Our Lenten journey affords us the opportunity to evaluate our hierarchy of values. In our reading today, Jesus encounters a man seeking healing for his son. Jesus utilizes this as a teachable moment that some only seek him out seeking signs and wonders. The father is operating out of love for his son.
Of course, the man should also conclude that at some point in time his son will die as this journey comes to an end for each one of us. The father experienced the promise of healing for his son – an act of love on the part of Jesus. How have you experienced the healing presence of God during this time of pandemic? Have you sought signs and wonders or did you just love Jesus for who he is?
Spiritual Reflection: “How have you experience God during this pandemic?”
Continuing our journey,
Fr. Mark
