Forming Good Stewards
Good stewards are formed by other good stewards!
If you wish, you can make me clean. Mark 1:40-45
The laws of hygiene attributed to Moses in the Book of Leviticus were to prevent the spread of diseases like leprosy which literally condemned a person to a life separated from family, friends and the rest of the community. Illnesses like leprosy and physical deformities were seen as a punishment from God. The leper had faith, or at least hope, that Jesus could cure him of his disease. Cured of leprosy, he could show himself to the priest and make the offering prescribed by Moses. That would allow him to return to his family, friends and community and would be a sign to them that “I am not a sinner.” He must have felt much like we feel when we avail ourselves of the Sacrament of Reconciliation and know that Jesus, through the person of the priest, understands our sorrow for our sin and loves us unconditionally. When was the last time we sought the graces of the Sacrament of Reconciliation? Sadly, for most Catholics, the answer is “Too long!” Do we have the same faith, or at least hope, of the leper who approached Jesus?
