Disguise
Wednesday, 16 December 2009
(Homily delivered on the first Simbang Gabi of 2009) 
 
The story of Christmas is about God who came into the world in disguise. The God who is eternal chose to be born in time, born to lowly and unassuming parents, born in a manger, surrounded by animals, born in poverty! I want to reflect on the word disguise.

Who Touched Me?
Monday, 29 June 2009

(Homily for Sunday, 28 February 2009)

In today's Gospel, when the woman afflicted with haemorrhage saw Jesus, she told herself, "If only I could touch His clothing, I shall be well." That is a beautiful prayer we can make our own. Her words can be translated as "Lord, I wish I could touch You by my life. I wish I could move You by the way I live my life. Lord, I want to please You in my life. Even though I have my failings and blunders, You know that I love You. Make my life pleasing to You." God cannot be outdone in generosity. He saw the desire of her heart and so healed her of her malady. Her gesture moved His heart and so he asked, "Who touched My clothing?", which can be translated as "Who touched Me?"
