In Chapter 7 of Mark's Gospel, we read of the wonderful healing of the man who was deaf and mute. In this reflection, we consider how the Lord heals us in His perfect love, and how we can share His healing love with others.
In chapter 7 of the gospel of Mark, we hear Jesus criticize some of the Pharisees & Scribes with words first delivered through the prophet Isaiah, "this people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, in vain do they worship me." This reflection looks at the intimate and transformational power of the worship of God that Jesus speaks of in John 4:23 "The hour is coming, and is now here, when true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and truth; and indeed the Father seeks such people to worship Him."
