Sunday Reflection (February 5, 2023)

Insights, whether divine or not, put events, connections, and situations in a broader perspective. For some Corinthian Christians and us, the spectacle of a shamefully crucified Messiah does not fit our concept of strength and power (1 Corinthians 2:1-15).

Nevertheless, Paul noted that he had the mind of Christ and he connected it with Christ crucified (1 Corinthians 2:16). In Paul’s life, he had become weak to help others; he had given up the pursuit of violence to persuade others by love and example. He embraced the way of love, compassion, and humility. May we too have the mind of Christ!
