                    [Summary] => It is now the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time and today’s gospel reading comes from Mark 9:38-43,45,47-48. In this gospel our Lord Jesus teaches his disciples certain basic characteristics that we must possess so that when we are truly blessed to enter eternal life in heaven, we can do so without regrets.

This might seem to be too religious or spiritual a topic to be taken up in the secular press. But I however believe that we should dismantle that mistaken attitude, because prayer and fasting, especially nowadays when our spiritual and moral conditions have worsened, have actually become most urgently relevant.

I would say that when temptations come, the first thing we have to do is to immediately go to God, to run to him, to stick to him as closely as possible. That's simply because God is our rock and fortress, the ultimate source of strength. Missing this reaction, we open ourselves to a long, tortuous episode that can end badly.
