*Friends, today’s Gospel passage celebrates the faith of two blind men. To
have faith is—to use the current jargon—to live outside the box, risking,
venturing, believing the impossible. When we remain in the narrow confines
of our perceptions, our thoughts, or our hopes, we live in a very cramped
way. We become closed off to the possibility that sometimes, the power of
faith is manifested in spectacular and immediately obvious ways. When
someone consciously and confidently opens himself to God, acting as a kind
of conduit, the divine energy can flow. Faith allows someone to live in
detachment from all of the ups and downs of life. In the language of St.
Ignatius of Loyola: "Lord, I don’t care whether I have a long life or a
short life, whether I am rich or poor, whether I am healthy or sick."
Someone that lives in that kind of detachment is free, and because they are
free, they are powerful. They are beyond the threats that arise in the
context of this world. This is the source of dynamis, of real power. *
