JESUS CAME TO DEFEAT THE DEVIL.

Monday of the Third Week in Ordinary Time Year C Mark 3:22-30 We live in a world where we poison others by criticism. Nowaday, it reach in peak. Call it bashing, negative feedbacks, attacks, personal assasination etc. It is easy for us to judge and criticize people today. Even Jesus was a victim of it. He did an exorcism but was acussed of being possessed by a devil. The gospel is reminding us that whatever you do, good or bad, people will always have something negative to say. Call it prejudice and perhaps a critism and an attact. Jesus is put someone on the hotseat those who cannot recognise goodness and who see only evil in others. We lways have the tendency tearing each other down in order to build ourselves up by putting others down. Friends, remember this: your value does not decrease based on someones inability to to see your worth. Never be distracted by the dog that barks. Its only a bark. Critics are like dogs. Let them bark. You know what, the moon does not care if the dog barks at it. Don’t be distressed by criticisms. Educated people do not go with the level of animals. Challenge: Always recognize the good in others not their stain. Cherish and appreciate someone today. Blessings, Fr. Jhack
