Thursday of week 2 in Ordinary Time
Gospel – Mark 3:7-12
“And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, would fall down before him and shout, ‘You are the Son of God!’ But he warned them strongly not to make him known”. Jesus warns strongly not to speak about him. Because He did not want a testimony from the unclean spirits. The testimony for Jesus is His love. Not His miracle. Jesus wants that His love is His testimony. This reveals an important element of our witness of Jesus. Our witness or our testimony must be our personal relationship with Jesus. It must not be a miracle or something we received from Him. Our witness must be our relationship with Jesus. Our witness must be the statement of His love we received in our life. Our witness must be more than the revelation of His identity. It must the revelation of our relationship with Him. Let’s reflect: Jesus wants that our testimony of Him be the testimony our relationship with Him.
