Prayer Prompt before reading JN 4:43-54: Come, Holy Spirit, teach me how to pray, interpret the Scriptures for me so that I may know the Truth about who God the Father and God the Son are so that I may know who I am.
Humbly submit your will to God (Thy Will be done) and consecrate yourself to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through Mary and Joseph.
“YOU MAY GO; YOUR SON WILL LIVE.” JN 4:43-54
Today, we learn that Jesus’s Words are life-giving. This story is very similar to the Centurion’s servant in the other Gospels. It is through the belief of the royal official and the Centurion that Jesus can heal with His Words. Today, priests say the words of Jesus to heal, to consecrate the Eucharist, to baptize and bring the Good News to all nations.
Following Jesus’s Words has great benefits. Jesus has the words of everlasting life. His Words are Truth. His Words guide us and give us purpose. His Words are life-giving, when you teach them or share them with others you are giving them God’s life, His grace.
Jesus’s Words are worth waking up early to read, to give us direction for our day, and give us the right perspective (change the way we think; metanoia-repent). They remind us to serve and not to be served. They remind us to be thankful instead of complain. They remind us to praise and worship God for giving us another day to live and bring the Good News to others.
They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering. They remind us that when we sin, Christ is love and mercy, head bent to kiss us, arms spread open ready to bring us back into God’s grace. They remind us that Mary is the most sure path to her Son, we must devote ourselves to her to draw ourselves closer to Christ.
They remind us that we are to put on the armor of God and fight Satan (sin) and grow closer to Christ in holiness living out our baptismal vows. During Lent especially, but every day they remind us that Jesus gave up His life, so that we could have new life, a life with the Father in heaven, eternal life.
Today’s challenge: Take time to reflect on the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Christ. Never leave the Words of Jesus, they are life-giving. The words on Netflix, social media, in our music, and the Internet do not give life unless they are the words of Jesus. Bring Christ into these media.

#Christian YODO (You Only Die Once; We will live again!)
Jesus will always be with us no matter what. He is with us in suffering, sorrow, pain, happiness, etc. He will always be with us, no matter the cost
Jesus was stopped by a centurion in Galilee. This centurion was not a Jew, but rather a Gentile. Despite that, he came to Jesus, and begged him to heal his son, who was very sick. Moved by his faith in HIm, Jesus offered to come with the centurion. The man said that he was not worthy, but believed that if Jesus so wished, he could heal his son from a distance. Jesus then did, and told the centurion that his son was healed. We need to be like this centurion, and trust Jesus completely. If we do this, then calling upon God will never fail. It may not happen in the way you want or expect, but you are never alone.
I think that Jesus is trying to tell us that just go live your life because you will never know when it will come to a end and that he will be there for you when you need him to be and that Jesus loves us.
In today’s gospel the lord heals a little boy who was going to die of a fever the father realized that when the little boys fever was the moment jesus said your son shall live he and his entire household started to believe gods knows when people can be healed just by his word others began to believe as well.
I think that in today’s Gospel Jesus is trying to say that we should not believe only if we see but we need to have faith and believe that what Jesus says is going to come true regardless of how crazy it sounds because nothing is impossible for God. So we should listen to God and make sure we believe not only If we see but believe his word too.
Christ is with us in our suffering. They remind us that when we sin, Christ is love and mercy. His Words are life-giving, when you teach them or share them with others you are giving them God’s life, His grace. Jesus’s Words are worth waking up early to read, to give us direction for our day, and give us the right perspective
“Your son will live” this phrase is what we need to listen to. In this phrase he is not just talking about the son of the man in the story he is talking about us. He is talking about how we will live in him forever and even when we die our soul will still live in him.
Todays Gospel is about How Jesus’s words are words of healing when you sin they’ll forgive you when your sad they’ll make you happy and there worth sacrificing everything to read and understand
Jesus can do anything through His words. Everything God says is very important. God could say anything in the world to happen and it would happen. When we go to Mass the priest goes through lots of words that Jesus says which is why Mass is so important because the Priest is working through His words. We hear Jesus’ words through scripture which is why we need to read our Bible. God has a plan for all of us and we need to listen to His words so we can get the most out of life.
