Wednesday of Week 4 in Ordinary Time

A prophet is only despised .
In his own country.
And we rarely feel prized if not actually despised.
Even if we proceed humbly.Despised among his own relations.
And in his own house.
Let alone among all the nations.
And we ask what and where is his house.

He could do no miracle there.
Though he cured a few sick people by laying hands on them.
But have we the courage to dare.
Even if others condemn.

……..

A prophet despised
For he’s in his own country
And then so are we

See Mark 6 : 1-6
