Reflection
Hebrews 2: 14-18, Mark 1:29-39
"Lightening the burdens of others"
When Jesus heard that Peter’s mother-in-law was sick with fever, He immediately went to her, took her by the hand and helped her up. Jesus was surrounded the whole day with sick people and he patiently spent time with each person by relieving them of their pain, worries, etc. He did not reject anyone because each person, no matter how unimportant, was a person worthy of his time and attention.

Reflection
Hebrews 2:5-12, Mark 1:21-28
"A heart like Jesus"
Reaching out in love, Jesus released the man from the unclean spirit so that he would be accepted and loved by others again. Many times, “unclean spirits”, such as our pride, laziness, lust, greed, etc. prevent us from deeply knowing and living our identity as God’s beloved children. These “unclean spirits” want us to live by serving our own desires and seeking our own good. In prayer, Jesus encounters us and comes to free us from these ‘unclean spirits’ so that we can love again.
