[Grem] *****SPAM(5.2)***** Gospel meditation

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends,* today’s Gospel declares that the Word really became flesh.* *Why
has the Incarnation been resisted from the very beginning? Why is the
extension of the Incarnation, which is the Eucharist, still such a source
of division?*
I think it has to do with flesh. *God became one of us, as close to us as
blood and muscle and bone.* *It is no longer correct to say simply that God
is in his heaven and we are on the earth. It is not correct to say simply
that God is spirit and we are matter*. *Matter *
*has been invaded by spirit. In Jesus, God became flesh, and, more to the
point, he invites us to eat his Body and drink his Blood. But that means
that he wants us to take him into ourselves.*

“Now, wait a minute!” many people think. “That’s a little too close for
comfort, for
* it means that he wants to be Lord of my flesh and my bones, that he wants
to move into every nook and cranny of my life. My work, my recreation, my
sexual life, my life of play—all those fleshy things that I do—he wants to
be Lord of all of that!” That’s precisely right. *


*Imádkozzál érettünk, Istennek szent Anyja!  Hogy méltók lehessünk Krisztus
ígéreteire!  Könyörögjünk! Kérünk téged, Úristen, öntsd lelkünkbe szent
kegyelmedet, hogy akik az angyali üzenet által szent Fiadnak, Jézus
Krisztusnak megtestesülését megismertük, az ő kínszenvedése és keresztje
által a föltámadás dicsőségébe vitessünk! Krisztus, a mi Urunk által. Ámen.*
