[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi Merici Szt. Angéla ünnepén

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, our Gospel for today features the parable of the mustard seed.How
does God tend to work? From the very small to the very great—and by a slow,
gradual process. God tends to operate under the radar, on the edges of
things, quietly, clandestinely, not drawing attention to himself.C.S. Lewis
speaks to this principle. How, he asks, did God enter history? Quietly, in
a forgotten corner of the Roman Empire, sneaking behind enemy lines. How
was European Christianity established? Through the handful of people that
listened to St. Paul in Philippi and Athens. How did the mighty Franciscan
movement come to be? One odd, mystical kid who heard a voice coming from a
crucifix: “Francis, rebuild my Church, which is falling into ruin.” A
handful of followers joined him in his quixotic project, then dozens, then
hundreds, then thousands.*
*So don’t be afraid to do small things at the prompting of God! Plant the
seed, make the move, take the risk—take even the smallest step, and don’t
worry about who notices or how much attention you’re getting. Sow the seed
and leave the rest to the mercy and providence of God.*

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