The words of Wisdom are adressed to all in authority. Kings and presidents, CEOs and executives, mothers and fathers and to me too for I have the authority to act in the human freedom that was created for me in my being. It is better to be small in this world for the Lord judges those in power more strictly. Or does he? I have the responsibility to use my free will to choose what is from God and reject the devil and all his works and all his pomps. The Sacrifice of the incarnate Son was for us all to be able to acquire the forgiveness in the mercy of the Father. The Holy Spirit is the inspiration and support burning out of the Trinity to be here for all; powerful as well as me.

The lepers outside the Samaritan village obeyed Jesus specific comand. They made their way  towards Jerusalem and became aware of their cure The one who came back to thank and honour the giver of the gift was a Samaritan. Was his gratitude greater because he was an alien? Jesus knows the answer to this for he brings the lack of gratitude on the part of the nine to our attention. The cure of the Samaritan was completed by the faith he showed in his gratitude

We all have to cooperate with the Lord. Some of us are rich and poweful in this world and some are  poor and weak. It seems the leaders of our Church have locked themselves into the trappings of wealth and power. The Catholic Church's  £200,000,000 loss in London yesterday was it as the 18 deaths when the tower at Siloam collapsed? Can it be counted as warning to forget the wealth and material things of God's mission to his Church and to concentrate on the truth? All sins are known to the Lord. What suffering he underwent to save us from them! The Institutional Church has to let out the Church of Love that is somewhere imprisoned within it and then we may all hear the words. "Your faith has saved you ".

Dear Lord you know the confusion that has beset me today and I thank you for the clarity that always comes from silencing myself and opening to you Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Let my will alwys co-operate with yours.
