Today the Gospel tells the story of a blind beggar named Bartimaeus who cries out to Christ so that he may see again. In this great miracle he sees Christ as the Son of God and follows Him. May we always cry out to the Lord so that we may see as God sees---seeking to be instruments of mercy and love in the world.

This weekend the Gospel reminds us to be servant of all like Christ. James and John wanted to sit on the left and right hand side of Jesus in the kingdom without really understanding the call of faith is to be humble and slave of all. We can't get caught up in fame or fortune but of humble and loving service--this makes us rich in the eyes of God.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! As we give thanks for the countless blessings in our lives we are called in the Gospel this weekend to inherit eternal life by changing our lives---becoming Christ by following the rules, re-organizing our priorities and then live differently following Christ. This may seem impossible but for God all things are possible.

The Gospel this weekend reminds us to take account and purge things that take us away from God's love and path while embracing a deeper spiritual life to draw close to the Lord. Jesus in the Gospel also challenges us not to be stumbling blocks or obstacles for others drawing them away from the path of eternal life. This Gospel gives us lots to think about!!