The word of God is very important, and many people don’t read it. Even though we might be busy we should always try to listen or read God’s word or at least talk to him. He wants a relationship with us so bad because he loves us so much. He wants us to talk to him like we would talk to our best friend, he just wants to have a conversation. The word of God is also so powerful, it gives us great advice and really helps us through life. Jesus went through all the struggles we go through and he understands us and reading his word can really help you grow closer to him.
In this passage it says that God is with us in our suffering, this stands out to me because it shows that really is always with us, in the bad times and in the good, He is always there supporting us and helping us. Jesus died for us we have to remember that, He gave everything that He could’ve.
In this Gospel, Jesus does another miracle. He heals the son of a royal officer. It shows how powerful and mighty Jesus is, and that he saves many. It also shows how we need to trust Jesus because he knows what hes doing.
In today’s Gospel, Jesus heals a sick child and after that the father and his entire household believed. Jesus performs miracles of healing and He performed a greater miracle when rising from the dead. Jesus knew he was going to have to die on the cross and He knew that he would rise again. Jesus did so much and provided so many miracles for us sinners and he died on the cross for us. We don’t deserve all of this but God continues to pour out His love for us. We need to show how thankful we are by serving God and living our lives that he blessed us with to the full.
Something that I got out of this was that what Jesus said and does matters. Jesus has the power to raise people from the dead, and cure people from their sickness. We should all realize this and take what he says as the truth. Too many of us have too much doubt in what Jesus does, and we don’t really believe in him, and what he can do. We should put more faith into Jesus, and see what amazing things happen.
This starts off like the Gospel of Friday or Thursday. Jesus says that no prophet is welcome in his own home. He is leaving to go to Galilee. I think him saying that no prophet is welcome in the place we are from is like us needing to branch out and meet new people. When he went to Galilee he was instantly welcomed. Again I think this really reflects on us just having to find new people and branch out and you will find people that accept you. Then a man comes up to him and asks for his help in healing his son. Jesus then heals him on the spot. I think this goes to show Jesus’ power in the way that he can see all and can fix all you just have to believe. The man believed and he went home and his slaves told him that his son was healed. His whole family then came to believe. All it takes is one sign from God and your life will be changed. Sometimes these signs aren’t apparent. Sometimes you have to really listen to them. If you follow these signs God will keep you safe and make your life better.
“They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering. Today God is telling me that we have to turn to God, but even then all of our suffering won’t go away, it means that our boat wont sink even if we do go through a bunch of storms. We won’t know He’s there until we let Him into our life and acknowledge that He’s there and with us. Every single day gets harder, more work, less energy, more weight to carry. That shouldn’t be a problem though as long as we still make time for God and acknowledge that He’s here with us everyday. A simple prayer or even your own prayer to Him will still remind you that He’s there to talk to anytime and He wont share anything with anyone else, just a you and Him conversation, He knows you better than anyone else to ever know you, so act right and talk to Him, its rude to ignore people, and you shouldn’t be ignoring Our God if He’s calling for you to turn to Him. One day hopefully you realize that He is our everything, and not just the key to Heaven, but the key to never ending happiness and love.
This sign that Jesus is shown is saying that whoever comes to him sick, shall be healed. Whoever comes to him broken, gets returned fix. Whoever comes hungry and thirsty, shall be fed and filled. When we are filled with so much sin that brings us down as we are carrying our cross. Jesus will fix your weariness, your brokenness, your sorrow. Everything that you have broken shall be fixed. Let’s say you have a car, you think that is good since it is your own. Your father says drive. So you drive off. You do not pay attention and you crash the car your father has given you. You try to hide it, but you realize that you must tell your father. So you drive it back knowing that you will be punished. He says lets fix it together. He is your father he wants to s[pend time with you, let him into to help you so that you know that you sinned against him. You are not alone in this fight, you have God that is running back to you in this relationship. All you need is to realize you’re a sinner and repent for your actions and you will be healed from your sickness.
