Today we celebrate the 4th Sunday in Ordinary Time.
Jesus drives out the unclean spirit in the man in the synagogue
in today’s Gospel. He thus reveals His authority as being fully
divine and capable of subjecting evil spirits to His power.
Similarly, the psalm reminds us that it is important for us to
heed the powerful voice of the Lord and not to harden our
hearts. When we feel moved by the Holy Spirit to proclaim the
Good News to another person or to do a kind act of charity,
follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Seize the
opportunities that you have each day to give witness to your
faith in the Son of God.
Use His Name to take authority in trying situations!
