(Today I am in Columbia, PA, with my 97 year old cousin, Sr. Mary Clare as she celebrates her 70th Anniversary as a religious sister. She is an Adorer of the Blood of Christ and has given 7 decades to Christ and His Church. Please join me in offering a prayer of thanksgiving for many years of Follow Jesus whereever he led her.) “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and are convinced that you are the Holy One of God.” St. Peter gives us this beautiful Act of Faith. He is confused and he does not understand how what Jesus is saying is true, but never-the-less; Peter wholeheartedly believes Jesus and chooses to follow Him even if he does not fully understand what Christ is asking of him. Once we have come to believe Jesus is God, then we too can follow him not knowing where He will lead us.

(Hoy estoy en Columbia, PA, con mi prima de 97 años, la Hna. Mary Clare, que celebra su 70º aniversario como hermana religiosa. Es Adoradora de la Sangre de Cristo y ha dado 7 décadas a Cristo y a Su Iglesia. Por favor, únanse a mí para ofrecer una oración de acción de gracias por los muchos años de seguir a Jesús a dondequiera que la guiara). “Señor, ¿a quién iremos? Tú tienes palabras de vida eterna; y nosotros creemos y sabemos que tú eres el Santo de Dios." San Pedro nos da este hermoso acto de fe. Está confundido y no entiende cómo lo que Jesús está diciendo es verdad, pero sin embargo; Pedro cree de todo corazón en Jesús y elige seguirlo incluso si no entiende completamente lo que Cristo le pide. Una vez que hemos llegado a creer que Jesús es Dios, entonces nosotros también podemos seguirlo sin saber a dónde nos llevará.
