JESUS CHRIST: THE LIGHT THAT CAME INTO THE WORLD OF DARKNESS: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION: 4TH SUNDAY OF LENT: LAETARE SUNDAY! CYCLE A, 2023

There are many themes in the readings of today but one that is very clear is that Jesus Christ is the light that came into the world of darkness. Last Sunday we saw the theme of Christ: Living Water that springs to eternal life. Christ was presented to us as the only one who can satisfy our hunger or our thirst. This fourth Sunday, Christ again gave himself as The Light of the world so that we do not live in the error or darkness of sin.
