Touching Christ with Living Faith — On Healing & Spiritual Renewal

About this sermon

Glory to Jesus Christ! In today’s homily, we explore two profound Gospel stories from St. Luke — the healing of the woman suffering for twelve years and the raising of Jairus’ daughter. These miracles reveal the limitless power of Christ and the transforming grace He offers when we approach Him with living faith. In a world overwhelmed by constant noise, news, and distractions, our attention is often pulled from one story to another. Yet, unlike the stories we see in media, the Gospel has the power to change our lives, reshape our hearts, and renew our souls. This homily reflects on: ✨ The woman who touched Christ’s cloak with faith ✨ The raising of a young girl from death ✨ The danger of spiritual indifference ✨ The need for daily encounters with Christ ✨ The healing power of prayer, fasting, and perseverance ✨ How grace works in God’s timing, not ours ✨ The purity of the baptismal robe and the lifelong struggle against sin ✨ Restoring zeal and spiritual clarity in a distracted age These Gospel stories are not just ancient events — they are invitations for us today. Every moment, we can reach out and “touch Christ” through prayer, Scripture, confession, the Divine Liturgy, and daily faithfulness. And when we do, God acts — sometimes immediately, sometimes slowly — but always miraculously. 00:00 – Opening: Glory to Jesus Christ 00:20 – The noise of modern media and limited attention 00:53 – Why Gospel stories must not be treated like news stories 01:45 – The woman suffering for years and her act of faith 02:25 – Many touched Christ, but only one touched Him with faith 03:00 – The miracle of healing through living faith 03:42 – The raising of Jairus’ daughter 04:30 – Why we must remember these stories daily 05:02 – The priest’s testimony of burnout and renewal 06:20 – Entering Great Lent with desire for transformation 07:12 – The miracle of renewed zeal on the third day 08:20 – God works miracles in His timing 08:39 – Spiritual sickness and the need for self-examination 09:03 – The baptismal robe: purity, sin, and confession 10:20 – Purifying the soul to enter paradise 10:49 – Why we become spiritually indifferent 11:27 – Touching Christ through Scripture, prayer, and Liturgy 12:03 – God performs miracles daily for those who approach Him 12:15 – Final exhortation & conclusion: Expect great things for your soul For more please visit https://lifegivingspringspodcast.podbean.com/ & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest. 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
