Worthy of Trust

Christ deserves our trust. In the reading from the book of wisdom the people want to put someone to the test to see if he is worthy of being trusted. This person in Christ. In the gospel He tells his disciples how far He his willing to go to show his love for us. Recently in a friend of mine told me that the cross is more than just the suffering of Christ, but it is his love. When He told his disciples that He was to die, He wanted to tell them that He loved them and how great that love was. He was willing to die and then to rise to come back to them. This is what Christ is willing to do for us. This is what we are invited to do to be his disciples. We are invited to show love our love for God in every circumstance. To really love Him beyond the feelings and to be faithful till death in our love for Him as He was for us. God is faithful and we trust Him for that. He trusts us, we must live up to this trust by taking care of what He has given us.
