In today's Gospel the word 'friend' turns up.
What is our identity about? Who are we and why are we who we are?
No doubt our family, our friends, those we brush against in our daily lives, play a role in making us who we are.
Surely our identity is highly influenced by our relationships with other people. Friendship.
Jesus tells us he is our friend. So we have a great chance of being influenced by God's friendship. ordinary, down-to-earth friendship.
Words said after the Gospel at 07.30 Mass in the Three Patrons Church, Rathgar today.
