Reflection for September 17, Friday the Twenty-fourth Week in Ordinary Time: Luke 8:1-3


Gospel: Luke 8:1-3 
Jesus journeyed from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God. 

Accompanying him were the twelve and some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, Joanna, the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza, Susanna, and many others who provided for them out of their resources.

Reflection:

Do you want to follow Jesus? 

As an itinerant preacher and healer Jesus was always with a group of people: they were His followers and perhaps His logistical support system as well. They were always there for Jesus ever ready to help and support Him in whatever way possible. 

Who does Jesus represents today? It’s anybody who humbly, effectively and truthfully proclaims the teachings of Jesus. He could be your friend, he could be your father, mother, brother, priest, pastor and anyone who faithfully follows Jesus.   

Anyone of us can follow Jesus nobody in fact is being prevented to follow Him. Why? Because when you decide to follow Jesus your life will begin to have a direction. Your perspective about life will change as well! This is the miracle that occurs when someone decides to follow the Lord. 

You will also be cured of anything that ails your most especially ailments about your mind, spirit and emotion. This is the miracle that occurs when a person decides to faithfully follow Jesus. 

Would you faithfully follow the the Lord? – Marino J. Dasmarinas
