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 Jesus for healing. Why did they cry when
they could have shouted at Jesus to get His attention? They cried because they
saw 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 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 Jesus? - Marino J. Dasmarinas
