What defiles a person
Examine your insides and seek justice
One day, the famous painter Leonardo da Vinci painted a painting in his study On the last supper of the Lord, and as he was painting the face of Christ, one of his neighbors disturbed him. When he came to him, they started arguing a lot. Leonardo was so upset that his neighbor cursed and drove him out of the house. Then he returned to the painting and wanted to continue, but he couldn’t. Nothing he failed. He finally realized why. He went to the neighbor, begged him, and everything was fine. The neighbor was surprised. He asks what moved him to come, and he apologized. Leonardo called him into his study. There he showed him the face of Christ, on which he worked and proved: “I could not finish it until Christ dwells in mine. Leonardo thanked his neighbor for forgiving him and for helping him to convert his heart.
At one point, the painter’s heart seemed to harden. Even today, Jesus tells us the gospel in a parable about what defiles a person. Back then, as if our hearts were really closed and darkened. “One cannot stain anything that enters it from the outside. But what comes from a man is it he defiles a man ”(Mark 7:15).
Negative things come from the human heart, whether it is bad idea, theft, theft, adultery, greed, malice, immorality, envy, blasphemy, pride, stupidity. Elsewhere, Jesus mentions a language that can do great things, and on the other hand, it can do great things to hurt. “What a small fire and what a great mountain they kindle ‘a tongue, this restless evil, full of deadly poison, none of the men can tame ”(James 3: 5-8). Channel, by which evil things come, whether on the tongue or through other limbs, can do a lot of evil.
From now on, let’s work to ensure that we don’t just hurt ourselves with evil deeds, but lest we offend others with our lives. Let us ask the Lord Jesus to help us in this. May we do it with his help and grace to protect the defilement not only on the body but especially on the soul. We want to be clean a conscience to join the saints in their service to God! Lord Jesus, thank you for shedding your blood on the cross so that we may be cleansing from sins and that we have come to know your forgiveness. Above all, we want to trust your infinite mercy. May the Holy Spirit help us to see every day what comes “from the depths of our hearts.”

Superb blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
