Final remarks

Jesus can deal with demons in the lives of those who come to him to ask for his help. But not everybody loves Jesus. And not everybody understands who he is. Someone must go to tell those who do not know him. The man whom Jesus healed went back. He went back because Jesus told him to do so. But he would have preferred to stay with Jesus and with Jesus’ friends.

Pray

Help me, Jesus, to obey your commands, even when I do not want to do it. Amen.
