To read the texts click on the texts: 1Kgs 8:1-7,9-13; Mk 6:53-56
The text of today is a summary statement of the activities of
Jesus, but deals only with his healing activity. Numerous people sensing that
Jesus was able to make them whole came to him from every part of village, city
or country. All of them were healed. Through this Mark brings out both the need
of the people for healing and the willingness and ability of Jesus to make
people whole.
A kind word or an enhancing action on our part is enough to
boost the spirit of people. Sometimes a short visit to someone who is sick or
in pain, a positive word of encouragement to someone who has experienced
failure or a word of praise to someone who has done well and succeeded will do
wonders in helping these to become whole and glory in their selfhood.
