For our second week back in Luke’s gospel narrative, we have a story of Jesus’ healing ministry. This is no accident, for in Luke’s view healing is at the very heart of what God’s mission in our world is all about, defining our own mission as the followers of Jesus. God’s fundamental attitude towards our humanity is summed up in the word “Compassion”. it is an active outreaching love, finding us where we are most vulnberable, turning our lives around, restoring us to wholeness, and giving us a purpose for living.
