IV. Lord
448
Very often in the Gospels people address Jesus as “Lord”. This title
testifies to the respect and trust of those who approach him for help and healing.62
At the prompting of the Holy Spirit, “Lord” expresses the recognition
of the divine mystery of Jesus.63 In the encounter with the risen
Jesus, this title becomes adoration: “My Lord and my God!” It thus
takes on a connotation of love and affection that remains proper to the
Christian tradition: “It is the Lord!”64
