class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>John 4:5-42<\/p>\n<p>Jesus came to a town of Samaria called Sychar,\u00a0near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob\u2019s well was there. Jesus, tired from his journey, sat down there at the well. It was about noon. A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, \u201cGive me a drink.\u201d His disciples had gone into the town to buy food. The Samaritan woman said to him, \u201cHow can you, a Jew, ask me, a Samaritan woman, for a drink?\u201d\u2014For Jews use nothing in common with Samaritans.\u2014Jesus answered and said to her, \u201cIf you knew the gift of God and who is saying to you, \u2018Give me a drink,\u2019 you would have asked him\u00a0and he would have given you living water.\u201d The woman said to him,\u00a0\u201cSir, you do not even have a bucket and the cistern is deep;\u00a0where then can you get this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob,\u00a0who gave us this cistern and drank from it himself\u00a0with his children and his flocks?\u201d Jesus answered and said to her,\u00a0\u201cEveryone who drinks this water will be thirsty again;\u00a0but whoever drinks the water I shall give will never thirst;\u00a0the water I shall give will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.\u201d The woman said to him, \u201cSir, give me this water, so that I may not be thirsty <br \/>or have to keep coming here to draw water.\u201d Jesus said to her, \u201cGo call your husband and come back.\u201d The woman answered and said to him, \u201cI do not have a husband.\u201d Jesus answered her, \u201cYou are right in saying, \u2018I do not have a husband.\u2019 For you have had five husbands,\u00a0and the one you have now is not your husband. What you have said is true.\u201d The woman said to him, \u201cSir, I can see that you are a prophet. Our ancestors worshiped on this mountain;\u00a0but you people say that the place to worship is in Jerusalem.\u201d Jesus said to her, \u201cBelieve me, woman, the hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You people worship what you do not understand;\u00a0we worship what we understand,\u00a0because salvation is from the Jews. But the hour is coming, and is now here,\u00a0when true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and truth;\u00a0and indeed the Father seeks such people to worship him. God is Spirit, and those who worship him must worship in Spirit and truth.\u201d The woman said to him, \u201cI know that the Messiah is coming, the one called the Christ;\u00a0when he comes, he will tell us everything.\u201d Jesus said to her, \u201cI am he, the one speaking with you.\u201d At that moment his disciples returned, and were amazed that he was talking with a woman,\u00a0but still no one said, \u201cWhat are you looking for?\u201d\u00a0or \u201cWhy are you talking with her?\u201d The woman left her water jar\u00a0and went into the town and said to the people,\u00a0\u201cCome see a man who told me everything I have done. Could he possibly be the Christ?\u201d They went out of the town and came to him. Meanwhile, the disciples urged him, \u201cRabbi, eat.\u201d But he said to them, \u201cI have food to eat of which you do not know.\u201d So the disciples said to one another,\u00a0\u201cCould someone have brought him something to eat?\u201d Jesus said to them, \u201cMy food is to do the will of the one who sent me and to finish his work. Do you not say, \u2018In four months the harvest will be here\u2019? I tell you, look up and see the fields ripe for the harvest. The reaper is already receiving payment\u00a0and gathering crops for eternal life,\u00a0so that the sower and reaper can rejoice together. For here the saying is verified that \u2018One sows and another reaps.\u2019 I sent you to reap what you have not worked for;\u00a0others have done the work,\u00a0and you are sharing the fruits of their work.\u201d\u00a0Many of the Samaritans of that town began to believe in him because of the word of the woman who testified,\u00a0\u201cHe told me everything I have done.\u201d When the Samaritans came to him, they invited him to stay with them;\u00a0and he stayed there two days. Many more began to believe in him because of his word,\u00a0and they said to the woman,\u00a0\u201cWe no longer believe because of your word;\u00a0for we have heard for ourselves,\u00a0and we know that this is truly the savior of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer: <\/strong>Heavenly Father, I come to the well to drink of your living water, so that I may not thirst for the things of this world but for your will only. Hydrate my soul with your grace, the source of life that fulfills all other desires.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\u00a0<strong>Living Water:<\/strong> How is it that when we drink of the Lord\u2019s living water we no longer thirst? To thirst is human nature. To thirst means we have human needs that require quenching. In our spiritual reality, however, the more we drink of the Lord\u2019s living water\u2014in prayer, in the Mass, before the Eucharist in Adoration, marveling at his creation in our loved ones and in nature\u2014the more our desire for the Lord increases while the desire for worldly things decreases. Only the Lord\u2019s living water\u2014pure grace\u2014can make that transformation in our soul.