Our Lady of Lourdes- the fullness of grace
Gen 2:4b-9, 15-17; Mk 7: 14-23
Can Jesus be more plain? However the point he is making is not about what is to be eaten and what not...but what is the right disposition that justifies a person; his or her choices, habits and behaviour. What matters most, Jesus declares, is the internal disposition of a person, and not the external appearance.
Celebrating Our Lady of Lourdes today, we are inspired to thank God for the great gift of her person and the fullness of grace that she possessed. In her maternal love she communicates that grace to the entire humanity. Today not just we, but even the world at large remembers as the world day of health. Our prayer today is that we journey intently towards that fullness that God challenges us to.
