And this is eternal life, that they may know You, 
the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
(John 17:3)

Dear brothers and sisters, in His Gospel sermons our Lord Jesus Christ was constantly calling all humankind to salvation and to eternal life. This great blessedness begins already here in our earthly lives, through the knowledge of the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom [He has] sent, the Savior of the world.
 

Sunday of the Blind Man

 The sixth Sunday after Easter is designated as the Sunday of the blind man, because the Gospel story assigned to us this day is about the healing of such a man by Jesus Christ. Every Sunday we receive a lesson, which tells us of His love for us the human race. Today, we are reminded that His merciful love was expressed to a man who was blind from his birth. Jesus was passing by when His disciples asked Him about the cause of blindness of the man. For the disciples at the time only one explanation for such an unfortunate illness was considered possible. Either the man’s own sins or the sins of his parents could be the cause of it. However, Jesus reveals to them and for us all, that the man was blind so that the works of God would be manifested in him. This revelation pours light on some of our human unexpected and unexplained illnesses and assures us of the fact that we have to accept everything we receive including illnesses, as it is an indicator of God’s visit to us.
