Feria


Friends in Christ,

Do we know who Jesus really is ? Herod was concerned about this ( Matt 9:7-9)He kept on trying to see Jesus.
We might ask ourselves the questions, "Why did Herod want to see Him?" and "Where did he look for Him?"
We might also ask ourselves why we want to seek Christ. If we do, is it for understanding, consolation, healing, love, reparation, etc.? Just why do we want Him?
And the second question is, where do we look for Him? Do we seek Him only in a church, the Blessed Sacrament, in others, in ourselves, in scripture, in the media? We are reminded that Jesus said whenever we do a charitable work for the "least of my brothers, you do it for Me." If we are not finding Jesus as much as we would like, maybe it is because we are looking for Him in the wrong places.

Peace be with you... Ed Bakker
