1 Maccabees 1:10-15, 41-43, 54-57, 62-64. Give me life, O Lord, and I will do your commands – Ps 118(119):53, 61, 134, 150, 155, 158. Luke 18:35-43.
What do you want me to do for you?
That is the question that Jesus asks of us today. What needs healing in my life? Is there a blind spot that I would like Jesus to heal? Is there a darkness limiting my vision of life? Jesus is waiting for us to ask for healing and life and light.
As we know, transformation takes time, but that doesn’t mean that transformation isn’t real. It begins when we approach Jesus and say, ‘Heal me. Let me see again’. Let us hear this Gospel in hope, trusting that Jesus desires us to see life itself, and one another, in new and loving ways.
