Mark 3, 7-12

by Fr. Luis A. Zazano

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark 3, 7-12

Jesus departed with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him; hearing all that he was doing, they came to him in great numbers from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, beyond the Jordan, and the region around Tyre and Sidon. He told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not crush him; for he had cured many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him. Whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and shouted, “You are the Son of God!” But he sternly ordered them not to make him known.

Called to heal and soothe

1.A need for God. People seek Jesus and follow Him, and there are no boundaries or limits in people’s attempts to grow closer to Him. Today, people keep searching for Jesus and all efforts in our lives are given to Him. We must lead others to Him for them to be healed and soothed. When you give this effort honestly, you enjoy it because He takes care of you.

2.To heal. Firstly, you seek the encounter with Jesus and the second step is letting Jesus heal you. Letting Jesus inside your heart can heal many wounds and pains. There are many diseases, many ailments which need Jesus to be healed. Today, find Jesus in order to let Him heal you. But before, get together with Him, to talk and listen to Him.

3.Son of God. When Jesus is in your heart and when you are healed, you are truly a son of God. He heals you and you recognize yourself as His child, you find your true identity and you are aware of the abundance of his love. God reminds you that you are important and that you have an important mission in life. This is the process you must go through: find God, be healed, find your identity, and identify yourself with Him. Where are you in the process? Can you see yourself in any of these stages?

May God bless you in the name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Always remember, Heaven is our goal.
