John
5:33-36
Jesus
said to the Jews: “You sent emissaries to John, and he testified to the truth.
I do not accept testimony from a human being, but I say this so that you may be
saved. John was a burning and shining lamp, and for a while you were content to
rejoice in his light. But I have testimony greater than John’s. The works that
the Father gave me to accomplish, these works that I perform testify on my
behalf that the Father has sent me.”

Reflection:
Do you
have a personal experience about Jesus? For example an instance in your life
wherein Jesus changed you to become a gentler and loving person or any
experience that you have about Jesus.
If you
have this one of a kind life changing experience with Jesus you have to share
it, don’t just keep it to yourself. This
is for the reason that when you share your life experience with Jesus you can
change another life courtesy of Jesus through you.
However
we have to remember that we have to share Jesus in humility and gentleness. For
the simple reason that this is where we could become more effective heralds of
our savior. If we share Jesus with bombast we may never be able to bring others
near Him because we humans gravitate toward humble and gentle people.
If we are
afraid of sharing Jesus through the spoken word let us not be afraid to share
Jesus through our actions. Actions of love, humility and gentleness for the
simple reason that these acts are the best testament that Jesus is alive and
has an active part in our lives. – Marino J. Dasmarinas
