Micah 2:1-5; Matt.12:14-21
I listened to Prof. Patrick Lumumba on Channels Television years ago. The Kenyan Prof. is very well known for his straightforward statements against corruption at all levels in Africa. He is quoted to have said “if you fight corruption, corruption will fight back.” Friends, this is a fact. It’s never easy to tell the truth, or live a life marked by sincerity and honesty. As soon as we try, evil plotters arise; those who cannot bear to hear the truth, those who covet both houses and their owners, those who confiscate land and land owner.
Friends, in the fight against evil, lies and corruption, we cannot be tired or discouraged, even when plotters arise; even when corruption fights back dirty. Today, Jesus had to change territory because evil plotters wanted to kill him. But the readings of today remind us that the evil man will perish. His day is at an end. If we belong to this evil group, we must change camp before it’s too late. Beware, evil has no future. May the Holy Spirit of God make us agents of justice and fairness. And through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, may we become better human beings and better Christians, Amen.
Good morning dear, God bless your weekend. Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us!

Amen.
This just reminds me of the conspiracy at my place of work.
But in all, it is well.
