Praised Be Jesus Christ!
Today's Gospel Reading is Matthew 8:1-4. A Leper comes to Jesus and says, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean”. Jesus does will it and he continues to will healing for us. In the biblical imagination, leprosy is symbolic of what happens in the soul because of sin. So Jesus is showing us that he not only wills to heal our bodies in our ailments, but He wills to give us His mercy and love.
Jesus, please will the healing of our soul, those place in our souls that have “rotted away”. Lord, make us clean.