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leave the Water Jar:<\/strong> A water jar is a heavy vessel and, when filled with water, it is that much more difficult to carry. Reflecting on this can help us to realize that some of the very things we depend on daily, even those that are deemed \u201cgood for us\u201d may actually be burdens too heavy to carry. When we feel overwhelmed by our \u201cto dos\u201d or even by the ordinary responsibilities of our vocation in life, we need the grace to see what\u2019s weighing us down and have the courage to leave those water jars behind as we fall into the Lord\u2019s capable arms.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reaping and Sowing:<\/strong> Like a vain and prideful child we sometimes want to lay claim to our work and shout, \u201cLook at me! Come see what I did!\u201d But the Lord shows us that it is not we who work, but he who works through us. Each one of us is merely a link in a chain of souls who reap and sow for the Kingdom. In the words of St. Frances de Sales, Lord, help us to \u201cbe who we are and be that well so that we may give glory to the master craftsman whose handiwork we are.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord Jesus, giver of life-giving water, help me to drink from your well.

Indeed, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah when the sky was closed for three and a half years and a severe famine spread over the entire land. It was to none of these that Elijah was sent, but only to a widow in Zarephath in the land of Sidon. Again, there were many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet; yet not one of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.\u201d When the people in the synagogue heard this, they were all filled with fury. They rose up, drove him out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town had been built, to hurl him down headlong. But he passed through the midst of them and went away.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer:<\/strong> Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Amen, I Say to You: <\/strong>Amen: so be it, verily, truth\u2014when the Lord speaks, he speaks in truth. Sometimes we question in prayer, \u201cIs that my voice and my words? Or is it you, Jesus, and your words?\u201d We can let our thoughts or distractions infiltrate our prayer, turning the conversation into a task list or a hurried, one-sided monologue. If we \u201crest in him,\u201d allowing the Lord to draw our heart and mind back to him, he reminds us that our prayer time is sacred and intimate\u2014a time we don\u2019t want to rush through, for it\u2019s then that he speaks truth into our lives.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Filled with Fury:<\/strong> Hearing the truth can be difficult. We don\u2019t always like constructive criticism or negative feedback, but it\u2019s a great reminder that we are not perfect, that we need God. Pride and vanity have strong roots, and emotions can be blinding, but we know that when we give our sinful tendencies and emotions over to the Lord in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, we are transformed and our virtue is strengthened. We are more free to be the person Our Lord created and called us to be.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>He Passed Through the Midst of Them:<\/strong> Jesus, at the end of this passage, speaks to us of sin. When we allow anger to dictate our actions and reactions we are pushing the Lord out of our heart. He simply passes by. Our Lord never forces us to behave in a certain way. He respects our free will and doesn\u2019t intrude. However, he is never far away\u2014he always awaits our return, for the storm to pass, for our contrition to sink in. His patience, mercy, and compassion are limitless, and for this we are humbled and grateful.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Dearest Jesus, grant me the grace to always recognize and welcome your truth. Grant me the humility to give my sinful tendencies and emotions to you, and strengthen me in virtue so that I may be free. I want to be perfect as my heavenly Father is perfect\u2014perfect in love.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resolution: <\/strong>Lord, today by your grace I will accept correction, with gratitude for the chance to grow in humility.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For Further Reflection:<\/strong> 2 Peter 1:5-8: \u201cFor this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, virtue with knowledge, knowledge with self-control, self-control with endurance, endurance with devotion, devotion with mutual affection, mutual affection with love. If these are yours and increase in abundance, they will keep you from being idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marjorie Davin is a lay member of Regnum Christi who has served as director of the Women\u2019s Section in the Washington, D.C., area.

