14. I WED of Epiphany

Jn 21:15-19: Authority in the church is to be assigned in proportion to one’s love for Jesus, even to the point of dying for the Master and for his flock. Peter here defines authority in relation to love in front of his Master. He is asked to be a good shepherd with total concern for and dedication to the community(1 Pet 5: 1-4) the good shepherd must be like Jesus who guided, taught, went after the stray sheep, healed, loved and gave his life for his flock.
