In your loving kindness, O good and gracious God, you sent your Son to be our shepherd and guide. Father Hector continues Christ’s ministry of working in the vineyard by sustaining and guiding your holy people. Bless Father Hector.

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. - Mk 10:51-52
"And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent.
But he kept calling out all the more." The blind
Bartimaeus was a courageous fellow. Not only was
he bold enough to call out to Jesus who was passing
by, but he also had the guts to keep on calling, even
when people were telling him to be quiet. Clearly,
this man knew that he needed Jesus--and he wasn't
about to let popular opinion convince him otherwise.
What were those people thinking who tried to silence
the poor beggar? Perhaps they thought that Jesus
was too busy for a stop along the way. Maybe they
bought into the prevalent idea that Bartimaeus'
blindness was a punishment for sin and that he was
therefore a lost cause. Or it could be that they were
just annoyed by his persistence. Whatever the case,
these folks tried to pressure Bartimaeus into giving
up. But he didn't. And the reward for his
steadfastness was priceless: "Immediately he
received his sight."
Immediately, that is, after he encountered Christ.
But let's not forget that he had to invest all that time
and energy earlier in order to arrive at that precious
encounter. And we may have to do the same. Our
persistence in prayer is often a necessary first step to
the gift of God's intervention in our lives. We, like
Bartimaeus, may have to call out time and time
again, making our requests known to Jesus even
when it may seem he isn't looking our way. We too
may need to be faithful in the face of doubters and
detractors who tell us that our prayers are pointless,
that God doesn't really
care, or that we
deserve to be stuck in
our own misery. Let us
seek to be like this man
who heard Jesus say,
"Your faith has saved
you."
