Reflection for December 2 Friday of the First Week of Advent: Matthew 9:27-31

Gospel: Matthew 9:27-31

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:

What are you willing to do to receive healing from God? Are you willing to humble yourself and kneel before God and ask Him to give you the gift of healing? Healing is a gift that Jesus freely gives to those who have faith. Even if you will not ask for it Jesus will give it to you for as long as you humble yourself and have faith in front of Him. 

In the gospel for this Friday we have two humble blind men with rock-solid faith who cried to the Lord for healing.  Why did they cry when they could have shouted at Jesus to get His attention? They cried because they felt hope, mercy and healing from Jesus. For the two blind men Jesus was their only hope to have the gift of sight. 

Let us also ask Jesus to give us the gift of Healing for nothing is impossible for those who believe and humble themselves before God. Even the impossible is very much possible for as long as we have faith. 

Whatever that you’re going through right now, believe that Jesus will heal you. And believe that He will answer your prayers for nothing is impossible for Jesus. This is best exemplified by the two incredible blind men of deep faith in our gospel.  

How’s your faith in the Lord? - Marino J. Dasmarinas

Ang Mabuting Balita para sa Disyembre 2 Biyernes sa Unang Linggo sa Panahon ng Pagdating ng Panginoon: Mateo 9:27-31

Mabuting Balita: Mateo 9:27-31

Noong panahong iyon, pag-alis ni Hesus sa lugar na iyon, sinundan-sundan siya ng dalawang lalaking bulag. Sumisigaw sila na ang wika, “Anak ni David, mahabag kayo sa amin!” Pagpasok ni Hesus sa bahay, lumapit sa kanya ang mga bulag. Tinanong sila ni Hesus, “Naniniwala ba kayo na magagawa ko ito?” “Opo, Panginoon,” sagot nila. 

At hinipo niya ang kanilang mga mata, at sinabi, “Mangyari sa inyo ang ayon sa inyong paniniwala.” At hinipo niya ang kanilang mga mata at sinabi, “Mangyari sa inyo ang ayon sa inyong paniniwala.” At nakakita na sila. Mahigpit na ipinagbilin sa kanila ni Hesus na huwag sasabihin ito kaninuman. Ngunit nang sila’y makaalis, ibinalita nila sa buong lupaing yaon ang ginawa sa kanila ni Hesus.
