If anyone loves me, he will keep my word and my Father will love him; and we will come to him and make a room in his home
Gospel
text (Jn 14,23-29): Jesus
said to his disciples: «If anyone loves me, he will keep my word and my Father
will love him; and we will come to him and make a room in his home. But if
anyone does not love me, he will not keep my words, and these words that you
hear are not mine but the Father's who sent me. I told you all this while I was
still with you. From now on the Helper, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will
send in my name, will teach you all things and remind you of all that I have
told you. Peace be with you; I give you my peace. Not as the world gives peace
do I give it to you. Do not be troubled; do not be afraid. You heard me say: ‘I
am going away, but I am coming to you’. If you loved me, you would be glad that
I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. I have told you this now
before it takes place, so that when it does happen you may believe
