Fr. Marvin’s Reflection - April 6, 2025

In today’s Gospel (John 8:1-11), Jesus intervenes to save a woman from being stoned for adultery. He tells her that no one condemns her and declares, “Neither do I condemn you. Go, and from now on do not sin any more.” Her encounter with Jesus's mercy and compassion transforms her life.

Just as Jesus extended mercy to the woman, He offers the same to us. We need not remain ensnared by guilt and shame. Our Lord continually reaches out with His merciful heart, inviting us to choose the path of freedom over oppression by sin. As our Lord said to Saint Faustina, “The greater the sinner, the greater the right he has to My mercy."  Today, let us pray for those struggling in sin and for their decision to turn to the Lord for true mercy and forgiveness. 

How can you embrace Jesus’s mercy in your life and inspire others to seek His transformative love?

In Christ, 

Fr. Marvin
