[Grem] *****SPAM(6.3)***** Re: A mai szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel a feisty woman engages Jesus in an argument. It
is one of the only scenes in the Gospels where someone cajoles Jesus into
doing something he wouldn’t ordinarily do.There is a long tradition that
stresses the woman’s perseverance *in the face of the "test" that Jesus
sets for her. *There is another reading that shows *how the woman
exemplifies the proper attitude toward God,

*a combination of humility and boldness, of deference and defiance.But the
reading I want to emphasize is one conditioned by *the philosophy of the
"other." *The Old Testament speaks insistently of the "stranger, the widow,
and the orphan," those who have no one to care for them. *They press upon
us even when we would greatly prefer them just to go away.


*We the Church are the Body of Christ, the physical presence of Christ in
the world. And so people come to us demanding food, sustenance, friendship,
love, shelter, liberation. So often we are tempted to do what Jesus does
initially and what the disciples do: tell them to back off. *
*But the whole of the Christian life consists in remembering the suffering
and need of the annoying other.*














* 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.  (Loyolai Szt. Ignác) *
