Latin Rite Readings:
Hebrews 2:14-18
Mark 1:29-39
He has authority and power to destroy death, He can heal the effects of sin on the soul as well as the body. Him taking on our humanity communicates His concern is for us, so that we may live as the children of God. And so He went about His days on earth encouraging humanity to not be afraid. His times of prayer moved him to act on the will of the Father, not just stay in one place and satisfy the earthly desires of men.
Father teach us to move by your authoritative grace rather than by fear. Amen.
