​What Do You Seek

​ Second Sunday in Ordinary Time ( 17 January 2021 )

[ 1 Samuel 3:3-10.19 , Ps 39:2.4.7-10 , 1 Corinthians 6:13-15.17-20 , John 1:35-42 ]

“What do you seek?” it is a question that Jesus invites all of us to ponder upon regarding the longings and desires of our hearts. In these longings lies the energy that nourishes the search for the mystery and finger of God present in our lives.   The reply of the two disciples: “Where do you stay?” expresses their interest in the places where the Lord was present and at work in their lives.  Jesus’s reply of “Come and see” is an expression of how God wants us to be in a personal and experiential relationship with Him. To know the Lord is simply this.  Only by spending time with Jesus can we understand the deepest yearnings of our hearts, wanting what He wants of us. Through our pondering of the Gospel, we are invited to move beyond knowing about Jesus, beyond adoration, beyond thanksgiving or requesting, to just being in His presence and love knowing that He alone can take care of everything.
