Don't honor me with your lips...

'This people honors me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me;
in vain do they worship me,
teaching human precepts as doctrines.'
"Listen to me, all of you, and understand:
there is nothing outside a person that by going in can defile,
but the things that come out are what defile."
-Mark 7

This Gospel, i think is perhaps one that has captivated me the most. It pretty much gives me the reason why i do what i do. Cause quite honestly, i hadn't asked myself that question ina minute. a good one. the whole 60 seconds. Sometimes there are moments of doubt in whether i'm doing what's right. then i Realized i don't really care whether it is right, i care if it feels right. My friend one day while we were out for dinner told me "i don't think people follow their feelings and their soul as much as they should, they only listen to their mind and what they think is right. But honestly, our thoughts aren't really ours, they are easy to influence, they have been influenced, by society and everything around. But what you feel, that's soley yours."
&& i kno that what's keeping me going, going strong, is my faith and Soley without a doubt, My hope.

-Because i kno i shouldn't expect too much from you, and i kno i tell myself i don't expect much from you, but deep inside i can't help but feel a little faith, and hope for more.

Peace.
