 The wickedness of Jezebel is in response to a sulking husband and is a total misuse of human freedom. Everything that is wrong with our world is the result of the misuse of this freedom. There is  a  multitude of examples of this today. The Ukraine war is  not an inevitable event that could not have been prevented. Russian troops crossed the border because Putin ordered this to happen. Thousands have died, millions made homeless because  in his human freedom one man decided to go for the glory promised by Satan.

This presents us with a huge problem in our human life. I don't think that any one in history has been able to "turn the other cheek"as we are told to  by Jesus. The concept of the "just war" dominated the leaders of Christendom for centuries. We feel that we had to withstand  the evil that was Hitler and his party. Our bombers had to kill thousands and destroy cities because ?............

Millions of wrong decisions are made every second of every day and as time goes by the evil of these choices accumulates capital to the extent that we can understand the "need" for us to take over the wealth of weaker nations.

Jesus does not give us any excuses. We are free and have been so since the creation of Adam but there are boundaries. Only Father, Son and Holy Spirit are totally free because God is love and wishes no harm to any of his creation.

Dear Lord let my will be totally synchronised with yours. Let me accept all that happens today in the spirit of "turn the other cheek",  that I am responsible for my own choices, that there is a way to live our lives and that way and gate are you. May we and the Holy Souls be constantly in the prayers offered by Our Lady and all the saints.
