Gospel Reflection

If we do not judge others, God will not judge us;
if we do not condemn others, God will not condemn us;
if we forgive, God forgives us even more;
so let us give, and God will give to us a full measure,
a generous helping, poured into our hands,
more than we can hold.

Jesus, you are the giver and the gift.

Gospel Reading - The Healing of a Leper

thumb

1Large crowds followed Jesus as he came down the hillside.

2Look! A leper is approaching. He kneels before him, worshiping. “Sir,” the leper pleads, “if you want to, you can heal me.”

3Jesus touches the man. “I want to,” he says. “Be healed.” And instantly the leprosy disappears.

4Then Jesus says to him, “Don’t stop to talk to anyone;a go right over to the priest to be examined; and take with you the offering required by Moses’ law for lepers who are healed — a public testimony of your cure.”

. . . . .Matthew 8:1-4
  1. Literally, “See you tell no man.”

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
     hallowed be your name,
     your kingdom come,
     your will be done,
          on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
     as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
     and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
     now and for ever.
Amen.
