TERROR FROM EVERY SIDE DENOUNCE HIM

FRIDAY 5TH WEEK OF LENT Universalis
Is it not written in your Law: I said, you are gods?
Reading Jeremiah 20:10-13
He has delivered the soul of the needy from the hands of evil men

Jeremiah said: I hear so many disparaging me, ‘“Terror from every side!” Denounce him! Let us denounce him!’ All those who used to be my friends watched for my downfall, ‘Perhaps he will be seduced into error.

Then we will master him and take our revenge!’ But the Lord is at my side, a mighty hero; my opponents will stumble, mastered, confounded by their failure; everlasting, unforgettable disgrace will be theirs.

But you, O Lord of Hosts, you who probe with justice, who scrutinise the loins and heart, let me see the vengeance you will take on them, for I have committed my cause to you. Sing to the Lord, praise the Lord, for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hands of evil men.

Gospel John 10:31-42  They wanted to stone Jesus, but he eluded them

The Jews fetched stones to stone him, so Jesus said to them, ‘I have done many good works for you to see, works from my Father; for which of these are you stoning me?’ The Jews answered him, ‘We are not stoning you for doing a good work but for blasphemy: you are only a man and you claim to be God.’ Jesus answered: CDR

‘Is it not written in your Law: I said, you are gods? So the Law uses the word gods of those to whom the word of God was addressed, and scripture cannot be rejected. Yet you say to someone the Father has consecrated and sent into the world, “You are blaspheming,” because he says, “I am the son of God.”

If I am not doing my Father’s work, there is no need to believe me; but if I am doing it, then even if you refuse to believe in me, at least believe in the work I do; then you will know for sure that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.’.......

My Father I hear so many disparaging me, Father terror from every side. Those whom I trusted I heard them say denounce him. Those who used to be my friends watched for my downfall, saying perhaps I will be seduced into error. So they can over power me and take their revenge.

Father my refuge, my mighty Father, you are at my side they will never over power me. They will be confounded by their failure. Everlasting Father, unforgettable disgrace will be theirs. God of Hosts, you probe with justice, you search the heart, I have committed my cause to you. I will sing your praise, for you have delivered my soul from the hands of evil men. Psalm 142

Lord Jesus Christ Son of God Most High, I trust in you. I believe you are the savior of the world. I believe that you and the Father are one. The Father is in you, and you in the Father. Sacred heart of Jesus I place all my trust in you. Immaculate heart of Mary pray for me. Saint Joseph pray for me, God’s Holy Angels and Saints pray for me. My Guardian Angel pray for me.

Pray the Holy Rosary; Blessed Mother of Christ our Redeemer pray for us. Hail Mary full of grace.
