MONDAY 10 FEBRUARY 2020
Mark 6, 53-56:
“In the towns, cities, or villages where Jesus came, they laid the sick in the marketplace and begged him to let them at least touch the hem of his garment; and those who touched it were healed.
We continue to contemplate the life and activity of Jesus. People come to Him and He approaches the people.
Wherever Jesus goes, He creates friendship, trust, closeness.
+ Jesus was close, he welcomed everyone with affection, without rushing. No one felt rejected, forgotten, marginalized or unwanted by Him.
+ Jesus knew how to listen. And not just words. He also listened to what people felt and lived.
+Jesus knew how to accompany. He knew how to be with each person, to laugh or to cry with them. He walked with the people.
+ Jesus knew how to console, to give back hope and the meaning of life. With him, joy was always being born and reborn.
You too, like Jesus, try to live like that. Work to become more like him every day. And you will notice that your happiness is also increasing every day.
Good day.
