When there is the "Reserve" (consecrated hosts) present in the tabernacle,
it is a light that stays on the front, called the sanctuary lamp ...

Making the grace to be and to bless
You will be taken in the hymn of universe

Here's good news for today ...
(Mark 10: 1-12) - Jesus arrives in Judea and Transjordan. Again, the crowd gathers around him, and again, he instructed them as usual. Some Pharisees approached him and put to the test, they asked: "Is it permissible to a husband to divorce his wife? " Jesus said:" What did Moses command you? " They replied," Moses permitted divorce his wife on condition of establishing an act of repudiation. " Jesus replied:" Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this law. But at the beginning of creation God made them male and female. Because of this, a man leave his father and mother and cleaves to his wife and the two shall become one flesh. Thus, they are no longer two, but they are one. So, what God has joined together let no man put not separate! " Back at home, the disciples questioned him again on this issue. he answered: "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. If a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery. "

To help our thinking ...
sensitive issue ...
This is not for us to judge the lives of others ...
This is not Jesus will condemn ...
Every Jew knew the law, it is a trap that the Pharisees him behind.
importantly, place ourselves in the context of 2000 years ago, the Jews ... and with the Pharisees ...
For Jews, only Jewish men could divorce their wives.
Jesus knows that the Mosaic law is discriminatory.
What did Jesus do? Jesus recalls God's plan.
Man and woman need each other.
In marriage, we give ourselves one to another.
recognizes Jesus the equality of men and women.
The gospel invites us to never judge ...
We, we have to be forgiving and be welcoming to people ...
For the rest ... the grace and mercy of God ... And God is Love.
I think we have to be "Love" also ...
