The herodes of today

Greetings community of Steemchurch, Happy Sunday

He sent them to Bethlehem and told him: "They are going to inform me exactly about the child." As soon as they find him, they warn me, so that I too will go to worship him.
Matthew 2: 8

The "Herod" style people exist everywhere. Envious people, people who want to know about their lives, in the same way as a leech from the blood of other animals.

is born as the prophets had already predicted. There were those who wanted to adore him, sincere and hard-working people. They are those who travel the path of spiritual search and do not measure their efforts until they have an encounter with Jesus, some even knowing Christ, called "finding oneself"

However, there are always the "herodes of the day". They want to know the reason for their happiness, to then try to frustrate it. They want to know why so much joy, for if it is possible to reap it. Arrogant beings who believe that nobody can be happy. They want to know everything so that everything can control.

Just to get close to people like that, it gives us chills. It seems that I can see them, sassy face, ready to say that we will not get. Preparadísimos to nail the sword of fear in our chest.

But the end of the story was another. Jesus came, said everything that humanity needed to hear, and taught everything we should have learned. Not even death swallowed him. All his blood is burned, but on the third day he gave life to all those who repented. His face escaped, he forgave, they mocked him, but he even on the cross spoke of a kingdom in which envious people do not enter, leeches do not exist, a kingdom in which Herod is not king.

Sister Alba, in life you have to learn to live with others, respecting the rights of everyone.
