OUT
OF HIS MIND
Enter
into the stillness of God within.
Reading: “When his realtives heard
of this, they set out to take charge of Jesus, convinced he was out of his
mind.” (Mark 3:20-21)
Reflection. It is a startling little
sentence we find only in Mark, the writer who often gives us graphic “unedited”
details about the daily dispositions of Jesus and those around him. He is so
caught up in his mission, so passionate about what he is doing, that he hardly
has time to eat or rest. There is an energy and a focus here which rivets our own attention to the issues
we face and the people we work with.
Prayer. Lord, may we have the
passion to commit ourselves to the people we live and work with and the issues
we face so that your kingdom may come and be seen in our world. Amen
