April 3, 2011: Gospel Reflection II

Jesus Heals the Man Born Blind

Reflection/Discussion Questions:
-Jesus rejects the Jewish teaching that the man was born blind because of his own sin or the sin of his parents. Jesus says that brokenness in the world (like the man being born blind) allows for God’s grace to shine through. 

What physical or emotional brokenness are you aware of in your life or the lives of others around you? How can you bring God’s healing love and grace through that brokenness?

-Jesus talks about blindness in this passage not as a physical blindness but a spiritual blindness. 

What are the things that can keep us from seeing God’s presence in the world and in others (pride, security, apathy, envy, contentment, etc.)?
