## Resource

Behold a spiritual reflection on a recent visit to an archbishop of Cagayan de Oro, reminding listeners of the transition from the Easter season to Pentecost. Centering on the Gospel of John, the narrative explores an intimate dialogue in which Jesus asks Peter to demonstrate his love through unwavering discipleship. The commentary warns against the distraction of comparing one’s own life or suffering to others, using an anecdote about a focused parishioner to emphasize staying centered on God. Ultimately, I encourage believers to move past judgmental curiosity and instead prioritize a personal, loyal commitment to following Christ.
