Genesis 3: 1-8
Mk 7: 31-37
Today's readings remained us of our relationship with God. By disobedience we are separated from Him. To be like God is not a sin. Jesus said be holy as my heavenly father is Holy. Our ultimate goal is to be like God in everything. Following the commandments of God we can become like Him.
Most of the time we disobey, we sin and feel guilty
about it as Adam and Eve. But in psalm 32 we are assured that God forgives our
sins when we acknowledge. Therefore we should not be afraid of Him.
In the gospel Jesus heals a man who is deaf and mute.
Pope Benedict XVI said "Since humanity is
inwardly deaf and mute as a result of sin, God became man in the person of
Christ so that we become able to hear the voice of God, Voice of love speaking
to our heart, and learn to speak in the language of love.
Jesus Christ is the bridge between God and us. Lets
come to him be saved.
Today we spend time to know our own weaknesses which
separate us from God.
As we have heard the words of God, May the Lord enable
us to hear and proclaim His word. Amen
