WHAT DID SHE GAIN ?

What do we gain by thinking and desiring evil?
Nothing.

For having danced well among the guests on the anniversary of Herod’s birth, Herodias’ daughter pleased Herod, so that he promised with an oath to give her what she asked:
« Whatever you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom… »(Mark 6:23)

Prompted by her mother, instead of asking for half the kingdom, promotion or immunity, she said:
« Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist. »(Matthew 14:8)

John the Baptist was beheaded in the prison, his head brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother.
But what good was this head of John the Baptist to her?
Nothing.

Indeed, the mother of this girl had kept a grudge against Jean Baptiste who had, in the past, opposed her being married to his brother.
And here is the result of her hatred!

Let’s avoid hate, it makes us want things that are not only bad, but also fool.

PRAYER:
Our Father who art in heaven, help us to avoid hatred.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