As many as seven times?\u201d Jesus answered, \u201cI say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times. That is why the kingdom of heaven may be likened to a king who decided to settle accounts with his servants. When he began the accounting, a debtor was brought before him who owed him a huge amount. Since he had no way of paying it back, his master ordered him to be sold, along with his wife, his children, and all his property, in payment of the debt. At that, the servant fell down, did him homage, and said, \u2018Be patient with me, and I will pay you back in full.\u2019 Moved with compassion the master of that servant let him go and forgave him the loan. When that servant had left, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a much smaller amount. He seized him and started to choke him, demanding, \u2018Pay back what you owe.\u2019 Falling to his knees, his fellow servant begged him, \u2018Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.\u2019 But he refused. Instead, he had him put in prison until he paid back the debt. Now when his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were deeply disturbed, and went to their master and reported the whole affair. His master summoned him and said to him, \u2018You wicked servant! I forgave you your entire debt because you begged me to. Should you not have had pity on your fellow servant, as I had pity on you?\u2019 Then in anger his master handed him over to the torturers until he should pay back the whole debt. So will my heavenly Father do to you, unless each of you forgives your brother from your heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer:<\/strong> Heavenly Father, I give you my distractions, my worries, and my cares and entrust them to you. Grant me the ability to forgive others so that I may live Christ-like patience and compassion in all my relationships.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>\u201cBe Patient With Me\u201d:<\/strong> Jesus shows us through this parable that, like the master of this household, he is \u201cmoved with compassion\u201d when we ask him to be patient with us. When we give in to our favorite \u201cpet sins\u201d\u2014those things we know we shouldn\u2019t do but can\u2019t seem to stop doing\u2014Jesus is patient. When we refuse to obey an inspiration of the Spirit, Jesus is patient. And, if we fall into grave sin, still, Jesus is patient, knowing that our spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. He is always nearby, ready to forgive our sins.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cYou Wicked Servant\u201d:<\/strong> May we never hear these words from the mouth of Our Lord! He gives us all the instruction we need through his word, imbues us with talents unique to our mission, forgives us\u2014every single time we ask\u2014and strengthens our resolve through the sacraments. By his grace and with his strength, each of us is capable of living according to his loving law, so that one day the words we hear will be, \u201cWelcome to my father\u2019s house, good and faithful servant.\u201d\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cForgive Your Brother From Your Heart\u201d: <\/strong>What does Christian forgiveness demand of us? In order to forgive another, we need a heart open and willing to lean on God for grace and strength. As the adage says, \u201cto err is human; to forgive, divine.\u201d We can\u2019t do it on our own, especially if the wound is deep and anger is still present. We are called to will good for the other, to forgive them repeatedly as best we can (sometimes every hour), and to trust that Our Lord\u2019s peace will fill our hearts as we exercise this difficult divine obedience.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord Jesus, help me to be more like you.

Some of them said, \u201cBy the power of Beelzebul, the prince of demons, he drives out demons.\u201d Others, to test him, asked him for a sign from heaven. But he knew their thoughts and said to them, \u201cEvery kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste and house will fall against house. And if Satan is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that it is by Beelzebul that I drive out demons. If I, then, drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your own people drive them out? Therefore they will be your judges. But if it is by the finger of God that I drive out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. When a strong man fully armed guards his palace, his possessions are safe. But when one stronger than he attacks and overcomes him, he takes away the armor on which he relied and distributes the spoils. Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer: <\/strong>Jesus, you are meek and humble of heart, but you are also powerful and mighty (cf. Mt 11:29, Eph 1:21). Come to my heart and reign there always as my King.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>The Kingdom Is Christ:<\/strong> The Kingdom of God has come upon the earth in the person of Jesus Christ. Pope Benedict wrote, \u201cThe Kingdom is not a thing, it is not a geographical dominion like worldly kingdoms. It is a person; it is he. In this interpretation, the term \u2018Kingdom of God\u2019 is itself a veiled Christology. By the way in which he speaks of the Kingdom of God, Jesus leads men to realize the overwhelming fact that in him God himself is present among them, that he is God\u2019s presence\u201d (<em>Jesus of Nazareth<\/em>, Part 1). The people in the crowd could not fathom that God was truly among them, so they thought that Jesus was using Satan\u2019s spiritual power to trick them.