We hear today how the Ark of the Covenant is received into the temple. The celebration, the grandeur, of the great day, and the great joy of receiving the Lord, our God, His presence in the temple.
So we ask ourselves this very day, how are we prepared to receive Him, how have we prepared our hearts to receive the Lord, our God, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, God of the universe into our hearts. For He He wants to dwell within us.
In today’s Gospel, we hear how our loving Lord ministered to His people and He touches all those who come to Him to heal them with love, freeing them of their afflictions restoring them to fill life in Him. And it’s interesting to hear that the disciples were with Him, but they had not embraced the fullness of their calling to be His hands and feet in the world.
Just as we are called to be His hands and feet in the world, to minister to His flock with His love, bringing His healing, love, peace and joy. Amen.
