15Mar26 (26aL4) In the healing of the man born blind, Jesus works through something physical and unexpected—spit, clay, and washing—to bring about a deeper spiritual healing. This points us to the way God continues to act through outward signs, especially the sacraments, to give inward grace. We are reminded that Christ still touches us through ordinary means that are anything but ordinary: Baptism, Confession, the Eucharist, and the whole sacramental life of the Church are His chosen ways to heal, restore, and glorify God in us.