“YOU MAY GO; YOUR SON WILL LIVE.” JN 4:43-54
In this Gospel, I believe Jesus is trying to show us that he is all powerful and all loving. When this man comes up to Jesus and asks him to heal his son from his sickness. Jesus seems irritated in my opinion because He seems like he is disappointed in the people for not believing who He truly is.
But still, Jesus heals him from who knows how far away. This shows that he can do anything whether that be miracles or even just talking to us in general. He is always there for us. In this Gospel it also refers to the Wedding at Cana where Jesus had made the water wine. This is another miracle of many that shows us that he is the one Lord.
In today’s Gospel these words stuck out to me
“Then he returned to Cana in Galilee,
where he had made the water wine.”
Made the water wine those are some
beautiful words they are referring to the story
“The Wedding Feast at Cana” When Jesus turned
the Water into wine. Thats a Miricale.
They remind us that we are to put on the armor of God and fight Satan (sin).This line means so much it is telling me that we have to be strong in hard times and to not give in to temptation and it also tells me that to protect ourselves from sin is to trust in god to trust that he will protect you with the armor.
something that stuck out to me is “They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering. They remind us that when we sin, Christ is love and mercy, head bent to kiss us, arms spread open ready to bring us back into God’s grace. ”
this stuck out to me because I think that if you are suffering then Christ will suffer with us, if you are sad Christ will be sad with us.
Jesus gives a lot of stuff to get closer to him. Sometimes we take it for grantide. God protects us with his word.
something that stuck with me when I read this is that we are supposed to put on the armor of God so we can fight sin/Satan and we can win so we dont fall into sin and we can Love God without that embarrestment that we sinned.
“YOU MAY GO; YOUR SON WILL LIVE.” JN 4:43-54. In today’s gospel Jesus goes to galilee.When he got there he was met by a royal official who asked him to heal his sick child.Jesus said return your son will be healed.This makes me feel that Jesus loved everyone even if nobody else loved them.Jesus would always forgive and to good things for bad people
What stood out to me was: “His Words are life-giving, when you teach them or share them with others you are giving them God’s life, His grace.” This stood out to me because if these words are true then why would everybody not follow him. Some don’t because they think it will be hard to follow him, some because they are afraid they will be made fun of and others because they don’t want to.
To me iv’e always seen Jesus as this man who is so loving and so genorous that he will take any pain from you and he will give everything good to you. I think part of the reason i see him this way is because he’s done so much for me and i just will always think of what he’s done for me when i think of him.
In today’s gospel it talks about Jesus’s words heals everyone around the world,especially sinners.His words are life-giving ,he has words of ever-lasting life.His words remind us to sacrifice for God,and reminds us to put on our protection of faith against temptation and sin.Jesus’s Words are worth waking up early to read, to give us direction for our day, and give us the right perspective.
In today’s Gospel God tells us to believe in Him. Following Him will lead us closer to Heaven but in order to fully enter into His kingdom we must believe.
Jesus is telling us today that if we truly believe in the Trinity and live our lives according to the teaching of the church He can work miracles in our lives. Today a man came to Jesus believing Jesus could heal his son, because of his faith Jesus healed the man’s son. If we have faith we can have the same things happen in our own lives. We must let Jesus heal us.
Jesus returns to His hometown and everyone knows about His miracles. The man who Jesus talked to had great faith in Jesus and his faith saved his son. By simply asking Jesus and believing that He can do anything through true faith, anything can happen.
Jesus is telling us today that if we truly believe in the Trinity and live our lives according to the teaching of the church He can work miracles in our lives. Today a man came to Jesus believing Jesus could heal his son, because of his faith Jesus healed the man’s son. If we have faith we can have the same things happen in our own lives. We must let Jesus heal us. We must let the holy spirit lead us in our lives!
“Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.”
I think Jesus is trying to say that most people will not believe in Jesus unless we see miracles to make us believe. It’s amazing how much we forget God in our troubles and our sins. It’s amazing that when he does a miracle THEN we go follow him but if he just talks, we’re not gonna follow him because we don’t think he’s cool or awesome and we’re not in the awe of God anymore, we don’t follow him to follow him, no most people follow him because they wanna see more miracles from him. And that’s not right, we should follow him because we believe in what he does, not because we want to see him do miracles, or because you’re trying to get close to him so he will do anything for you. No! We need to follow him because we believe in what he does and we believe in him.
