that
the man on the shore was
Jesus!

We
want to
see with the
eyes of love too
and be weighed down
with the miraculous catch of care.
 
“Lord, you know that we love you.”
Help us feed your
lambs.


THE FIRST READING

Acts 5:27-32, 40b-41

So they left rejoicing that they had been found worthy
to suffer dishonor for the sake of the name.

“Worthy to suffer dishonor.”

Jesus, let us
agree to your suffering.
Then caress it
 boldly.

And be thrilled to speak,
with our lives,
your
love.


THE SECOND READING

Revelation 5:11-14

I heard everything in the universe cry out.

Everything in heaven and on earth, under the earth and
in the sea, everything in the cosmos, cries out:
 “Glory and honor and might
and blessing be to
the Lamb.”
 
Let us
sing with them
your words, “Holy, holy, holy,
heaven and earth are full of your glory.
                                                                                         
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world.
Grant us peace”!
