“Do you not know that you are the temple of God

and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?”

Reflection:

Paul shifts our attention from brick and mortar to flesh and blood – to the divine presence that dwells among us. If we truly believe that through Jesus God is present in this living temple, how could we violate it through violence, prejudice, hunger, disease, or war? God’s temple is holy and demands our reverence and care.

So, we ask ourselves:

• Is my heart a true dwelling place for God?

• How do I allow the Holy Spirit to fill and renew me.

• Do I bring life, like the water from the temple to those around me?
