Father Anthony reflects on the scripture passage where Jesus raises the widow’s only son, revealing Christ’s deep compassion for human suffering. Fr. Anthony invites us to see how Jesus can also revive our own hearts when we feel weighed down, weary, or spiritually lifeless. Discover how to call on the Lord to “touch your spirit” and bring you new life.

Fr. Anthony Gramlich explores the healing of the paralyzed man in Mark 2, showing how the mercy of Jesus often reaches us through the love and faith of others. When we feel stuck or spiritually paralyzed, it’s okay to lean on our brothers and sisters in Christ—because sometimes, it takes a community to carry us to healing.

Father Anthony encourages us to pray this scripture when we’ve been through a trial of faith, knowing that God is with us and we have reason to be ever hopeful.