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Kingdom Brings Salvation: <\/strong>The Kingdom of God is Christ, and his mission is salvation. St. John Paul II wrote about the saving action that Christ enacts by healing those who have been possessed: \u201cThe acts of liberation from demonic possession\u2014the supreme evil and symbol of sin and rebellion against God\u2014are signs that indeed \u2018the kingdom of God has come upon you\u2019\u201d (Mt 12:28). He continues, summing up the mission of the Kingdom: \u201cIn a word, the kingdom of God is the manifestation and the realization of God\u2019s plan of salvation in all its fullness\u201d (<em>Redemptoris Missio<\/em>, 14-15).\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Kingdom Is Powerful:<\/strong> In the Kingdom of God, there is no tolerance for evil. Jesus came to destroy sin, evil, and the death that it wrought: \u201cThe Son of God was revealed to destroy the works of the devil\u201d (1 Jn 3:8). Satan does have power because he is a pure spirit. But Jesus is much, much stronger. The <em>Catechism <\/em>states, \u201cThe power of Satan is, nonetheless, not infinite. He is only a creature, powerful from the fact that he is pure spirit, but still a creature. He cannot prevent the building up of God\u2019s reign\u201d (CCC 395). The Church, through Peter and his successors, holds the keys to Christ\u2019s Kingdom. The Church, with the authority of Christ\u2019s Kingdom, is stronger than Satan. Jesus tells Peter of this power when he gives him the keys to the Kingdom: \u201cAnd so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it\u201d (Mt 16:18).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Jesus, I believe that you have the power to save us from sin, evil, and death. Your power is stronger than all things. Sometimes I can be dismayed by the evil in this world and forget that you are the God of all things in heaven and earth.

The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength<\/em>. The second is this: <em>You shall love your neighbor as yourself<\/em>. There is no other commandment greater than these.\u201d The scribe said to him, \u201cWell said, teacher. You are right in saying, <em>He is One and there is no other than he<\/em>. And <em>to love him with all your heart, with all your understanding, with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself<\/em> is worth more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.\u201d And when Jesus saw that he answered with understanding, he said to him, \u201cYou are not far from the kingdom of God.\u201d And no one dared to ask him any more questions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer: <\/strong>Heavenly Father, you desire mercy and not sacrifice. Teach me to love you with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love my neighbor as myself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Love God With All Your Heart, Soul, Mind, And Strength:<\/strong> Christianity is not for the weak-willed. Loving the Lord with heart, soul, and mind takes strength, fortitude, and perseverance. To others it may seem that spending time in daily prayer is simply frittering away time that could be used more productively, but Christians know from experience that giving the Lord the first fruits of the day is the very best use of time. It\u2019s calisthenics for the soul and requires a strong-willed, loving heart.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Love Your Neighbor As Yourself:<\/strong> We tend to be very self-aware, knowing what delights us, how we like to spend free time, and what brings us consolation. Do we know these things about our neighbor (understood as family members, friends, and those who live nearby)? Fewer than half of American adults know most or all of their neighbors (Pew Research Center). As Christians, we are called to <em>love <\/em>our neighbor, and the first step is to get to know their names. May we be builders of strong Christian communities for the glory of God.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>You Are Not Far From the Kingdom of God: <\/strong>Imagine hearing these words from the mouth of Jesus. Could there be a greater consolation this side of heaven? The scribe in this Gospel knew the commandments and came to Jesus with a sincere question. He also showed by his spontaneous proclamation that he had been imbued with wisdom from the Holy Spirit, as Jesus acknowledged when he \u201csaw that he answered with understanding.\u201d We follow the scribe\u2019s example when we strive to know our faith and, in prayer, listen attentively to Jesus as he inspires us with word, sacrament, and life circumstances to understand heavenly truths. Then we, too, can be assured of wisdom and understanding as we are drawn more deeply into the Kingdom of God.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Dearest Jesus, grant me the virtues of fortitude and perseverance so that I may strengthen my heart, mind, and soul. With this strength I will be able to concern myself with the needs and interests of my neighbor so that I may sincerely love others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resolution:<\/strong> Lord, today by your grace I will reach out and greet one neighbor whom I don\u2019t already know.<\/p>\n<p>Marjorie Davin is a lay member of Regnum Christi who has served as director of the Women\u2019s Section in the Washington, D.C., area.

