Be made clean

January 7, 2022 Friday After Epiphany Luke 5:12-16 “I do will it. Be made clean.” All of our sickeness can be healed if we humble ourselves and beg God for healing. Nowadays, there is an illness worst than leprosy and I called it SIN. It is more dreadful than leprosy. Friends, sin makes us dirty but our gospel present to us the love and mercy of God. “I do want to heal you!” It is good to ask ourselves: What areas in my life that needs cleaning and healing? We might be the modern leepers of today but our God always come near to us. We have a God who touches the untouchables and love the unlovable. Friends come to Jesus. Give Him your weakness and He will give you His strenght. Give God your sins and get ready to be healed right away. Friends, don’t repeat what we can’t repair. Finally, the healing that Jesus did attracts great crowd of people. The news went viral. It spread all over. He was the talk of the town. But I loved what Jesus did: “He withdraw to deserted places to pray.” Jesus is telling us that it is more important to do good than to be known and popular. Being famous has its benefits but fame is not one of them. Brethren, when the world give you chance to be popular never forget to pray. God’s clap is better than the world’s applause. Work for a cause not for an applause! NB: Isolation is the problem now. Many are isolated. The cure for isolation is compassion. Couple please sleep together. Your bed should be double not single. Sleep in a double bed. Never be comforted in sleeping alone. You are meant to be with one another unless you made a vow of celibacy. Blessings Fr. Jhack
