The gospel presents a demoniac who lived in the tomb and could not be shackled. St. Paul speaks of another possession. This is the person who is ruled entirely by his own physical desires and ideas, who only lives sensual lives, “men steeped in all sorts of depravity, rottenness, greed and malice, and addicted to envy, murder, wrangling, treachery and spite, without love, pity and honor” (Ro. 1: 29-30).
Christ himself tells us that this is the situation within our hear t “evil intentions emerge: fornication, theft, murder, adultery, avarice, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, pride, folly. This is what makes man unclean” (Mk 7: 21-23). This is our pitiable situation that is why out of immense love of God for us, He sent His only Son, Christ to save us and give us the new possibility to transform our lives. We can be clothed with the Holy Spirit and our senses directed towards God and our neighbor.

Finally, we pray for one another, for those who have asked our prayers and for those who need our prayers the most.
Have a good day!
