Fourth Sunday of Lent: Jesus Heals
This past Sunday we heard the reading of Jesus healing the man who was blind from birth. As you reflect on this powerful scripture, believe that Jesus longs to bring you healing and strength.
Knowing that Jesus sees into the recesses of the heart, where in your heart is Christ's healing needed the most? Is there a place in your heart where you have never allowed the Lord to go? Ask Jesus for the grace to allow his spirit to “rush” upon that place to heal any wounds or sickness hidden there.
“They brought the one who was once blind to the Pharisees. [...] So then the Pharisees also asked him how he was able to see. He said to them, ‘He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and now I can see.’”
Jesus, the Good Physician, knows our weaknesses of body, heart, and mind. He longs to heal us in ways we cannot imagine. Gazing upon the Eucharist, ask Jesus to help you "see” his providential care. Ask for the eyes to recognize his healing presence in your life, and thank him for this healing.
