CATHOLIC DAILY DEVOTIONAL TODAY 7TH FEBRUARY 2022
TODAY’S TOPIC: MIGHTY HEALING
SCRIPTURE: Whatever villages or towns or countryside he entered, they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might touch only the tassel on his cloak; and as many as touched it were healed.
Mark 6:56
We often read Gospel accounts about Jesus healing specific individuals. So, this passage is striking for its grand sweep. The sick arrive in droves from “villages or towns or countryside” laid out in the “marketplaces.” Earlier in this chapter, we had the feeding of the five thousand; now we have the healing of the five thousand! In both cases, the love of Christ is without limits; a few rolls, a couple fish yield an excess of leftovers; likewise, “as many as touched [his tassel] were healed.” That’s some tassel!
Can we become just as humble, just as grateful, just as close to Jesus? Pope Francis quotes the peasant praying before the Blessed Sacrament who told the Curé of Ars: “I look at him, and he looks at me.” Simple as that, and grace multiplies to overflowing! – Miguel Dulick
MORE SCRIPTURE: 1 Kings 8:1-7, 9-13 • Psalm 132:6-10; Mark 6:53-56
