Fifth Sunday after Pentecost July 5, 2020

The Jesus movement, we follow Jesus.
The "wise" want to frame everything in their own context to justify their actions. People can't please a "wise" person. Sometimes for a person to listen, is to listen with humility and without ego. The story of the wounded healer, who tired of being "wise", tired of being "right'. Feelings of hopelessness, being lost and in despair. Being willing to listen like a child with innocence and with out judgement is hard for those who have lived a certain way with certain beliefs their whole lives. They feel threatened. "Who is this Messiah? Who is this Christ, who seeks to liberate the people from the yoke of the Romans?" Under the grace that Jesus gives, we are loved and learn through time how complicated and majestic the universe is. Our God of infinite love and mercy became human to teach us to let go of our ego, to listen, and to love and serve. Today give thanks for God, for freedom, and for who you are. That you are loved and you are redeemed. Blessings, Fr. Mark |
