In the gospel reading
Jesus identifies himself as the shepherd: “My sheep hear my voice. I know

our greatest protection and shepherding comes from within. Take the time to
listen to Jesus. Spend some quality time this week with Jesus. Just a few
minutes to listen quietly or reflect on his words can change your day. That is
how we are nourished. And that is how we can be judged.

Jesus then explains just what Peter's love and leadership will require, foretelling Peter;s death by crucifixion: "you will stretch out your hands". This is agape love, that is self-forgetting love. Mother Theresa of Calcutta speaks of 'loving till it hurts'. That is Christian love. Can we love this way? Can we love the way Jesus loved?
