7th Sunday after Pentecost

Reveal Mercy, Peace and Love

Some of Jesus’s physical healing, such as the blind men, was significantly dramatic, but He usually kept it quiet. While we freely share that Jesus is a part of our life, keeping the details of the why, how, and when to yourself may be appropriate. We should be like Jesus, going to a private “place” to pray, fast, or suffer in secret. There is flexibility to the mystery of quiet.  For instance, if you are in a prayer group that you trust, they may be able to help distinguish what can be shared and how. Spiritual giants such as John of the Cross and Saint Theresa of Avila had such support systems and were given the advice they needed to do so. There are considerable benefits to resisting the urge to explain extraordinary details of our encounters with Jesus. When we do, we focus firmly on humility, obedience, faith, and dependence. This allows us to focus on our combined humanity and divinity to be present to reveal mercy, peace, and love.