one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself, \u2018O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity\u2014greedy, dishonest, adulterous\u2014or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week, and I pay tithes on my whole income.\u2019 But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, \u2018O God, be merciful to me a sinner.\u2019 I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer:<\/strong> Good and gracious Father, \u201cbe merciful to me a sinner\u201d and help me to approach you with the humility of the tax collector in this time of prayer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Pharisee or Tax Collector?<\/strong>: The Pharisee sees only the good he does. Do we see ourselves as \u201cgood\u201d? How diligently do we work to rid ourselves of our pet sins? How carefully do we examine our day for evidence of \u201clittle\u201d venial sins? How easily do we fall into habits of \u201cseemingly harmless\u201d white lies, exaggerations, idle chatter, or gossip? Every venial sin has consequences: \u201cVenial sin weakens charity; it manifests a disordered affection for created goods; it impedes the soul\u2019s progress in the exercise of the virtues and the practice of the moral good; it merits temporal punishment. Deliberate and unrepented venial sin disposes us little by little to commit mortal sin\u201d (CCC 1863). Many of the saints and popes availed themselves of weekly Confession. Do we feel the weight of sin drawing us to this sacrament? The more sensitive we are to our sinfulness, the more readily we run to the confessional.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cHe Spoke This Prayer to Himself\u201d: <\/strong>Humanly speaking, this Pharisee had \u201chis\u201d place in the temple; but spiritually he didn\u2019t realize where he was or who he was. He prayed to himself. He compared himself to others. He thought he knew himself well, but clearly he did not. It can be easy to allow our routine prayer time to turn into a monologue or one long distraction. In those moments we, too, are praying to ourselves. Let\u2019s regroup and approach our time of prayer with a renewed sincerity and an open heart. Jesus will acknowledge our effort and bless us, drawing us ever closer, inviting us to healing and restoration.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cBeat His Breast and Prayed\u201d: <\/strong>The tax collector stood at a distance proclaiming his guilt and beating his breast in contrition. Fortunately, we are not asked to publicly express our guilt and sorrow, except by our presence in the line for Confession. Nor are we expected to keep our distance from Christ. But we are encouraged to be sorry for our sins. \u201cContrition is sorrow of the soul and detestation for the sin committed, together with the resolution not to sin again. When it arises from a love by which God is loved above all else, contrition is called \u2018perfect\u2019 (contrition of charity). [\u2026] The contrition called \u2018imperfect\u2019 is also a gift of God, a prompting of the Holy Spirit. It is born of the consideration of sin\u2019s ugliness or the fear of eternal damnation and the other penalties threatening the sinner (contrition of fear)\u201d (CCC 1451-1453). Jesus offers us intimate access to his sacred heart through Confession <em>and<\/em> gives us the grace to be sorry for our sins.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Christ Jesus, I love you and strive to know and carry out your will, but because I am a sinner I fall short each day.

His disciples asked him, \u201cRabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?\u201d Jesus answered, \u201cNeither he nor his parents sinned; it is so that the works of God might be made visible through him. We have to do the works of the one who sent me while it is day. Night is coming when no one can work. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.\u201d When he had said this, he spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva, and smeared the clay on his eyes, and said to him, \u201cGo wash in the Pool of Siloam\u201d\u2014which means Sent\u2014. So he went and washed, and came back able to see. His neighbors and those who had seen him earlier as a beggar said, \u201cIsn\u2019t this the one who used to sit and beg?\u201d Some said, \u201cIt is, \u201cbut others said, \u201cNo, he just looks like him.\u201d He said, \u201cI am.\u201d So they said to him, \u201cHow were your eyes opened?\u201d He replied, \u201cThe man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and told me, \u2018Go to Siloam and wash.\u2019 So I went there and washed and was able to see.\u201d And they said to him, \u201cWhere is he?\u201d He said, \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d They brought the one who was once blind to the Pharisees. Now Jesus had made clay and opened his eyes on a sabbath. So then the Pharisees also asked him how he was able to see. He said to them, \u201cHe put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and now I can see.\u201d So some of the Pharisees said, \u201cThis man is not from God, because he does not keep the sabbath.\u201d But others said, \u201cHow can a sinful man do such signs?\u201d And there was a division among them. So they said to the blind man again, \u201cWhat do you have to say about him, since he opened your eyes?\u201d He said, \u201cHe is a prophet.