October 24, 2021—Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time
As Jesus was leaving Jericho with
his disciples and a sizable crowd,
Bartimaeus, a blind man, the son
of Timaeus, sat by the roadside
begging. On hearing that it was
Jesus of Nazareth, he began to
cry out and say, "Jesus, son of
David, have pity on me." And
many rebuked him, telling him to
be silent. But he kept calling out
all the more, "Son of David, have
pity on me." Jesus stopped and
said, "Call him." So they called
the blind man, saying to him,
"Take courage; get up, Jesus is
calling you." He threw aside his
cloak, sprang up, and came to
Jesus. Jesus said to him in reply,
"What do you want me to do for
you?" The blind man replied to
him, "Master, I want to see." Jesus
told him, "Go your way; your
faith has saved you." Immediately
he received his sight and
followed him on the way.

Gospel Meditation
When we see God with true sincerity of heart and God passes us along our way, it is only then that we will be able to cry out,
“Jesus, son of David, have pity on me!” We have to truly want to be healed by, and in union with, God in order for us to reach out
to him. If God is only an abstract idea, theory, or someone found in the pages of a book, there is no motivation for a relationship
and no desire to seek him. God needs to be real in order for faith to be real. It’s all about the journey.
St. Augustine reminds us that “to fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek Him the greatest adventure; to find Him the
greatest human achievement.” We strive after many things and mercy is not always one of them. We think that we can find
fulfillment and healing in other things only to discover that we are still short and empty. From the moment human beings were
created, God has been calling us and seeking us. He has been walking right beside the human story from the minute He first
breathed life into the first human soul. Are we able to recognize God as He walks with us? At some point we have to realize that
there is only one way to satisfy the deepest longings of the human heart and that is in relationship with our Creator. We are called
to this. However, we make the huge error of thinking that what we are hearing is coming from somewhere else. We become
confused. Every human being would certainly profit with wisdom if they realized Who calls them and to Whom they belong.
Then and only then will we realize that it is only our Divine Master who can give us true vision and heal us. Once we recognize and
reach out for the merciful presence of our loving Maker, we will be able to see with our soul, understanding the true nature and
depth of all things. God’s mercy is always available. It doesn’t matter how far we have strayed or how blind we become, God
patiently waits to console us, guide us and heal us. All we need to do is desire Him. Once we reach out, we also realize that there is
no greater love to be found than God’s, no human adventure that comes even close to the thrill of a spiritual search, and no human
achievement even remotely as satisfying as union with Him. This is where we belong. This is salvation.
