January 20, 2024 2nd week OT
OT means ordinary time. Today’s gospel is two verses. The crowd came to the house where Jesus was eating and those inside the house call Jesus crazy (Mk 3:20-21) Often in Jesus’ time, people would conclude after an inexplicable occurrence, he’s crazy of the devil is in him. In this passage, they say Jesus is crazy. Even those close to Jesus sometimes did not understand or believe. Only by his resurrection did they come to believe and even those like Thomas (doubting Thomas) had to see the scars in Jesus’ hands and feet to believe. Here is to my believing in the Word and in Jesus and for His second coming to make things new again! Amen!
