This week, we are invited to look at suffering through the lens of faith, much like the disciples who came to understand its deeper purpose. While modern views may dismiss suffering as meaningless, the Cross reminds us that it can be a path to resilience, spiritual growth, and hope. We’re reminded of a courageous woman who embraced the challenges of her illness with faith, seeing her suffering as an opportunity for strength. Ultimately, through the triumph of Christ’s Resurrection, we find comfort in knowing that we are never alone in our pain and that eternal life offers hope beyond all suffering.

We must trust in God's healing power. Just as Isaiah called the people of Judah to place their faith in God’s promise of renewal, we too are invited to rely on Him in our own struggles. In the Gospel, Jesus heals a man whose faith allows him to overcome his obstacles, reminding us that our faith can lead to transformation. Let’s open our hearts to God’s grace, trusting that He will renew and restore us.
