[Grem] A mai vasárnapi szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel a rich young man asks Jesus what he must do to
inherit eternal life. There is something absolutely right about the young
man, something spiritually alive, and that is his deep desire to share in
everlasting life. He knows what he wants, and he knows where to find it.
Jesus responds to his wonderful and spiritually alive question by
enumerating many of the Commandments. The young man takes this in, and
replies, "Teacher, I have kept all these since my childhood." So Jesus
looks at him with love and says, "Go and sell what you have and give to the
poor.…After that come follow me."God is nothing but love, straight through,
and therefore the life of friendship with him, in the richest sense, is a
life of total love, self-forgetting love. Jesus senses that this young man
is ready for the high adventure of the spiritual life: he is asking the
right question and he is properly prepared. But at this point the young man
tragically balks. The spiritual life, at the highest pitch, is about giving
your life away, and this is why the many possessions are a problem.*
