Freedom for Christ - Daily Gospel Reflection

Today’s Gospel reading is Matthew 9:1-8. Jesus forgives and heals a paralyzed man. The Pharisees want to know who but God can forgive sins? Jesus is thus using the healing as proof of His divinity. Then the crowds glorify God.

What’s more important, the physical healing Jesus performs or the forgiveness of our sins? Today as we reflect on our freedom, let us recognize we have the freedom to choose to follow Christ.
