Fr. Joe Newman, OSFS, on Blessed Inconveniences

". . . Recently, we practiced a version of Lectio Divina with the Healing of the Paralytic (Luke 5:18-25) where the paralytic reaches Jesus through the roof of a house. Jesus forgives his sins and heals him.  

"During our meditation, I invited the students to place themselves in the scene and imagine everything through the experience of one of the characters in the story.  After a period of silence, I asked them who they had chosen and what they experienced. . . ."

In a recent commentary, Father Joe Newman, OSFS, reflected on how the actions of God can appear inconvenient to some people.
