St. John Chrysostom sets the tone for us, showing us how to receive riches from our readings for this Sunday, the Sunday of the paralytic. Both John 5:1-15 and Acts 9:32-42 relate stories that are concrete fulfillments of the prophecy in Micah 4:1-7 that God would call those on the margins of society, including the disabled, as part of his “remnant,” to give glory to Him.
