Today's question:
"A second time (Jesus) said to him, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?"
From John 21:
15 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”
“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”
16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”

Reflection from Mia and Cindy Yelich
Do you love me? Of course we love you. Love is hard. When your teenage daughter is pushing your buttons….or when your Mom just doesn’t understand, that makes love hard.
It’s what came next that is hard. Jesus responded, “Tend my sheep.” Knowing that because of this statement we should continue to pass on this love and make sure we are helping others to find their way to Jesus.
