When Jesus and his disciples arrived at Bethsaida,
people brought to him a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village.
Putting spittle on his eyes he laid his hands on the man and asked,
“Do you see anything?”
Looking up the man replied, “I see people looking like trees and walking.”
Then he laid hands on the man’s eyes a second time and he saw clearly;
his sight was restored and he could see everything distinctly.
Then he sent him home and said, “Do not even go into the village.”
Mark 8:22-26
The gospel for weds, was all about the healing of the blind man. Jesus took a man who was blind and after a touch, his eyes was restored. We should ask Jesus to heal our sight because I consider this generation.. a blind one. There’s a genocide and we don’t even see it. There is injustice and we’re too blind to notice. A lot of Catholics are so modern that the ideal of the traditional Catholic Church is becoming more and more abandoned. We’re not conforming to liberation of ones self, we’re starting to revert back to bohemianism…. but bohemianism that is mainstream. what does that mean… we’re living in straight up contradiction. We allow ourselves to be hung on strings and the powerful leaders of America are controlling us.
If we don’t allow God to open our eyes…. then we could forget about the right to be free. Freedom will just be another pretty word that makes us conform to what other people want.
