Hope, Faith, Belief
A Lenten Minute Reflection for Monday, March 16, 2015
by Dcn Bob Bonomi
In today's Gospel, the encounter between the royal official and Jesus progresses through a series of steps. First, the official has hope because of what he has heard about Jesus; then, in encountering Him, the official believes what Jesus says and has faith that it will occur; and finally, when what Jesus says comes to pass, the official and his whole household come to believe in not only what Jesus says, but in who He is - the Christ. Where are we the weakest in our relationship with Jesus - our hope for a sign, our belief in His words, or our acceptance of who He is?
