Prayer for the Sick

Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the sick, we turn to you in this time of illness. O dearest comforter of the troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with your gentle love, and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in your hands. We place our sick under your care and humbly ask that you restore your servant to health again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge your will and know that whatever you do, you do for the love of us. Amen.

Prayer of the Day Tuesday 29 March 2022 || Gospel

John 5:1-3, 5-16

¹ After this there was a Jewish festival, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

² Now in Jerusalem next to the Sheep Pool there is a pool called Bethesda in Hebrew, which has five porticos;

³ and under these were crowds of sick people, blind, lame, paralysed.

⁵ One man there had an illness which had lasted thirty-eight years,

⁶ and when Jesus saw him lying there and knew he had been in that condition for a long time, he said, ‘Do you want to be well again?’

⁷ ‘Sir,’ replied the sick man, ‘I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is disturbed; and while I am still on the way, someone else gets down there before me.’

⁸ Jesus said, ‘Get up, pick up your sleeping-mat and walk around.’

⁹ The man was cured at once, and he picked up his mat and started to walk around. Now that day happened to be the Sabbath,

¹⁰ so the Jews said to the man who had been cured, ‘It is the Sabbath; you are not allowed to carry your sleeping-mat.’

¹¹ He replied, ‘But the man who cured me told me, “Pick up your sleeping-mat and walk around.” ‘

¹² They asked, ‘Who is the man who said to you, “Pick up your sleeping-mat and walk around”? ‘

¹³ The man had no idea who it was, since Jesus had disappeared, as the place was crowded.

¹⁴ After a while Jesus met him in the Temple and said, ‘Now you are well again, do not sin any more, or something worse may happen to you.’

¹⁵ The man went back and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had cured him.

¹⁶ It was because he did things like this on the Sabbath that the Jews began to harass Jesus.
