For 9 January 2015, Friday after Epiphany, based on
Luke 5:12-16
Once, when he was in one of the cities, there was a man covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he bowed with his face to the ground and begged him, “Lord, if you choose, you can make me clean.†Then Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him, and said, “I do choose. Be made clean.†Immediately the leprosy left him. And he ordered him to tell no one. “Go,†he said, “and show yourself to the priest, and, as Moses commanded, make an offering for your cleansing, for a testimony to them.†But now more than ever the word about Jesus spread abroad; many crowds would gather to hear him and to be cured of their diseases. But he would withdraw to deserted places and pray.
