Tuesday of the 4th Week of Ordinary Time (Cycle C) – Homilies of Mons. Munilla

This Tuesday’s Gospel collects two stories The resurrection of Jairo’s daughter and the healing of hemorrhism are two stories that have something in common among them and it is important that we underline it firstly the daughter’s resurrection of Jairo’s daughter who He was the chief of the synagogue who had approached Jesus by saying min my girl is in the last ones, they impose hands on her so that she is cured and lived and how Jesus entertains himself with that hemorrhism who is the second of the miracles end arriving by taking the news that it is no longer worth bothering to bother him Jesus because Jairo’s daughter has died at the time when Jesus tells Jairo, he is not afraid that you have faith attention to this expression, it is not enough that you have faith in the meantime. Meanwhile it happens The miracle of hemorrísa love that woman who had blood flows who had spent all the money she had with doctors who was in absolute indigence poverty and who approaches Jesus behind her thinking for her just by touching the mantle cure when she is discovered Yy is evident what had happened to this woman daughter, your faith has saved you and here is the connection between both episodes to Jair Jesus is so much stressing the importance of faith to welcome the salvation of God, the Catholic Church teaches that faith has two dimensions the theological virtue of faith has two dimensions one is personal adhesion to God to entrust us to Him and another is the Dimension of receiving the revealed truth I believe in the truth revealed in the truths revealed and that the Church teaches me obviously in this case in this evangelical passage we are referring to that first dimension of the faith that it is a dimension we say more subjective God Jairo trusts Jesus, the hemorrhism man who thought for himself, just touching the mantle, I will heal my It is good I am in your hands this dimension of us say subjective of faith of faith confidence abandonment personal adhesion is key for us to be followers of Jesus Christ Saint Paul would say I know who I have relied and I trust Him San Carlos de Foucauld Ira Father I put in Your hands make me what you want is whatever I know that everything God wants will be will be for me well is faith as an act of trust and abandonment in God as I say is one of the two dimensions of the Faith but obviously it is the one that appears today and in which we are also called today to underline especially the blessing of Almighty Father Father and Holy Spirit descends on you
