GOSPEL REFLECTION: MARK 1:40-45

We may not like it, but generosity and risk often

go hand-in-hand. At least, that’s what Jesus shows

us in today’s Gospel as a leper approaches him for

healing. Until the nineteenth century, lepers were

shunned to the margins of society for fear of

spreading the disease. To touch a leper was to risk

becoming unclean yourself. In today’s Gospel,

Jesus defies convention. “Moved with pity, he

reached out his hand, [and] touched him.” The leper is healed! But this is not the

only risk Jesus takes. Before Jesus heals the man, he knows full well the

desperate nature of his situation. Jesus knows that this man will be overjoyed

upon being healed and that he just might tell everyone he knows. For a Messiah

looking to temporarily fly under the radar, healing this particular leper might not

be the best idea. Jesus heals anyway. It can be easy to become calculated in our

giving. If I go out of my way to help this person, how will it affect my

reputation? How will this charitable donation affect my budget? How could I

possibly make time to volunteer regularly? In today’s Gospel, Jesus casts these

concerns aside. He touches the untouchable. He reaches the unreachable. For his

efforts, he receives a betrayal of his request for silence. “The man went away and

began to publicize the whole matter.” Before long “it was impossible for Jesus to

enter a town openly.” Jesus is forced to remain “outside in the deserted places.”

It would appear, perhaps, that he is unable to accomplish his mission. When we

take a risk to be generous, things might not follow the prescribed path. We might

be disappointed. We also might be surprised! Our witness to radical generosity is

attractive to a world in desperate need. Indeed, when Jesus took risks for love,

“People kept coming to him from everywhere.”—-Cycles of the Faith

EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP

If you witnessed a miracle,

wouldn’t you want to tell

everyone? If you saw the sun

dance in the sky, a

crippled man walk, or the Virgin

Mary appear in front of you,

wouldn’t you just want to shout

about it from a rooftop so all

could hear? Maybe you would be

afraid others would not believe

you. You might choose instead to

keep it to yourself to avoid

criticism and ridicule. At least, if

you saw a miracle, you would

have a choice: to tell or not to tell.

Yet, at every Mass we witness a

miracle. We witness bread and

wine as it becomes the true

presence of Jesus Christ. It isn’t a

saint or Mary appearing before us;

it is actually Jesus! When was the

last time you told anybody about

that miracle? It might not be easy

for us to always talk about our

faith, but we can show them.

When we receive the Eucharist

into our bodies, we become one

with Christ. We go forth from the

Mass as a living testimony of the

miracle that occurred at Mass.

People will not be able to simply

look at us and see the evidence.

We need to demonstrate to them

the reality of this miracle by our

good deeds and profound acts of

charity. That is stewardship. That

is bearing witness to the truth of

our God being truly present to us.

It is something we should want to

share with everyone.—Tracy Earl Welliver,

LIVE THE LITURGY

We never marginalize or turn our backs on those who suffer violence, oppression from unjust

systems, poverty, illness, or disease. Jesus never turned anyone away, but always extended a hand of healing and compassion. He would insist on

extending God’s merciful and unconditional love to all, even if it meant breaking the Sabbath or

civil law. Does the way we treat others, especially those who are different than us, reflect the

freedom, joy, love, and good news of the Gospel?

QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK

First Reading-Ancient Israelites quarantined those

suffering from leprosy out of fear the disease would

spread to others. In what ways does our society make

rules out of fear of the other?

Second Reading-Paul places a high premium on being

Christ-like to others, inviting the Corinthian Christians to

imitate him in this regard. What in Paul’s life do you

think modern believers should imitate?

Gospel Reading-What was the unintended consequence

experienced by Jesus as a result of healing the leper? Did

this surprise you?