It is telling me ¨Following Jesus’s Words has great benefits¨. ¨His Words are Truth¨. ¨ His Words guide us and give us purpose ¨. ¨They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering ¨. ¨ During Lent especially, but every day they remind us that Jesus gave up His life, so that we could have a new life, a life with the Father in heaven, eternal life ¨.
“Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.” What this phrase means to me is that God has already shown everything to us and that we don’t need more signs from him because he is already are God.
The Gospel today is talking about how Jesus is truly capable to do anything.”The royal official said to him,
“Sir, come down before my child dies.”
Jesus said to him, “You may go; your son will live.”
The man believed what Jesus said to him and left.
While the man was on his way back,
his slaves met him and told him that his boy would live.”
This is a true example of how anything Jesus says or does will/ is truly true to us.
If you need healing Jesus is the perfect person to go to, he will heal you, if it is truly your fate.
Always trust God in his his works. Todays Gospel shows us God can do anything from making water into wine, walking on water, stopping storms. Jesus can do anything like he showed us today by healing the son of the royal official. Trust in him
“No longer shall the sound of weeping be heard there,
or the sound of crying;”
Jesus will always be taking care of us. Even when we are having a tough time He will always be there for us when were sad, mad, and even if were happy its because of Him that were happy.
They welcomed Jesus into Galilee because they knew what He had done an knew that He is powerful and Amazing.
We have to be able to Welcome Jesus into our hearts just like they welcomed Him.
what God is saying to me is Jesus is trying to heal us and we are but we need to do more if we really want to get to heaven even if it is a s mighty or as simple of tasks we should do anything to get closer to heaven
The message that I got from today’s gospel is that Jesus will always give us the good in life. In the gospel today the official asked Jesus for help and when Jesus spoke, it helped the official’s son get better. I think that we should all remember to listen to Jesus and know that what he tells us is always right and never wrong.
Today’s Gospel talks about how Jesus healed the royal official’s son. Once he heard that his son had been healed, he believed in Jesus. I think that we shouldn’t really have to see a miracle in order to believe in Jesus. Because of the Catholic education that we are given, we take for granted what God has given us. Our education allows for us to be able to go to church and have adoration. Doing that we should be able to get closer to God.
“Your son will live.” This stuck out to me because I felt that Jesus was speaking to me through that quote. I think that this means that even if we die here on Earth, we will live in Heaven! Jesus wants us to believe everything that He says. For example, “Your son will live.” Jesus told him that his son would live. And, that came true! So, believing in what the Lord says to us is very important.
I think God is trying to tell me that there is nothing He cant do. Though Jesus (The word made flesh) He came on Earth and he healed and helped everyone. We should try to deepen our faith and truly learn to trust in Him. We should have faith in Him and also work hard to achieve it because I’ve always been taught that faith without work is dead.
when Jesus said that his son would be healed he went back and his sons fever left at the same time that Jesus said that he would be healed and that tells me that even if we are in need and aren’t going to him he will still help us no matter what.
Jesus wants us to believe without seeing, but humans need to see to believe
“They remind us that we are to put on the armor of God and fight Satan (sin) and grow closer to Christ in holiness living out our baptismal vows. During Lent especially, but every day they remind us that Jesus gave up His life, so that we could have new life, a life with the Father in heaven, eternal life.”
We should be grateful everyday for what we have We shouldn’t make fun of other kids or adults. because that is sin. People can also sacrifice something for 40 days, and people should try sacrificing there things on Sunday to because its not like Jesus just went out of the desert and went back home for a day and went back to the desert. we CAN SACRIFICE
I think today in the Gospel God is telling us that we must really believe in Him so that He can do miracles in our lives. He is also telling us that we have to believe in Him even though there are not a lot of miracles that people can see and know that they are miracles. Faith is believing without seeing, so we must trust in God even though we can’t see Him physically.
“His words guide us and give us purpose” This stuck out because it reminds me of how God will know what is best. when you listen to his words you will be guided in the right direction.
