A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John ( 14 : 1-6 ). |
All : |
Glory to you O Lord . |
Jesus said to his disciples :
“ Do not let your hearts be troubled . You believe in God . Believe in me also . There are many rooms in my Father ’ s house . If this were not true , would I have told you that I am going there ? Would I have told you that I would prepare a place for you there ? If I go and do that , I will come back . And I will take you to be with me . Then you will also be where I am . You know the way to the place where I am going .”
Thomas said to him , “ Lord , we don ’ t know where you are going . So how can we know the way ?”
Jesus answered , “ I am the way and the truth and the life . No one comes to the Father except through me .
This is the Gospel of the Lord . All : Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ .
