Yes. Yes. And again, yes. Thank you for this important reminder that Christ healed not only to relieve suffering but to reveal the deeper wound. We are all Jairus, all the bleeding woman, all the paralyzed man lowered through the roof. We crawl to the hem of the Mystery because we’ve exhausted every earthly cure. The miracle is not just that we are healed, but that we are seen. That God, in Christ, stoops low into the mess of our afflictions, into our irrational hopes, into our stubborn grief, and does not recoil.

To speak of healing today is to risk sentimentality or denial, unless one dares to go all the way down: to the soul’s bruising, to the splinters lodged deep in the will. This is not therapy, it is crucifixion… it is resurrection.. it is the frightening freedom of being loved into wholeness, of no longer being able to hide behind our excuses or our suffering.

You have put it rightly Sister: what’s required is not merely faith, but commitment… the reckless abandon of those who throw themselves at His feet not because they understand, but because they’ve run out of reasons not to.
