And all were amazed

“But Jesus would not permit him but told him instead, ‘Go home to your family and announce to them all that the Lord in his pity has done for you.’ Then the man went off and began to proclaim in the Decapolis what Jesus had done for him; and all were amazed.” (MK 5: 19-20)

We meet Our Lord in our lives in different ways and in different moments, through the sacrament of penance or touched by God’s Word, during adoration of the Blessed Sacrament or after Holy Communion. Whatever Our Lord does for us is not only for us: “go home to your family and announce to them all that the Lord in his pity has done for you.”

“A great prophet has arisen in our midst and God has visited his people.” (Gospel Acclamation)
