Dear Friends:

When Jesus Christ heals a deaf man and gives him the ability to speak, we are invited to look at ourselves. What is important to us is the ability to hear and value the proper conversation among us. How often in our lives do we hear what we want to hear, and to speak our mind without looking at what is really needed?

In our world today there is more wrong understanding and garbled speech than ever before. We all would profit if we put our mind to the example of our Lord and hear what is really essential for us to gain knowledge about; and his speech will teach us thoroughly how words should be used between humans.

Fr. Frank
