Matthew
Chapter 9
1
1 He entered a boat, made the crossing, and came into his own town.
2
And there people brought to him a paralytic lying on a stretcher. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Courage, child, your sins are forgiven."
3
At that, some of the scribes 2 said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming."
4
Jesus knew what they were thinking, and said, "Why do you harbor evil thoughts?
5
Which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'?
6
3 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" --he then said to the paralytic, "Rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home."
7
He rose and went home.
8
4 When the crowds saw this they were struck with awe and glorified God who had given such authority to human beings.

Matthew Chapter 9

This is a beautiful story. The connection between his Confession, his peace, his prayer to know God's will--not for a miracle --is notable. The parallel with Matthew is striking. John Paul II is speaking to us.
