GOSPEL READING: MATTHEW 9:18-26

In today’s gospel passage we see two people who believed in Jesus. One was an official and the other was a woman suffering from haemorrhages. The official expressed his faith and the other did not express it openly but believed within her. Jesus worked miracle for the people who have faith in him either openly expressed or had faith internally.

The crowd that followed him might have believed in him. They did not see the miracle worked on the woman. They could not witness it. But the crowd at the house of the official did not believe in him. They ridiculed him because he was speaking of something which was humanly impossible. But the faith of the one believing person among the crowd that ridiculed him worked miracle.

இயேசுவை பின்பற்றபவர்களில் நம்பிக்கைகொண்டவர்களும் இருந்தார்கள் அவரைப்பார்த்து நகைத்தவர்களும் இருந்தார்கள். நம்பிக்கை கொண்டவர்கள் புதுமைகளைக் கண்டார்கள். நம்பிக்கை ஆழ்மனத்தில் இருந்தாலும் சரி அல்லது வெளிப்படுத்தப்பட்டாலும் சரி.

GOSPEL READING: Mt 11: 25-30

Wise and the learned do search for truth. They search after hidden truths. Most of the times they do not arrive at the truth. They reach somewhere and think that they have arrived.

Truth about God and godly things are revealed. They are not arrived at by knowledge and search rather they are totally given in revelation. God has desired it that way. And that is his will.

God has revealed these things to them to the childlike people. Revelation is not given to the wise and the learned but to the childlike. This is the way that God works.
The best of revelation that God has given is the revelation about his own son Jesus (anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him). God communicates with the people only through revelation.

உண்மையை தேடுதலே ஞானிகளின் முயற்சி. ஆனால் கடவுளைப்பற்றிய உண்மை வெளிப்படுத்தப்படுகிறது. வெளிப்படுத்தலை ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளக்கூடிய குழந்தை உள்ளம் தேவை.
