JESUS, OUR HEALER...

By HIS STRIPES, HIS MOST SWEET AND PRECIOUS WOUNDS, you and I were HEALED!

HIS SHATTERED AND BROKEN BODY... 

For the WHOLENESS of OUR LIVES!

This is JESUS! 

HE who has OFFERED HIMSELF so that you and I may live our lives in ALL ITS FULLNESS 
AND SPLENDOR!


This is what we RECEIVE in the SACRAMENTS OF RECONCILIATION AND HEALING!

From leprous sinners...

TO NEW LIVES OF HOLINESS...

From almost losing everything, like that Father, a Ruler from Capernaum...

TO GAINING THE FULLNESS OF EVERYTHING: JESUS CHRIST OUR KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS!

What more can we ask for?


ERRATUM: I would like to ask for an apology for placing this SCRUTATIO on the 20th Sunday of Ordinary Time instead of the 21st.
