[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, as is often the case with Jesus’ more difficult parables, we have
to pay careful attention to today’s Gospel story. It’s all about justice,
which is rendering to each what is due—a good and noble thing. When justice
is your primary consideration, you are basically in charge, morally
speaking. But what Jesus is doing today in this striking and annoying story
is to shake us* out of that understanding of our relationship to God.

*The point is this: God owes us precisely nothing. Everything we have,
including our very existence, is a sheer gift. We are in absolutely no
position ever to demand anything of God. To move into this space is to move
out of the stance of faith. And so no matter what God asks, the proper
response is: "I am an unprofitable servant; I have done what I was obliged
to do."*
