Are these the most powerful words of Scripture? A Moment To Pause: Wednesday April 15th 2026

A Moment to Pause - a short daily audio reflection rooted in Sacred Scripture · Apr 15, 2026 · 1m

Welcome to our morning reflection with Mary O'Brien in Dublin on Wednesday 15th April of the 2nd week of Easter.

“God loved the world so much that he gave his only son,

so that everyone who believes in him may not be lost, but may have eternal life.”

Love, at its very best, is always life giving.

God's love for us is beyond that.

The gospel…
