About Today Readings

St Augustine of Canterbury

Ecclesiasticus 42:15-25. By the word of the Lord the heavens were made – Psalm 32(33):2-9. Mark 10:46-52.

God’s work is glorious!

Today’s reading from Ecclesiasticus is a great shout of praise to God for creation. God has made nothing defective. God is perfect;  nothing needs to be added or taken away from God. God knows all things. God sees the signs of the times and responds accordingly. All things go together, consolidate each other, and complement each other. God is wisdom. God is knowledge.

Through God’s word we come into being, and in doing so we obey God’s will. For God sees all, knows all, and responds to us each and every day. Like the blind man, all we need to do is to have enough courage to speak our faith, Then, as Jesus cured the blind man, we too will be cured of our blindness and gaze on the glory of God.