“YOU MAY GO; YOUR SON WILL LIVE.” JN 4:43-54 Jesus healed the young boy just by saying “your son will live” The man had believed in Jesus’ word. Jesus also said “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.” but the man had believed in Jesus’. today most people need to see signs to believe in him, but you don’t need a sign to know he’s there. He is there no matter if you believe or if you don’t believe. You can’t get rid of him even if you really try because he’s always there for us because of how much he loves us. The boy was healed because the man believed in Jesus, Jesus will always help us if we truly believe he can.
“You may go; your son will live,” this phrase stood out to me because there was no doubt, just the statement itself sounds confident. The man believed someone whom he only heard about, he believed Him when he said his son was healed and would live, and he believed Him enough to leave his son to go meet this Man that could have been a liar and couldn’t be able to heal his son, but I think that it was the mans belief that Jesus healed his son for.
Today it was about trusting and the soldier did trust and it saved his son that he believed/ trusting in God.
In this passage it says that God is with us in our suffering, this stands out to me because it shows that really is always with us, in the bad times and in the good. Jesus died for us we have to remember that. He gave everything that He could’ve.
“They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering.” This stuch out to me because Jesus dies on the Cross for our sisn and has to endure pain everytime we do sin.
“They told him, “The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon.” The father realized that just at that time Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live,” and he and his whole household came to believe. Now this was the second sign Jesus did when he came to Galilee from Judea.” I think this means that by a simple sign from Jesus, many will come to believe.
In todays gospel Jesus heals a man and I think that we need to trust Jesus and believe in everything he says because he will help us when we need help.
In today’s gospel the lord heals a little boy who was going to die of a fever the father realized that when the little boys fever was the moment Jesus said your son shall live he and his entire household. I think God is saying that here is nothing He cant do. Though Jesus (The word made flesh) He came on Earth and he healed and helped everyone.
“They remind us to serve and not to be served” this really stuck out to me because we as humans don’t serve God as much as we should, or others. instead we expect God to automatically answer our prayers when we don’t even try. Or we expect others to be kind to us or do things for us when we are not kind ourselves.
In the Gospel today it talks about how God’s words are very important and we need to notice that and that what he says gives us faith and that’s what we believe in. God is the center of our faith and if we don’t believe the things he says than we have no faith in religion.
God’s word can lead us to do amazing things. It can help us get through all the tough times in life. The word of God is what can help us get to heaven. We need to listen to his word and not be distracted by the temptations of the Devil.
Jesus is trying to say that he is worth listening too. His words guide us and give us purpose in life. They also tell us to be thankful instead of complaining. We use his words to praise and worship him.
Today’s gospel is all about Jesus performing miracles. What stuck out to me was the fact that everyone believed that the was the son of God and that he could do these things. In the Bible you hear a lot about people not believing, but this gospel is kind of the opposite. The people in all the cities Jesus went to believed completely and I think that that is really cool.
I feel like sometimes we forget how much pain and suffering Jesus actually went through. It is unfathomable how much he had to hurt to save us. He loves us so much and I know sometimes we forget it.
“The man believed what Jesus said to him and left” His prayers were answered because he believed. We need to put our full faith in Christ. We need to submit ourselves to God to join him in heaven. Trust in Jesus the way the soldier trusted in Jesus.
In today’s Gospel, Jesus is at Cana in Galilee, he is told by a royal official that his son is dying, and needs heeling. Jesus said that his son will live. Then when the royal official went home, his son lived. Jesus has infinite power.
In this Gospel, Jesus does another miracle. He heals the son of a royal officer. It shows how powerful and mighty Jesus is, and that He can save many. It also shows how we need to trust Jesus because he has a plan for us.
A man trusted Jesus despite not knowing him he put his faith in God to protect his child.
They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering. I forget that Jesus had to go through the suffering that we go through today. He did have to go through life like we did. He didn’t give up though. He fought through even when it was hard and wanted to give up. He knew that God was right by his side.
