The Gift of Faith

And everywhere Jesus went, to villages, towns, or farms, people would take those who were ill to the market places and beg him to let them at least touch the edge of his cloak; and all who touched it were made well.
Mark 6:56 GNBDK

Reflection:
We want to reason out everything in life, want to things to happen in our time. But God has created everything in his time, and we are called to have faith. Faith is a gift for it brings about hope, where there is despair, it helps us see the silver lining in dark clouds. It is by our faith we are made well, and when we reason, we are not allowing ourselves to exercise the gift of Faith. Know that Jesus rose on the third day, not at the very instant he died. For God can do all things, but will do it, in his time.

Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to be patient and persevere the good work in faith, knowing that Jesus is by your side and is your source of strength and solace. May his Holy Spirit keep you rooted to your faith. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones:)
