Mark 2:1-12

Saint Anthony, Abbott

In our Gospel reading today, we have a man who is paralyzed and has lost his faith, but his friends carry him to Jesus for healing. His friends have the faith to ask Jesus for his healing, and their faith in Jesus has healed their friend. How is your faith? How do you grow your own gift of faith?

Lord, we come to You this day to thank You for the gift of friends in our lives. Help us to grow the gift of faith we received when we were baptized so we can continue to do what You have called us to do.
