Both the Letter to the Hebrews and the Gospel of Mark reveal the healing power of Christ who removes the barriers that keep us from God. May we then search our hearts for anything that is blocking our relationship with the Lord...for he longs to save us.

Jesus, our great high priest, bridges the gap between Heaven and earth through his divinity and humanity. As the Son of God he has the power to make a sacrifice for the salvation of the world; as the Son of Mary he meets us in our human weakness and struggle. May we turn to our Savior for the strength we need!

During the call of Levi - who leaves his post and follows Jesus - we hear the encouraging words of the Lord, who "did not come to call the righteous but sinners." May we recognize our need for ongoing conversion as we turn away from sin and follow Christ.

In this third part of the reflection on love from the First Letter of John, we see how our love for others reflects the love that flows from the heart of God. When we love one another we are acting on the Lord's commandment and showing the world the face of Christ.

"And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart." Mary inspires us to follow her example as we reflect on all that has happened in the last year and study these insights in the light of our faith in Christ as we embark on the New Year. Holy Mary, Mother of God...pray for us!
