​DAY TWENTY – Thursday, March 16, 2023
 
Mark 7:24-30
 
Jesus’ followers saw a woman, a Greek, a Gentile and likely a pagan-worshipper, from a community known to be strongly anti-Jewish. A real nuisance to Jesus just when he needed some down time.
 
Jesus saw a person with a strong faith, compassionate, caring and persistent with a thoughtful answer to his question. He reached out to her with love, compassion and healing.
 
When we view those around us through Jesus’ eyes, we would see them very differently and would act with greater love and compassion. Just as night vision glasses help us see in the dark, so “Jesus Vision” glasses would help us to see the real world.  To interpret the first line of an ancient Irish hymn somewhat differently, we should ask: “Be Thou my vision” (Voices United #642)
