Gospel: Mark 3:7-12
whenever they saw him, they would fall down before him and cry out, “You are the Son of God.”
But he warned them sternly not to tell anyone who he was.
REFLECTION:
The demands of modern day high cost of living drive people today to devote more time for work, to earn more.
Everyone deserves to live a decent and dignified way of life. However, the drive to have more can be very dangerous both to ones’
health and family relations. This can distract us from the most essential in life - eternal life. The people’s desire in the gospel
today is not for more money but for Jesus, who they recognize as the Son of God. They are focused on Jesus so they follow him everywhere he goes.
This is an invitation for us to ask ourselves – what/who is the goal of our life? Why do I follow Jesus?
