Gospel Mk 1:40-45
How did the leper come close to Jesus when the lepers are commanded to shout "unclean unclean" and keep their distance from the community. Some people speculate that he hid himself so he can go unnoticed and be able to approach Jesus. Who the communities treated as unclean approached Jesus.
Even if no one would accept us, God will always be willing to embrace us. The leper, humbled himself and didn't blame God for his suffering but rather accepted it. Is he asking the Lord to heal him or is he opening himself to the desire of God that he may be healed. To pray to God is to open ourselves to his will which is, primarily, to unite himself to us and free us from sin which brought death and suffering to mankind. We should always seek first the kingdom of God and everything else will follow. As St. Paul had said, everything works for the one who loves the Lord.
The leper trusted that God can do anything that he wills. We ask the Lord to forgive us of our sins. His mercy not only erases our sins but also transforms us. We have to show ourselves to the Father as the prodigal son did so that by his love, we can be brought back to life.
God was moved by pity seeing man affected by sin and even touched the one they consider as unclean. An unclean person is not cleansed just by leaving him alone but by accommodating them to Jesus which mean to let Jesus touch them and approach them. We have to believe that we are cleansed and made holy by the touch of Jesus.
Jesus moved with compassion touched the man. The Lord wants to embrace us and touch us. He is always there in the sacraments so he can meet us, talk to us and in the Eucharist, be able to touch us. Jesus wants to let us know that he is always waiting for us like the Father in the parable of the prodigal son. When we pray, it the reality is we are not to change God's mind to be merciful to us. In prayer, we respond to his constant offer to love us and to bless us.
Jesus shows the importance of the priestly authority to incorporate us back into the Church. The healing took place when the law of Moses was still effective so Jesus ask the man to follow the law. The rites in the law of Moses point to what Christ will fulfill that includes the sacraments. This also tells us that we have to be freed from sin so we can be united to the Church, the body of Christ. The healing of our souls is a greater healing than the healing of the body.
We should be very happy and let other people know the healing that Jesus does when we encounter him in the sacraments. The people were so eager to approach Jesus for physical healing but they don't keep the same enthusiasm for spiritual healing.
Formerly, the leper was distancing himself from the people and now there is a role reversal, the leper is once again incorporated into the community in exchange for the inability of Jesus to enter openly. The people cannot see Jesus when they don't have the right perception of his identity and mission.The leper was instructed by Jesus to tell no one that he got healed but the man didn't listen. It's not that Jesus didn't want the Gospel to reach more people, but the people envisioned a different kind of messiah. As a result, many people approached Jesus for the wrong reason to the point that Jesus had to distance himself from them. He wanted the people to understand who Jesus really is.

Reading 1 Jas 1:1-11
Responsorial Psalm Ps 119:67, 68, 71, 72, 75, 76
Gospel Mk 8:11-13
Sinubukan ba ninyong alamin ang kalooban ng Panginoon at kung minsan ay naghahantay ng mga malakas na palantandaan upang malaman natin ang sagot niya sa atin?
Sa proseso ng pag-alam ng kalooban ng Diyos, mahalaga na makinig tayo sa ibinubulong ng ating puso sa oras ng katahimikan. Pakinggan natin sa bulong na ito kung paano tayo susunod sa tinig ng Panginoon. Madalas nga, ay inuumpisahan ito sa paglista sa mga pagpipilian at sa mga dahilan sa bawat pagpipilian. Matapos nito, sa loob ng pagdarasal ay papakinggan natin kung saan natin mararanasan ang katahimikan at kaligayahan upang makapaglingkod sa Kanya. Nangungusap Siya mismo sa ating mga puso at nalalaman natin ang sagot Niya sa oras na ang ating kalooban ay kaisa ng Kanyang kalooban. Sinabi nga sa kuwento ni Propeta Elijah, wala ang Panginoon sa malakas na hangin o sa lindol. Ang tinig niya ay pabulong na maririnig natin sa ating mga puso.

Reading 1 Jas 1:12-18
Responsorial Psalm Ps 94:12-13a, 14-15, 18-19
Gospel Mk 8:14-21
Tinitignan ba natin kung karapat-dapat ang ating mga hinihingi sa Panginoon? Ang mga ito ba ay mga bagay na hinihiling ng mga tunay na anak ng Diyos?
Nagdadasal tayo na manalo ang ating paboritong koponan sa basketball, na sana ay manalo si Manny Pacquiao sa boksing, sana ay yumaman tayo, sana ay magkaroon tayo ng magagarang mga damit. Ang mga hiling na ito ay 'di mismong masasama ngunit dapat nating tiyakin na ang mga hangarin natin sa paghiling ng mga bagay na mga ito ay para sa ikaluluwalhati ng Diyos at para sa pagmamahal at paglilingkod sa ating kapwa.
Ganon din sa pagbasa ng bibliya na dapat ay nakaugat, 'di upang madagdagan lamang ang impormasyon sa ating mga utak, sa halip ay dahil sa kasabikan natin na makapiling si Hesus at hayaan siyang mangusap ng may puno ng pagmamahal sa atin.

Reading 1 Jas 1:19-27
Responsorial Psalm Ps 15:2-3a, 3bc-4ab, 5
Gospel Mk 8:22-26
Napapansin niyo ba na tuwing Linggo, mayroong pagbasa sa Lumang Tipan at sa Ebanghelyo at ang mensahe ng dalawang pagbasa na mga ito ay may pagkakahanay?
Pinagaling ni Hesus ang bulag. Sa unang pagkakataon, bakit 'di malinaw ang nakita ng dating bulag at sinabi niya na parang mga punong naglalakad ang mga tao? Kinailangan pang patungan ng kamay ulit ang tao bago makakita ng mabuti.
May ipinaparating na mensahe si Hesus sa mga disipulo niya. Sa Unang Tipan, ipinahayag ng Diyos ang kanyang plano at nagbigay siya ng mga palatandaan ng mga bagay na mangyayari kapag dumating ang ipinangakong Mesiyas. Nang dumating si Hesus, bingyan niya ng linaw ang mga nangyari sa Lumang Tipan at gumawa ng mga bagay na mas higit pa sa Lumang Tipan. Ang sabi nga ni San Agustin, ang Bagong Tipan ay nakatago sa Lumang Tipan, at ang Lumang Tipan ay nabubunyag sa Bagong Tipan.
