Here’s
a prayer reflection on John 20:19-31, the suggested gospel reading for the
Sunday after Easter. It was written by
Anne Osdieck.
Gospel Reflection
He
breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.” John 20:22
The Lord God formed
us out of clay
and blew into our
nostrils
the breath
of life.
Breathe upon us,
again, O God.
Guide your Holy
Spirit
into our lives.
Spread in us this
year
your Easter
peace.
Let forgiveness
become our
name.
