1st Reading (Acts 13:26-33):
Gospel (Jn 14:1-6):
God had always cared for the people of Israel: Paul went to the synagogue to comfort his brothers in faith. God sent his Son to fulfill the promises of the OT.
These promises were transformed into a victory of the Resurrected through the absurd happenings of the crucifixion. The success was achieved through a complete defeat.
The Defeated was removed from the face of the Earth, we get a place among the triumphant winners, a place not on the Earth but in Heaven. That place cannot be taken or tarnished by any evil. Jesus asks us to have faith in Divine Providence and His Love in any situation. Nothing should disturb our peace. He / Jesus also had complete faith that the Father would never abandon him.
