Today is a day of unexpected blessings and miracles, signs of how God is active and alive and present in our world and in our lives. Fragile relationships are restored. Hope is experienced in profound ways. Ten lepers implore God’s mercy and are made clean. But the outsider—the foreigner—is the only one who returns to give thanks. Today many of us encounter other hardships of all sorts, and our reading in 2 Timothy makes the stark point that we all suffer. But our God joins us in our sufferings and in our hardships, making us whole through our spiritual cleansing of baptism and filled with God’s Spirit.
