6th Sunday - B (February 14, 2021)

 

Divine Mercy

Mark 1: 40-45

 

“Moved with pity, [Jesus] stretched out his hand, touched” the man with leprosy.

 

The Savior treated the man with divine compassion.  While Jesus could certainly heal with his words, he “stretched out his hand and touched” the man who was not allowed to even come near people.  And by healing the man, Jesus enabled him to return to the community where he belonged.

 

May we trust in God whose mercy is boundless, and who wants to heal and to bring us back into God’s family.

 

And may we imitate God’s way in our dealing with others.
