YOU CAN CURE ME

After Jesus had come down from the mountain large crowds followed him.  A leper now came up and bowed down low in front of him.
"Sir if you want to, you can cure me."

Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him and said,
"Of course I want to! Be cured!." And his leprosy was cured at once.

The Jesus said to him, "Mind you do not tell anyone, but go and show yourself to the priest and make the offering prescribed by Moses, as evidence for them."  Mass Readings

Lord Jesus Christ, teach me to be humble. Thank you for caring
for my needs. You do not overlook any details. To protect the man
from authority, and his integration into the society, you asked him
to show himself to the priest and make the prescribed offering. Psalm 13


Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina: The most beautiful credo is that which comes from your lips in darkness, in sacrifice, in pain, in supreme effort an unbending will for good.

It is this which like a strong bolt of ligthning penetrates the darkness of soul; it is this which in a flash of the tempest lifts you and leads you to God.