\u201d Now the Jews did not believe that he had been blind and gained his sight until they summoned the parents of the one who had gained his sight. They asked them, \u201cIs this your son, who you say was born blind? How does he now see?\u201d His parents answered and said, \u201cWe know that this is our son and that he was born blind. We do not know how he sees now, nor do we know who opened his eyes. Ask him, he is of age; he can speak for himself.\u201d His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone acknowledged him as the Christ, he would be expelled from the synagogue. For this reason his parents said, \u201cHe is of age; question him.\u201d So a second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, \u201cGive God the praise! We know that this man is a sinner.\u201d He replied, \u201cIf he is a sinner, I do not know. One thing I do know is that I was blind and now I see.\u201d So they said to him, \u201cWhat did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?\u201d He answered them, \u201cI told you already and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples, too?\u201d They ridiculed him and said, \u201cYou are that man\u2019s disciple; we are disciples of Moses! We know that God spoke to Moses, but we do not know where this one is from.\u201d The man answered and said to them, \u201cThis is what is so amazing, that you do not know where he is from, yet he opened my eyes. We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if one is devout and does his will, he listens to him. It is unheard of that anyone ever opened the eyes of a person born blind. If this man were not from God, he would not be able to do anything.\u201d They answered and said to him, \u201cYou were born totally in sin, and are you trying to teach us?\u201d Then they threw him out. When Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, he found him and said, \u201cDo you believe in the Son of Man?\u201d He answered and said, \u201cWho is he, sir, that I may believe in him?\u201d Jesus said to him, \u201cYou have seen him, the one speaking with you is he.\u201d He said, \u201cI do believe, Lord,\u201d and he worshiped him. Then Jesus said, \u201cI came into this world for judgment, so that those who do not see might see, and those who do see might become blind.\u201d Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and said to him, \u201cSurely we are not also blind, are we?\u201d Jesus said to them, \u201cIf you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you are saying, \u2018We see,\u2019 so your sin remains.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Prayer:<\/strong> Lord, you know how blind I am to your presence and your work in my life. In this time of prayer, I renew my faith\u2014I <em>do <\/em>believe in your enduring presence. I renew my hope in your promise of eternal life. I love you for the work you have already done and are continuing to do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>The Works of God: <\/strong>Jews of the first century commonly regarded blindness (or any physical ailment, for that matter) a manifestation of sin. They asked Jesus, therefore, <em>who <\/em>it was who sinned. Jesus responded: \u201cNeither he nor his parents sinned; it is so that the works of God might be made visible through him.\u201d St. Paul recounted that the Lord once told him, \u201cMy grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness\u201d (2 Cor 12:9). God\u2019s power becomes perfectly manifest in the poverty and blindness of our human condition, especially when we are open to his grace and his work in us.\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Transformation of Healing: <\/strong>After Christ healed the blind man, the Pharisees had trouble recognizing him: \u201cIsn\u2019t this the one who used to sit and beg?\u201d The work of Christ in us, which heals and converts us, is a transformative work that can change the way we are perceived by others. The season of Lent is the perfect time to allow the Lord to perfect this transformation in us, but it can come at a cost. People who think they know us might be tempted to criticize us for our Lenten fasts or mortifications, claiming we\u2019re no longer the same person. Are we willing to endure this criticism, if it means transformation into Christ?\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cEven If My Father and Mother Forsake Me\u2026\u201d:<\/strong> The transformation that Christ worked in the blind man had serious repercussions for him: people didn\u2019t recognize him, and his own parents distanced themselves from him. \u201cHe is of age; question him,\u201d his parents said. However, he was not totally forsaken. Jesus approached him and revealed himself to be the Son of Man. For the ex-blind man, the words of Psalm 27 came true: \u201cEven if my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will take me in\u201d (Ps 27:10). We need faith to seek out Christ when friends and family seem to misunderstand or reject us.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord Jesus, enlighten the eyes of my heart, to see you for who you truly are: the Son of Man, the Savior of the world. Give me the strength to be able to cling to you, even when those I love seem to reject me or distance themselves from me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resolution:<\/strong> Lord, today by your grace I will extend my friendship to someone in my workplace or school who seems to be an outcast.<\/p>\n<p>Brian Flanagan is a Regnum Christi member from Atlanta,
