As Jesus passed by, two blind men
followed him, crying out, “Son of David, have pity on us!” When he entered the
house, the blind men approached him and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe
that I can do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they said to him. Then he touched their eyes
and said, “Let it be done for you according to your faith.” And their eyes were
opened. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one knows about this.” But they
went out and spread word of him through all that land.

Reflection:
How strong is your faith in the Lord?
Is it as strong like the two blind men in the gospel? The two blind men were
healed by Jesus because their faith in Him was rock solid. Our strong
faith in Jesus will bring us healing it will bring us inner peace that this
world will not be able to give us.
What does this temporal world give us?
It will give us wealth but not faith, it will give us power but not faith and
it will give us popularity but not faith. This world will practically give us
anything that we need to survive in this world.
But we were not created for this world,
this world only serves as our temporal dwelling because eventually we will die.
After we die we leave behind whatever we have in this world. So, where would we
go if we have no faith in the Lord?
It is only through Jesus that we can
have faith, the same faith that the two blind men had. This is the reason why
their eyes were opened and healed courtesy of their deep faith in Jesus.
How is your faith in the Lord? – Marino
