Twenty-first Sunday of Ordinary Time
Who Do You Say That I Am?
Introduction to the Liturgy of the Day
Today we hear Jesus challenge his disciples. “Who do you say that I am?” he asks them, after asking them what others say. Saint Peter responds at once, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
We are the disciples who Jesus challenges now. How do we answer this question? As we encounter him here today and receive him in the Eu- charist, let us think of who Jesus is for us.
