Mark 12:13-17
Some Pharisees and Herodians were sent to Jesus to ensnare him in his speech. They came and said to him, "Teacher, we know that you are a truthful man and that you are not concerned with anyone's opinion. You do not regard a person's status but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar or not? Should we pay or should we not pay?" Knowing their hypocrisy he said to them, "Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius to look at." They brought one to him and he said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They replied to him, "Caesar's." So Jesus said to them, "Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God." They were utterly amazed at him.
Dawg's thought:
Today's prayer intention is for single parents, that God grant them the grace to raise their children with dignity.
One of the gifts of The Holy Spirit is wisdom.
While we are not Christ, we have The Advocate with us, guiding us to truth, and leading our our speech if we are humble enough to allow Him to speak through us. There is an overabundance of lies out there, just look at The Da Vinci Code book sales. There are a lot of people who are searching for The Truth and who are too prideful to listen to The Truth.
Do not be scared of the lies, for through The Holy Spirit, you will be led to The Truth. Take care and God Bless.
