In today’s gospel reading we learn of Jesus’ ministry in the Galilee and that he was praised by everyone. We go on to learn that he read from the prophet Isaiah at a synagogue where he announces God’s mission to his hearers – a mission of good news to the poor, release for captives, recovery of sight to the blind, liberty to the oppressed, and one where God’s favour is proclaimed.
- Lord, loose me from anything that binds me in mind, body or spirit, so that I might share in the glorious freedom you offer to all who listen to your voice.
