Thank you blessed mother. Reflection for marriages Mark 7:8,14-15, 21-23

GOSPEL

“You disregard God’s commandment but cling to human tradition”
From the Gospel according to Mark 7:1-8, 14-15, 21-23

When the Pharisees with some scribes who had come from Jerusalemgathered around Jesus,they observed that some of his disciples ate their mealswith unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.—For the Pharisees and, in fact, all Jews,do not eat without carefully washing their hands,keeping the tradition of the elders.And on coming from the marketplacethey do not eat without purifying themselves.And there are many other things that they have traditionally observed,the purification of cups and jugs and kettles and beds. —So the Pharisees and scribes questioned him,”Why do your disciples not follow the tradition of the eldersbut instead eat a meal with unclean hands?”He responded,”Well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, as it is written:This people honors me with their lips,but their hearts are far from me;in vain do they worship me,teaching as doctrines human precepts.You disregard God’s commandment but cling to human tradition.”
He summoned the crowd again and said to them,”Hear me, all of you, and understand.Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person;but the things that come out from within are what defile.
“From within people, from their hearts,come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder,adultery, greed, malice, deceit,licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly.All these evils come from within and they defile.”

The Gospel of the Lord.

Thank you, Blessed Mother.

Today is the anniversary of Conjugal Love Proyect. On a day like today, 22 years ago, Our Lady of Fatima confirmed this mission for marriage and family with a sign. Today’s readings couldn’t have a clearer message for us: to be faithful to what has been entrusted to us. To be faithful to the teachings of the Church, and above all, to be faithful to the Gospel without adding anything of our own. If we do this, this Word is capable of saving our lives, and we will become a first fruit for many who still follow human criteria.

Applied to Married Life:

Husband : If there is something that stands out about Conjugal Love Proyect,  it is that it is super faithful to the truth.
Wife : And another thing that stands out is that it gives life to thousands of spouses and their families.
Husband: Yes, starting with ours.
Wife: And more and more each day.
Husband: Truly, this has to be from the Virgin. There is no other explanation.
Wife: Mary is guiding this. Blessed be.

Mother,

Thank you for this gift of Conjugal Love Proyect.  How many marriages and families have been saved by your generous hand. Thank you, Mother, thank you, thank you… Blessed are you.
