Jesus heals Everyone who needs healing.
"He [Jesus] told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not crush him. He had cured many and, as a result, those who had diseases were pressing upon him to touch him.
"And whenever unclean spirits saw him they would fall down before him and shout, “You are the Son of God.” He warned them sternly not to make him known." (Mark 3: 7...12).
Thursday 18th January 2024, is the 2nd Week in Ordinary Time.
"He [Jesus] had cured many and, as a result, those who had diseases were pressing upon him to touch him."
What is it about illness that affects the human being so profoundly?
In the trial of Job in the Book of Job, Satan said to God:
"But now stretch out your hand and strike his flesh and bones, and he will surely curse you to your face." (Job 2: 5 NIV).
I read recently of a billionaire who was near death. He was asked: "What do you desire most now?" His amazing answer was: "I want God."
Faced with the mystery of suffering, the correct desire is: "I WANT GOD." Correct thought is the key to correct action.
“Faith in Jesus and in the power of His Holy Name is the greatest spiritual force in the world today.... " (Blessed Henry Suso - 1290 to 1365).
