I recently began teaching RCIA at my parish and this last Wed., my job was the scripture readings. I was Bartimaeus...for many years. So I could not give my reflection without revealing that, and my first Confession after about 12 years. It was the first time I was able to tell that story to people without crying because every time I remember being forgiven I am just overwelmed by God's mercy and compassion. I really COULD see more clearly after that day because he really did restore my "sight". <BR/><BR/>Now I am reading your words on this beautiful Gospel, and I'm back to crying again! Thank you for the reminder you give us all, and the exhortation to follow Jesus boldly.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.com
