Day 15 of Lent

While visiting several of my favorite Catholic websites today, I came across an article that dealt with the chief exorcist of Rome, Fr. Gabriel Amorth. From what I read, Fr. Amorth, who recently published a book of his memoirs, wrote about satanic sects residing within the Vatican and how some priests, monsignors and cardinals were involved in these sects.

Of course this news item caught my attention and from what I read has caught the attention of many others. Whether the revelations are true or not, I do hope Fr. Amorth is mistaken about satanic cults existing within the Vatican, this story is a powerful reminder that 1) satan exists, and 2) no one is exempt from his attacks.

We should remember what St. Peter wrote, "Be of sober spirit, be on the alert Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour."

God bless!
