[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel, we hear of a landowner who goes out to hire
workers for his field, hiring some the first thing in the morning and then
others at different times during the day. Then he pays each the same wage.
Why should those who have worked only an hour be paid the same as those who
have slaved in the hot sun all day? Is the landowner really being unfair?
Perhaps he saw something that the first workers didn’t see. Perhaps he saw,
in his compassion, that their day spent waiting for work to feed their
families was a terrible one, marked by anxiety and a sense of failure. Or
perhaps he knew that they were poorer, more desperate, less gifted. Maybe
he knew they needed a bit more encouragement. Here’s a second perspective
on this mysterious story. We sinners are very susceptible to a
reward-centered understanding of our relationship to God. Tit for tat; I do
this, then you better do that. But this is very juvenile. *

*Krisztus lelke, szentelj meg engem! Krisztus teste, üdvözíts engem!
Krisztus vére, ihless meg engem! Krisztus oldalából kifolyó víz, moss
tisztára engem! Krisztus kínszenvedése, erősíts meg engem! Ó, jóságos
Jézus, hallgass meg engem! Szent sebeidbe rejts el engem! Ne engedd, hogy
elszakadjak tőled! A gonosz ellenségtől oltalmazz engem! Halálom óráján
hívj magadhoz engem! Add, hogy eljussak hozzád, és szentjeiddel dicsérjelek
téged, mindörökkön-örökké. Ámen.  *
