Daily Bible Reflections - January 23,2013


HAVE A SEAT

 
“Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than to destroy it?” – Mark 3:4
 
I saw a picture on Facebook that touched my heart. It had 179 comments and 2,083 shares, including mine. It was a photo of a guy waiting in a terminal with a woman, a very old man — probably his father — and their baggage.
So, what was so moving about it?
Without any chairs to sit on, the guy sacrificially squatted on the floor and let the old man sit on his lap as he secured him from falling by embracing him. It was not a comfortable position for the guy, but it gave relief to the old man as they waited for their ride.
The guy’s good deed toward the old man is a good example of Jesus’ compassion and love. Their picture brought hope and it inspired me to be kinder even through simple acts. I’m pretty sure those who liked and shared this FB postfelt the same.
In spite of persecutions, Jesus healed people even on the Sabbath, giving comfort and love to those in need. He planted hope and inspiration in the hearts of people.
This 2013, don’t let time, place, people or situations stop you from being Jesus to others. Ma. Luisa De la Cruz (theessence_byluisa@yahoo.com)
 
Reflection: How can you ease someone’s suffering today?
 


Dear Jesus, unite my heart, mind and soul with You. Help me make my life a fragrant offering to the Father.

 
Blessed Mother Marianne Cope, pray for us.
