In this weekend’s Gospel (Mk 1:40-45) Jesus tells the healed leper to say nothing about the miracle that was preformed. This seems strange at first because you would think Jesus would want everyone to know he was God incarnate, and share the Good News.
My two sons are now three and four years old, and if there is anything in this world that love it is dinosaurs. They eat, sleep and breath dinosaurs. If we go on family walks, they stop strangers on the street to preach the ‘Gospel of Dinosaurs.’
Yesterday I had lunch with a friend who had just received bad news. It was the kind of news where I wanted to be supportive, but was truly at a lose for words. I wished I could have made him laugh, or lightened his load, but I didn’t know what to say. I think I gave him a little hope, but I am not even sure if I was successful in that. We just talked, and I told him I was sorry over and over.
