Evening: Psalms 4, 7; Luke 8:26-39
This is the first day of our retreat, at Mount Tabor retreat house in Icoaraçi, near Belém. Marcelo Barros, a liberation theologian well known in Brazil, will lead us. It is fitting that the Gospel today is about the man possessed by many demons – called “Legion”. I think he is like the man in Stephen Leacock’s poem “who leapt on his horse and rode madly off in all directions.” Jesus liberated the man possessed. Question: Are there competing values and desires that tear you apart? What would free you?
