Tuesday of Week 1 of Ordinary Time

Here is a teaching that is new.
And with authority.
And yet we increasingly are not the many but the few.
Filled with temerity.What is the Greek for authority.
It is exousia or power.
But he does not exude superiority.
His is as delicate as a flower.

The unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions.
And with a loud cry went out of him.
Thus he releases all tensions.
Nothing will deter him.

If we have faith to seek.
We must surely speak.

…….

It’s a new teaching
It’s filled with authority
And a new power

See Mark 1: 21-28
