Daily Gospel Reflection on Veritas Catholic Network
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Today's Catholic Mass Gospel Reading is Mark 8:11-13
The Pharisees are pushing Jesus for a sign. Since we’re in the 8th chapter of Mark’s Gospel, they’ve already seen Jesus cleanse Lepers, drive out demons, and perform many miracles. In other words, they should know that Jesus teaches with authority. Thus, Jesus tells them that they won’t receive another sign, because until they see the sign of Jonah, see the “end result”, they won’t believe.
There is something instructive here. Are we pushing for signs? Are looking for one more when we need to be bold and step out in faith?
Let us pray for the wisdom to know the difference between seeking the sign and knowing the goodness and mercy of Jesus Christ.
