Daily Reflections, 20th July 2023. Exodus 3: 13-20; Mt 11:28-30.

God is present in the midst of our afflictions!

I AM WHO I AM" (YHWH) –
That is the name of God. He does not only exist, but he is present. The eternal and faithful God, sees and hears the cries of His people and is moved by their pain. Through Moses, God promises deliverance, setting in motion a divine plan to lead His people to a land flowing with milk and honey, a place of rest and freedom. In this moment, the hope of liberation is kindled, and the anticipation of the place of rest begins, which finds its ultimate culmination in Jesus Christ who invites us all to come to him. In Christ Jesus the cries of all the oppressed find solace. He delivers us and leads us to the promised land.

Most precious blood of Jesus Christ save us and the whole world!
