GOSPEL  READING:  MARK 1:40-45

 

Leper comes to Jesus and asks him to clean him of his disease. Jesus wanted to heal him but much more than that he wanted to relate to him. He wanted to be with him; he wanted to identify himself with him. He wanted to be one with him and that is the reason he touched him. Only after doing this gesture of touching him he healed him. He made the leper feel at home with him before healing him.

 

Jesus wanted this gesture to remain personal and not to announce to the others. The reason was that Jesus already had a crowd of people following him. Jesus could not travel openly in public. Could this be that Jesus did not want a crowd rather he wanted individuals to follow him (personal following and not a crowd following him). He wanted personal attachment and personal following than a crowd.

11.02.2012 MIRACLE

Posted under Reflections on February 10th, 2012 by

GOSPEL  READING:  MARK 8:1-10

 

The people who came to listen to him were many. They were with him for three days. They were in a deserted place. And the people were hungry and without eating for days and they would faint if they continue to do so. The situation which is presented by the author is quite frightening. In fact the disciples were frightened and worried. This is seen in the reaction of the disciples.

 

Jesus asked the disciples to do something about the situation. They revealed their inability. Even in their inability and in their difficulty Jesus asked about what they have in their possession. From the little they have Jesus could do mighty acts. Jesus needs the little we have to do greater things. The disciples’ inability and lack of things in their possession when compensated by their willingness to share adds up to a miracle in the hands of Jesus.
