Gospel
text (Mark 6,53-56):
Having crossed the lake, Jesus and his disciples came ashore at Gennesaret
where they tied up the boat. As soon as they landed, people recognized Jesus
and ran to spread the news throughout the countryside. Wherever He was they
brought to him the sick lying on their mats. And wherever He went, to villages,
towns or farms, they laid the sick in the marketplace and begged him to let
them touch just the fringe of his cloak. And all who touched him were cured.
Our God is all love and truth, who asks from us humility and forgiveness. Our God is the only living God. He has the word of eternal life. Observing the process of the current protests in the Middle East and many other places in the world by the so called followers of Islam, presumably outraged because they do not like what is being presented in a film about their prophet; it is interesting to distinguish that factual truth, about what is missing in the whole staging of these protests and it is precisely, truth, love, humility and forgiveness and it is not precisely from the ignorant mobs perpetrating the assaults under the direction of their evil leaders, but from the ones supposedly protecting the basic and fundamental freedoms we all in the western civilization which is founded in Christianity, have for granted.
