Reflection on Mark 1:21-28 Jesus removes the unclean spirits

The removal of an unclean spirit in the synagogue must have been a sight to behold. Jesus was not just teaching, but teaching with authority. They were both amazed and fearful of their fate as they knew they were in the presence of someone sent from God the Father of the Old Testament.
Quieting down the spirits that provide temptation in our lives, that move us away from God and towards another is something to reflect on for the day. We can see the healing touch of Jesus on the man in the picture. Let us be the man healed today.

REFLECTION ON THE DAILY GOSPEL 3 JANUARY 2013

Can we imagine this event. Jesus shows us His humanity and divinity in a single humility filled act, having John baptize Him in the waters of the Jordan. Can we renew this vow each day, committing our lives to His work. With a New Year just upon us, we are renewed again and can face the world with Christ beside us.

The Resurrection is perhaps the most important foundation of our faith. The ultimate act was one of both revelation and proof that Jesus was indeed not just God, but God incarnate and our savior.

Let us imagine being in that empty tomb right now … feeling His presence. How can he fill that presence fully today in our lives.
