Jesus is all about healing, he invites ears and mouths to be opened. We are called to be open to the presence of God in our midst, to hear God’s voice, and our mouths open to proclaim his praise. Our faith is handed down through oral tradition, through the word of God and by example. We echo the faith as we receive those we meet in our day. The simple command “be opened” invites us to share the faith we profess in baptism and through Eucharistic living.
Lord Jesus Christ,
You opened the ears and mouth of the deaf mute, and he spoke plainly. Open our ears so that we may hear your voice clearly. Open our mouths so that we may proclaim your goodness. Open our hearts, so that we may love more fully. Open our hearts, O God.
Amen
Smitten With Goodness
