The<\/strong>\u00a0news about the healings in Capernaum attracted a large crowd – so large that people threatened to trample Jesus.\u00a0Without newspapers, e-mails, telephones or television, the news about Jesus spreads to Tire and Sidon, eighty kilometers away in the north, to Idumea, a hundred and twenty kilometers away in the south.\u00a0How could the news about Jesus spread so quickly?\u00a0Suppose one person told another, another person, another person, and so on.\u00a0It was almost as simple as that.\u00a0And so powerful.\u00a0When God acts, one is amazed.\u00a0Imagine<\/strong> that you are there too: you have heard of the healing of the sick, of the revival of paralyzed limbs, of the disappearance of despair and despondency.\u00a0You have already heard about so many healings that you finally dare to think that a miracle could happen to you too.\u00a0Hunger and hope are born in you.\u00a0Hearing about “small miracles” – the easing of hardships, unexpected kindnesses, a good night’s sleep after many sleepless nights – could have the same effect.\u00a0A simple spoken word is powerful, and you can share this good news with others.\u00a0Tell<\/strong> someone about what God has already done in your life, how he manifests himself in prayer, how he speaks to you in the sacred readings at Holy Mass, and what from all this still resonates in your heart.\u00a0Maybe thanks to that, you will ignite a spark of hope or faith in someone.\u00a0You don’t have to dramatize anything or say it to the whole crowd;\u00a0it is enough if you simply and truthfully tell at least one person how God works in your life.\u00a0Then leave room for the Holy Spirit, who will deepen faith in the person in question.\u00a0You don’t<\/strong>\u00a0even have to convince anyone.\u00a0God can do this because his words and actions have power in themselves.\u00a0The world hungers for God, whether consciously or unconsciously, and it is you who can show him how and where you have seen him act.\u00a0However, if you think you have nothing to talk about, ask him to give you the opportunity today.\u00a0Always watch carefully how God acts – by word, encouragement, healing.<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
