"Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you". To Jesus the most important thing is Peter’s love, not Peter’s sins. If Peter can love without condition, not only does Jesus forgive him but Jesus also puts in Pe- ter's hands the task of being at the head of the Church to “feed his lambs” to “tend his sheep” and to “feed the sheep.” Peter’s crucial role in the Church is thus pow- erfully re-affirmed, despite his weaknesses and past denials. Once again, the love of God is greater than our sins, greater than our failings. In his letter to the Romans Saint Paul states that God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, which has been given to us. May the Lord inflame our hearts with the gifts of the Spirit so that we may truly love God and others, even those who have hurt us, and those Weekly Readings we find difficult to love and to forgive!