In today’s Gospel, Jesus tells a person that his daughter will be healed the next day. The guy believed him and the next day, his daughter was healed. We need to believe in Jesus that he can guide us to do good and lead us to Heaven. When we believe and have faith in Jesus, we get closer to God.
In todays gospel Jesus heals a sick man. We should trust Jesus and believe in what he says because he will help us and care for us always.
I think what God is trying to tell us when you care for others good things will happen to others. He went to save his son and his son and him got free
Today, the gospel talks about how the man believed in Jesus. The man believed God would heal his son, and waited patiently, and eventually his son healed. Thgis shows that if you believe in God, he will always find a way to help you, even if it may not be right away.
“You may go; your son will live,” this phrase stood out to me because there was no doubt, just the statement itself He is confident in what he says. Jesus knows what he can do and He never doubts himself. On the other hand the man trusted in Jesus. We should trust just like the father did.
Jesus’ words are worth reading, worth spending time to reflect, worth waking up for. Everything Jesus does and says has a purpose. We should want to go listen to the word of God. That’s the big reason for what we are here on Earth to do. Listen to the words of Christ, then go and perform the works of what they say.
Jesus said to him, “You may go; your son will live.” The man believed what Jesus said to him and left. This part of the Gospel stuck out to me because it shows how we can put our faith in Jesus and trust him. The man left and Jesus took care of the boy. We should all put our faith in Jesus and always be able to trust him and make sure we can believe that he will take care of us.
God is our armor and he protects us from dangerous things and doing dangerous things.
We need to have faith and trust Jesus and God. We cannot force love, nor can we force healing or miracles. We have to have faith that God will save through Jesus. Without belief, faith, and confidence in God, we wouldn’t have the true miracles and healing.
“YOU MAY GO; YOUR SON WILL LIVE.” JN 4:43-54
In this Gospel, I believe Jesus is trying to show us that he is all powerful and all loving. God is the one to talk to about everything because you can always trust him and he will always listen.
The official in today’s gospel shows us the faith we should have in Jesus. Jesus told him his son would live, and he did. That is because Jesus is the truth and the light and his words change reality, so there is no reason we should not put all our faith in Jesus, because there is nothing he can’t do.
By following Christ’s example, we can bring The Good News to others and fight sin. If we trust God, we can be like Jesus and worship Him because He saved us.
Something that stuck out to me was that we need to put on the armor that God gives us so that we can fight our sins. We have free will but God gives us things to help us so that it will be easier not to sin. Yes everyone sins but we can control how much we do it or how big or little our sin is.
God has sacrificed so much for us for us to return so little. One small thing he does ask from us is to trust him. Trust him in the fact that we can follow what he says blindly because not everything happening in the Catholic faith is visibly to the human eye. God wants the best for us and has let us come to him with open arms so why not trust him now?
I don’t know about you but I probably have doubted Jesus, faith is all about believing not seeing, putting your trust in God.
the man wanted to see Jesus heal but then realized that you have to trust that Jesus can heal not make sure he heals. otherwise that would mean force not faith.
In today’s Gospel the royal official asked Jesus to heal his son and he had faith in Him. If we have faith in Jesus He will help us. Faith is not worrying about tomorrow and trusting that everything will be okay. The royal official had faith in Jesus and He healed his son.
“Now there was a royal official whose son was ill in Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, who was near death.” This part of the Gospel really stuck out to me today, because it shows the faith of a royal official. The royal official is one who you wouldn’t expect to believe in Jesus and His power. It’s not expected that he would trust Jesus. The man simply asked Jesus, told Him that he truly believed, and was rewarded for his faith. Jesus tested him, but he stayed steadfast. We are called to be just like the official, blindly trusting our loving God to take care of us and answer our prayers.
The scripture said that Jesus is going to create new heavens and a new earth. To me, this says that He is giving us another chance with Him, confession. He created confession so that we can own up to our mistakes and repent so that we can be pure for Him and to enter heaven.
“You may go; your son will live.” I find this verse from the Gospel very powerful because it truly shows how strong Jesus is. Jesus just has the power to tell someone that their son will live which is kind of just bizarre. And the man he told that to believed him. What all matters is that we believe and trust that Jesus does what is right for us because he will give us what is good just as long as we have as much faith in him as much love he has for us.
