Description

A woman suffering from a  hemorrhage fights through a crowd to touch Jesus with faith.  This Gospel story teaches a great deal about our own relationship with Jesus.  Her miracle has three key ingredients: need, faith, and contact with Christ.  Our own encounters with Christ will be more impactful and fruitful the more we need him, trust him, and have direct contact with him.  Like this woman, we are all spiritually bleeding and wounded.  By contact with Christ--in communion, confession and prayer--we can learn what these wounds are and experience his healing power.  https://comeawaybyyourselves.com

"Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while." These words of Jesus Christ are an invitation to personal and intimate prayer. The meditations offered in this podcast are intended to help the listener enter into his own prayerful relationship with God. By reflecting on scenes from the Gospel, on other passages from Scripture, and on the insights of saints and spiritual writers, we can strengthen our faith in Jesus and our love for God. In the Gospel of John, Jesus says, "I have called you my friends." By regular meditation and dialogue with Our Lord in prayer, our life can be transformed into an ever deepening and loving friendship with God.
