Clean?�What do you think of when you think of the
word “clean?” Like most of us, we want our house,
cars, food, and even our clothes clean. Yet, the
readings of today, is talking about something more
cleaner than “spic and span,” per se.
The First Reading from the Book of Leviticus 13, and
the holy Gospel according to Mark, the leper asked
Jesus to make him clean. So, it is the physical
autonomous of the body.
Leper is considered to be “unclean.” During the time
of Jesus, they are outcast and cast away members of
society, because there was no cure. Jesus moved with
pity to the leper when he asked and cured him. First,
Jesus’ was moved with pity, stretched out His hand,
touched him, and said, “I do will it. Be made clean.”
Yes, we are in need to be “healed” and “cleaned”
from this illness called leprosy. What do we need to
be cleaned from? What do we need to be healed
from?
St. Paul gave us answers. He didn’t want to be two-
faced to the Corinthian community when he gave
advises. Paul advised his community to first, “Do
everything for the glory of God.” Secondly, he said,
“avoid giving offense” to everyone, and thirdly, “be
imitators of me.” It seems that these three principles
guided the apostle for his whole mission in Christ.
Therefore, in order for us to be “cleaned” in mind,
heart, and soul from any deficiency from God: keep
and live the commandment of God, and let us think

everything for the glory of God.
Also, Lenten season is approaching. Our LENTEN
journey begins this coming Wednesday, February 18th,
2015, we will be marked with ashes on Ash Wednesday.
This is our constant reminder of who we are and our
destiny. “We are dust and dust shall we return with a
clean soul back to God in His majesty and splendor.”
The leper asked Jesus, “’If you wish, you can make me
clean.” Jesus felt with compassion and love said, ‘“I do
will it. Be made clean.”’ We really need to be clean as
well. Amen.
ASH WEDNESDAY
Mass on Ash Wednesday, February 18th, 2015: 9:00am
& 7:00pm. I wish you a prayerful intimate relationship
with Jesus on your Lenten journey. Happy Lent Journey
(HLJ). God bless!