In today’s scripture what stuck out to me is He asked them when he began to recover. They told him, “The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon.” The father realized that just at that time Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live,” This shows that Jesus really cares about others. He really loves us and wouldn’t be helping people out if he truly didn’t love us. Jesus will never stop loving us and He will never stop caring. Jesus has saved the man’s son.
I admire the faith of royal official from today’s Gospel. While Jesus did heal many people with his actions and visible signs, he also did it with mere words. I feel like this is a foreshadowing of how the mass is today because the bread and wine are changed using only the words of Christ, which makes it hard to believe because humans are visual beings. When we can’t physically see or notice a change sometimes we don’t believe it took place. So I think today Jesus was just trying to tell us that even if we don’t “see” the miracle take place or don’t “see” him present in our daily lives, it doesn’t make him any less active or present.
I think that the gospel is trying to tell us is that God is showing us the way. Its not hard to understand what God wants us to do in life, but even when we know what God wants us to do it isn’t going to be easy doing it. Sometimes we have to go through a lot just for a good grade on a test. That is how it is for God. If we listen and follow our hearts, then we will find the right path for heaven. It’s not like were having to do something impossible or anything, but we have to listen to what we truly want. Some people ignore that goal that God wants them to do and just try to leave a mark on this world so they will be remembered and known. But all you need to do is follow the path God sent you and you can make it to heaven. God wants us to make it to heaven but ultimately it our choice because God loves us and he will not hate us for whatever choice we would make.
I think Jesus is telling us that we cant bring ourselves down or hang on to a sin. Instead, we need to rejoice and leave those behind, go to confession, and pray. God will never be mad at us for sinning, he always loves us and he knows we can always do better.
“Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.” Today this quote stuck out to me in the Gospel. Jesus knows us, he knows us better than we know ourselves. He knows that we do not have strong enough faith to hear something and believe it. He knows we must see signs to believe. Jesus wants us to believe his words without having to see a sign. We must come to him in prayer, so that we can have faith without seeing. Jesus will show us signs and you will be able to feel him in your life and presence if you just sit and pray. He wants you to believe and have hope in Him without having to prove himself physically.
Jesus’s words remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering. Jesus’s words remind us that when we sin, Christ is love and mercy, head bent to kiss us, arms spread open ready to bring us back into God’s grace.They remind us that we are to put on the armor of God and fight Satan (sin) and grow closer to Christ in holiness living out our baptismal vows.
Today I read about When the Galileans welcomed Jesus, because they remembered him from the miracles he had performed last time he was in Galilee. The reason Jesus was there is because of his teaching that no prophet would be welcomed in their native place. Once he gets there it seems like immediately a man needs his help to heal his son. I think this part is telling us Jesus will always be there to help us, and we will never stop needing him, just like how the people in the cities he went to never were not in need of Jesus’ help.
When God says something,something extraordinary happens.His words change things.They heal.He has the power to heal.Come to him to ask for healing,wether spiritual or physical he heals both.But the important thing to do is that we have to have faith in order for God to heal us.
In today’s Scripture Jesus is telling me that we must always believe. That everything will be done in his word. He is the one way and the only way of life. He is the true Messiah. Which is why the royal official turned believed. That sign showed them Jesus is the one true God. He is love in every way. He can raise people from the dead to make water into wine. He is everything. He is the one true God who came from heaven.
People like to see to believe. like when someone says something but it sounds too good to be true they ask to see it to believe. Jesus says this because you can’t see him but you still have to believe so he proved he was the son of man by showing the people.
Jesus is saying through this that he can do something no matter how far away from him it is which also includes (but is not limited to) our souls. No matter how far away we may be from God, he will always come to try and get us to go back to him.
Something that stood out to me was that God will always be with us no matter what we have done and no matter what we will do. This stood out to me because even if we do something terrible God still loves us and he will always love us.
in today’s Gospel Jesus has the words of everlasting life. His Words are Truth.
His Words guide us and give us purpose. what i think that mean is whatever we do
we do it for Jesus and too use words wisely with a good meaning behind them .
