2 Thur Jan 22 2015): Scripture: Mark 3:7-12 

All pressed upon Jesus

   Is there anything holding you back from giving yourself to God without fear or reservation?

   Jesus offered freedom to everyone who sought him out.

   Wherever Jesus went, the people came to him because they had heard about all the wonderful deeds and miracles that he performed.

   They were hungry for God and desired healing from their afflictions.    

   In faith, they pressed upon Jesus to touch him.

   As they did so, power came from Jesus and they were healed.

   Let us seek to lay hold of Jesus' presence in our life that he may touch and heal each and every one of us.

 

   Father, Inflame our hearts with a burning love for you and with an expectant faith in your saving power, through Christ our Lord.

 

Finnish Catholics and Lutherans visit Vatican A delegation of Catholics and Lutherans visited Rome today, Feast of St Henry patron saint of Finland,  during the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. In his address to the Finnish delegates, Pope Francis applauded the progress achieved in ecumenical dialogue between the two Churches over the last thirty years and said: “a shared Christian witness is very much needed in the face of the mistrust, insecurity, persecution, pain and suffering experienced so widely in today’s world.”
