Quickly and Gladly

Note:  Still trying to find the new deadline for posting...Today, I hope, I'm early enough and two slices of daily bread will appear.

As we heard Jesus describe his mission in the synagogue in Nazareth, we now see him offering the mercy of which he spoke to a leper. He responded immediately to the plea, "Lord, if you wish, you can make me clean" (Lk 5: 12 ) and, if we read between the lines, gladly.  Quickly and gladly., cannot that be our response when we are asked a favor, when an e-mail, snail mail or phone solicitation comes our way? And they come often and in droves.  We can't respond to every one, but perhaps ONE donation might make the difference in someone's life. Generously have we received, generously we can give. (must give?)  What do you say?
