Mystery of the day: Glorious
"Take heart, it is I; have no fear." And he got into the boat with them and the wind ceased. (Mark 6:50-51)
Most often when we see ourselves at the crossroad of life, we become afraid, as confusion be loud our thoughts.
At that point, we suddenly forget the Omnipotency of the Divine, since we so much trusted in our strength.
Fear therefore becomes the outcome of self-reliance at this point, as it created a sort of lacuna in our relationship with God.
On this note, that Evangelist Mark reminded us of the Omnipotency attribute of God, whose possibility is unlimited. And then becomes a call to connect with the Divine in faith, for absence of faith brings about fear just as what we see in this text:
"Take heart, it is I; have no fear." And he got into the boat with them and the wind ceased. (Mark 6:50-51)
He is a "can do God" his possibilities cut across all boundaries, we need a little of faih to understand this Divine mystery, that in every situation we find ourselves God is in charge.
Neither by our power, nor our strength, but by the spirit of God who directs, teaches, and comforts. This of course will bring us solace amidst calamity.
Finally, put on your helmet of faith in every situation, there and then you will see the finger of God. "Fear not" He says, "it is I." May these Word has fulfilment in our lives through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Peace be with you!
Let us pray
O God, who bestow light on all the nations, grant your peoples the gladness of lasting peace, and pour into our hearts that brilliant light by which you purified the minds of our fathers in faith. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
