REFLECTION ON THE DAILY GOSPEL 13 SEPTEMBER 2011

I can imagine this poor widow mourning the loss of her son.

A simple command from Jesus and he is returned to her. This act now proclaims God’s presence in Jesus in their words “God has visited his people”.

We need that visiting in both good and bad times. He will be there for us.

REFLECTION ON THE DAILY GOSPEL 12 SEPTEMBER 2011

Jesus proves his way is open to anyone, regardless of religion or nationality.

Faith in his Word was proved by the Centurion’s belief in God’s power to heal. He also offered respect along with his faith, removing all doubt from his expectations.

Just say the Word and he will be healed.

 

Gospel Lk 7:1-10
