Our Gospel gives us two rather spectacular miracles, both based on FAITH, and show the power of Jesus's presence and compassion...While he is on his way to the bedside of a dead girl, a woman touched the hem of his garment and was cured of a 12 year malady. Just by the touch of a garment, yet a touch based on her faith that that was all she needed to do. She was right...(Mt. 9: 18-21). Then, Jesus simply took the dead girl by the hand and she arose. (Mt. 9: 22-26).
We wonder why we can't have such results when we pray for the cure of an autistic child, vocations to the consecrated life, or whatever might seem like a "worthy" miracle...It's hard to accept our own lack of faith, but that might be just the reason nothing happens...Nothing? Well at least we might benefit from knowing that we need to pray for a deeper faith.
