Clean or Unclean

“You are no more intelligent than the others,” Jesus said to them. “Don't you understand? Nothing that goes into a person from the outside can really make him unclean.” And he went on to say, “It is what comes out of a person that makes him unclean.”
Mark 7:18‭, ‬20 GNBDK

Reflection:
There is a popular adage 'What will people say', which is responsible for a majority of our behavioural pattern. Perhaps that is why as a society we are more focused with what we do on the outside rather than within. But with God it is not like that, for he knows the very thought and intention of our smallest action. For even a noble action can be with selfish intention.

Prayer:
I pray that God our Father, gives the grace to look within your heart, may this introspection lead you to submit to Jesus his son, and be filled with his love. And may his Holy Spirit help you to bear much fruit. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
