*Friends, today’s Gospel includes the parable of a fig tree that bears no
fruit.This is a standard trope in the theological literature of Israel:*
the tree that bears no fruit is evocative of the moral person who bears no
spiritual fruit.
*Every single person has a mission: to be a conduit of the divine grace
into the world. Planted in God—think of Jesus’ image of the vine and the
branches—they are meant to bring forth the fruits of love, peace,
compassion, justice, nonviolence. And notice that this should be
effortless. The closer God gets, the more alive we become. But the mystery
of sin is that we resist the invasion of God; we prefer to go our own way;
we cling to our own prerogatives and our own narrow freedom. And the result
is lifelessness. It feels like depression, like your life is going
nowhere—in Dante’s language, like being "lost in a dark wood."In Jesus’
parable, the one caring for the tree begs the owner for one more chance to
manure the tree and to hoe around it, hoping to bring it back to life. But
if no life comes, the tree will be cut down. This is the note of urgency
that is struck over and again in the Bible. We can run out of time. We can
become so resistant to God’s grace that our leaves dry up. This is not
divine vengeance; it is spiritual physics.*So don’t be afraid of
*God!* *Surrender
to him.*
* 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. *