I think that this Gospel means that Jesus will always be with us and help us. He loves us and will heal. He preforms mysteries and is a role model for all of us. He believes people can change and do good. He helped the royal official the same way he helps us.
What I think the Lord is trying to tell me is that he doesn’t need a miracle to prove that he loves me he just want to talk to me or just be close to me.
Today’s Gospel tells us to always believe in Jesus. If the man never had faith in Jesus, his son would have died. This shows a great example that we should always believe in Jesus to the fullest and his everlasting love. Good things come to those who are always faithful and who never doubt’s Jesus’s actions.
“Jesus said to him,’You may go; your son will live.’ The man believed Jesus and left. The man asked his slaves when would he begin to recover. They told him, ‘The fever left him yesterday,about one in the afternoon.” In this Gospel, it just shows how powerful God really is, and that miracles can happen with God.
What I think the gospel is saying is that some people don’t really believe In God so that’s why I think Jesus says “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.” and the man that asked Jesus if he could come and see his son before his son’s death he believed in Jesus because he wanted him there with him and when Jesus says “You may go your son will live.” the man believes him and goes home and his son is not sick anymore. So we all have to believe in him and trust him
In the Gospel today it talks about how Jesus saved a man’s son from dying. When the man came up to Jesus and asked for His help Jesus said that his son will live. When he came back to see his son, the sickness was gone. The servants told him that the fever left in the afternoon, the exact time Jesus said that his son will live. This shows us that no distance is too far for God.
Everything Jesus does and says has a purpose. We should want to go listen to the word of God. and we just need to go with it and be a follower
be a sheep in the flock and let Jesus be the shepherd the one that cares for us and will do anything for us and save us from our sins that’s why we need to sacrifice some times because he did everything even if we did not care for him
he cared for us.
In today’s Gospel it is saying that no matter what even if we stop believing in God he will love us no matter what. I also feel that we need to put on the armor of our lord and God and just be loving. The armor of our God is so strong and so powerful which makes it something amazing to have such an amazing relationship with God. There is a man who is asking if God can heel his son from sickness. Jesus seems annoyed because everyone thinks that he is not the true messiah, true savior. But Jesus son of the living God is our Savoir, he saved you from sin he rose from the dead and he could still not believe him after all that he has done? He has shown miracles and has saved, healed, helped and restored others that thought they could not believe in him. But in the end he did we should thank him for all that he has done for us, for our families and even for our daily lives. Let’s look up to him to never give up who we are. He is our role model and we are his followers we should wake up thank him for another morning and the blessings he has given us. Have a good rest of your day!!!!! God loves you so much!!! God Bless!!!
I think what God is trying to tell us here today is that we should have faith in him. In today’s Gospel, a royal official comes before Jesus and begs him to heal his ill son. Jesus agrees and heals the official’s son if he believes. The royal official believes Jesus’s words and leaves. Jesus’s words changed reality and healed the official’s son, and the royal official was happy because he believed. Like the royal official, we must believe in Jesus like the royal official. Jesus’s word changes reality, and where can we experience this change? In the Mass, during the Eucharist. When the priest consecrates the Eucharist, he acts in the words of Jesus and changes the substance of the bread and wine to the Body and Blood of Christ. The Real Presence is a genuine phenomenon that we must believe. Then, we can have total faith in God and let his words change our lives.
I think today’s scripture is trying to tell us that Jesus will always be with us to matter what. “They remind us that if we suffer, Christ is with us in our suffering.”. He is trying to remind us that he will be with us through it all.
In today’s scripture its saying that everything that Jesus does and says has a purpose, be a sheep in the flock and let Jesus be the shepherd the one that cares for us and will do anything for us and save us from our sins that’s why we need to sacrifice some times because he did everything even if we did not care for him.
I think what God is trying to tell me today is that we need to faith in him just like the man did when he asked Jesus to cure his sick son.If we don’t believe in him by ourselves and it is forced then he cant help us but if we ourselves believe in him that he is sure to help us.
In this scripture, it says Gods word is life. And that even when we sin or do wrong, he will still love us and forgive us. No matter what, he will.
