FOURTEENTH SUNDAY    

Content with my weaknesses (Second Reading) 

St Paul’s words are surprising.  We do not easily reconcile ourselves to hardships and insults and weakness. But the point is that only God can save us from our mortality and our failure. If we are too sure of ourselves we cannot recognise the power of Jesus (Gospel) and open ourselves to his healing. 

Christians feel and experience pain as do all other people; yet their faith helps them to grasp more deeply the mystery of suffering and to bear their pain with greater courage.  From Christ’s words they know that sickness has meaning and value for their own salvation and for the salvation of the world (Pastoral Care of the Sick, 1).
