Serving the Word: 26th January

TUESDAY 26th JANUARY 2021

Mark 3, 31-35:

“Jesus asks them, ‘Who are my mother and my brothers? And looking at those who were sitting around, he says, ‘These are my mother and my brothers. Whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.”

 

Jesus likes to be in a family setting and to be surrounded by people all the time.

But his family is not made up of administrative data or data from a civil registry.

Not even the ties of flesh and blood.

His family is made up of all those who come under the gaze of Jesus.

His family is made up of all those who are around him and who cross their gaze with the gaze of Jesus and, together, direct it to the Father to know His will.

To do the Father’s will is what makes family according to Jesus.

Because the Father’s will is that we all respect, help, love, value and not hurt each other.

In this way we will be brothers and sisters of Jesus.

Good day.

Antonio Sanjuan Marin, cmf
