[Grem] a mai nagyböjti szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, today’s Gospel gives us the parable of the unforgiving servant,
which reveals what is at the root of our inability to forgive.In the
deepest sense, we don’t belong to ourselves. Everything we have and all
that we are comes from God. We are meant, with all of our gifts, to serve
God’s purposes. Our very existence comes from God, but so does the
forgiveness of our sins. Through no merit of ours, Christ has died for our
sins and offered us the divine mercy. The upshot is this: there is nothing
particularly stable about the self, nothing that it can claim for its own.
All that it has is received as a gift. Well, the incapacity to forgive
comes from one place: a false sense of the substantial self. If my life
belongs to me, then I will cling to resentment, anger, and
self-righteousness when my dignity has been compromised. But when we
realize that our life is not about us—when we put our forgiveness of others
in relation to God’s forgiveness of us—then we find that real forgiveness
is possible. *
