[Grem] Hamvazószerda szentmiséje igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel, the Lord prescribes prayer, fasting, and
almsgiving as our Lenten disciplines.The Church traditionally says there
are three things we ought to do during Lent, and I put stress on the word
do. In recent years, we’ve emphasized the interior dimensions a little too
much—that Lent is primarily about attitudes, about ideas and intentions. In
the traditional practice of the Church, Lent is about doing things, things
that involve the body as much as the mind, that involve the exterior of
your life as much as the interior.*
*The three great practices of Lent—prayer, fasting, and almsgiving—are
three things you do. This is going to sound a little bit strange, but my
recommendation for this Lent is, in a certain way, to forget about your
spiritual life—by which I mean forget about looking inside at how you’re
progressing spiritually. Follow the Church’s recommendations and do three
things: pray, fast, and give alms. And as you do, pray to draw closer to
the Lord as the center of your life and the reason you do everything.*

*Dicsőség az Atyának, a Fiúnak és a Szentléleknek most és mindörökké. Ámen.*
