Jesus declared, “The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life” (Jn 6:63). The spiritual nourishment that we assimilate from the word of God gives us the highest life, the life of the spirit which is superior to the natural life. Meditating on the Word daily allows us to participate personally in God’s own life. This commentary by Fr. Bertrand provides insight into the daily readings that can be used with the Gospel whether you are going to mass or meditating at home.
