pray so the works of penance we have begun that we may have strength to accomplish with sincerity the bodily observances we undertake to our lord jesus christ your son who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the holy spirit god forever and ever amen from the book of the prophet isaiah thou says the lord god cry out full-throated and unsparingly lift up your voice like a trumpet blast tell my people their wickedness and the house of jacob their sins they seek me day after day and desire to know my ways like a nation that has done what is just and not abandoned the law of their god they ask me to declare what is judah pleased to gain access to god why do we fast and you do not see it afflict ourselves and you take no note of it law on your fast day you carry out your own pursuits and drive all your laborers yes your fast ends in quarreling and fighting striking with wicked glow without today you might fast so as to make your voice heard on high is this the manner of fasting i wish of keeping a day of tenants that a man bowl his head like a reed and lie in sackcloth and ashes do you call this a fast a day acceptable to the lord this rather is the fasting that i wish releasing those bound unjustly untying the thongs of the yoke setting free the oppressed breaking every yoke sharing your bread with the hungry sheltering the oppressed and the homeless clothing the naked when you see them and not turning your back on your own then your light shall break forth like the dawn and your wound shall quickly be healed your vindication shall go before you and the glory of the lord shall be your rear god then you shall call and the lord will answer you shall cry for help and he will say here i am the word of the lord thanks be to god [Music] a heart contrite and humbled oh god you will not spur [Music] oh in your goodness in the greatness of your compassion wipe out my offense truly wash me from my guilt and of my sinclance me a heart controlled [Music] and my sin is before me always against you only have i sinned and done what is evil in your sight our hearts [Music] even [Music] sacrifices should i offer a burnt offering you would not accept it my sacrifice o god is contrite spirit our heart contrites and humbled o god you will not spurn [Music] my [Music] earth [Music] the lord be with you and your spirit a reading from the holy gospel according to matthew glory to you o lord the disciples of john approached jesus and said why do we and the pharisees fast much but your disciples do not fast jesus answered them can the wedding guest mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them the days will come with the bridegroom is taken away from them and then they will fast the gospel of the lord praise the lord jesus christ good morning my dear brothers and sisters good morning also to our brothers and sisters who are with us celebrating in their homes maya online good morning to all of you the disciples of john are really concerned because they faithfully follow the law especially with regard to fasting and so they approached jesus and confronted him why his disciples do not fast are they jealous or are they curious why just them why not us why can they why can't we and jesus simply answered them through a categorical question followed by a concrete and real thing that will surely happen and he said can the wedding guest mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them and they will fast since it is a categorical question which means multi-select provides the option of assigning a maximum number of valid answers according to research if we categorize the answer of jesus in the issue of separation of the church and state in relation to the upcoming election then we can have categorical data for those who says yes and for those who says no when we say the church it is christ as the head and we the christian are the body if you are a christian either you are a bishop a priest a religious lay or simply simple faithful of christ at the same time a citizen of this country and a registered voter my question is this can you endorse your candidate yes or no yes remember as individual as citizens of this country either you are a christian or non-christians either you are a bishop a priest a lay recon a religious or simply a faithful to christ as long as you are a citizens of this country has the right to vote and has the right to endorse your candidate we return to those questions are they jealous or are they curious why just them why not us why can't they why can't we can this individual christian citizen be called a church [Music] another question what is your answer yes or no the answer is no remember this individual christian is a part of the church but not an entirety of church because christ must be present as the head of his church the church do not endorse politicians i repeat the church do not endorse politician the church endorses the one and only no other than his head jesus christ who chose to who chose us sinners to be loved and be saved so my dear voters my dear citizens of our country value your rights to vote prayerfully remember this in the is this is the only opportunity given every three or six years as a democratic country if when this democracy is destroyed then it is a time to fast from boating maybe not only from boating maybe we are fasting really because we have no more food remember the disciples as long as christ is with them they will not pass but when christ will be taken away from them then they will fast so my dear brothers and sisters take this lenten season to fast and offer it to god your candidate because jesus do not vote he only choose fast that you may be holy so that you may vote in holiness of heart that is why my dear brothers and sisters in fasting god wanted us to pursue and vote leaders not able to release those bound and justly a leader capable of untying the tongues of the yoke of our country and of its citizens a leader that will set free the oppressed proficient in breaking every yoke that may arise in our society a leader that knows how to share bread with the hungry a leader knowledgeable in sheltering the oppressed and homeless especially in times of crisis and calamities a leader who knows how to offer clothing to the naked when they see them and not turning their back on their own country on their own citizens and under faith in the lord jesus we also offer our fasting to our own selves that we will be able to achieve those qualities we are looking for our leaders so that when they sit we will be able to assist them so that we will achieve the things we pray for with oneness of mind and heart on the way to god amen let us all stand by fasting we give god space in our lives let us ask the lord to strengthen us in self-denial that they may set our minds and hearts firmly on him and let our response be lord our true joy is in you lord our true

this all of you and eat of it for this is my body which will be given off for you in a similar way when supper was ended he took the chalice and once more giving thanks he gave it to his disciples
