English Homily - 1st Sunday of Elijah

. . .

This homily speaks of two miracles from the Gospel: the healing of a blind man and the conversion of Zacchaeus.

Everyone has asked God for a miracle at some point in their life⁠.

The conversion of Zacchaeus is presented as a miracle, comparable to healing physical blindness⁠.

Zacchaeus, a tax collector, was spiritually lost but found salvation through his encounter with Jesus⁠.

The homily suggests that Zacchaeus' spiritual transformation might be an even greater miracle than physical healing⁠.

It emphasizes that God is continuously working to bring about similar miracles in people's lives today⁠.

The passage encourages readers to reach out to God, just as Zacchaeus did⁠.
