MARBLES AND CANDIES

A BOY AND A GIRL

WERE PLAYING

TOGETHER. THE BOY HAD A COLLECTION

OF MARBLES. THE

GIRL HAD SOME SWEETS WITH HER.



• THE BOY TOLD THE GIRL THAT

HE WILL GIVE HER ALL HIS

MARBLES IN EXCHANGE FOR

HER SWEETS. THE GIRL

AGREED. THE BOY KEPT THE BIGGEST AND THE MOST

BEAUTIFUL MARBLE ASIDE AND

GAVE THE REST TO THE GIRL .

THE GIRL GAVE HIM ALL HER

SWEETS AS SHE HAD PROMISED.



• THAT NIGHT, THE GIRL

SLEPT PEACEFULLY. BUT

THE BOY COULDN’T SLEEP

AS HE KEPT WONDERING IF

THE GIRL HAD HIDDEN

SOME SWEETS FROM HIM

THE WAY HE HAD HIDDEN

HIS BEST MARBLE.

• LINK: WE LEARNED THAT THE SIXTH COMMANDMENT

CALLS US TO BE FAITHFUL IN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER PEOPLE AND WITH GOD. THE MARRIED LIFE IS

ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF HOW FAITHFULNESS

CAN MAKE A RELATIONSHIP GROW IN LOVE AND

CARE. HOWEVER, WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE TIMES

WHEN IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO BE FAITHFUL ESPECIALLY

WHEN WE START TO SELFISHLY THINK OF WHAT IS BEST

FOR US AT THE EXPENSE OF WHAT IS GOOD FOR OTHERS. THIS IS THE MOMENT WHEN THE 9TH

COMMANDMENT CAN HELP US THE MOST.



“YOU SHALL NOT COVET YOUR

NEIGHBOR’S WIFE”MEANING:

• - IT IS RELATED TO THE SIXTH

COMMANDMENT. IT FOCUSES ON THE

INNER SOURCE OF THE ACTUAL SIN THAT

VIOLATES THE SIXTH COMMANDMENT.

• - THE SOURCE IS THE COVETOUSNESS OF

THE HEART OR THE HIDDEN DESIRE OF THE

HEART WHICH LEADS TO THE SELFISH AND

WRONGFUL TAKING OF WHAT RIGHTFULLY

BELONGS TO ONE'S NEIGHBOR, AND IN

THIS CASE, THE NEIGHBOR'S WIFE.



- TO COVET MEANS, THUS, TO DESIRE

WRONGFULLY. IN MATTERS OF SEX, THIS

WRONGFUL DESIRE IS CALLED LUST.



VALUES AND ACTIONS

- WE ARE CALLED TO BE CHASTE, WHICH

MEANS TO BE MODEST AND DECENT IN THE

WAY WE BEHAVE TOWARDS OTHERS.



• - TO BE CHASTE

REQUIRES SELF-CONTROL

OR SELF-DISCIPLINE. WE

MUST PUT ORDER TO OUR

SEXUAL FEELINGS AND

EMOTIONS. PUTTING ORDER MEANS

EXPRESSING OUR SEXUAL

FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS

ACCORDING TO WHAT IS

GOOD, TRUE, AND

DECENT.



• IN WORDS AND DEEDS, WE MUST

RESPECT OUR SEXUALITY AND THAT OF

OTHERS.



EXAMEN

SILENCE…

QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION

• W HEN WERE THE MOMENTS WHEN I WAS MOST ABLE TO BE

SELFLESS IN MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY PARENTS,SIBLINGS, AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS?

• W HEN WERE THE MOMENTS WHEN I WAS LEAST ABLE TO BE

SELFLESS IN MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY PARENTS,

SIBLINGS,

AND OTHER

FAMILY

MEMBERS

?

THANK GOD FOR THE GIFT OF SELFLESSNESS AND THE

CHALLENGE TO THINK FIRST OF OTHER PEOPLE BEFORE

THINKING ABOUT ONE'S SELF .
