[Grem] Gospel meditation

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, in today’s Gospel,
*Jesus proclaims God’s concern for children: “It is not the will of your
heavenly Father that one of these little ones be lost.”*


*After completing her novitiate in Darjeeling, Mother Teresa made temporary
vows and began teaching in the convent school there and working part-time
as an aide at a small hospital.*

*Once a man arrived at the hospital with a bundle out of which protruded
what appeared to be twigs. When Teresa looked more closely, she saw that
they were the impossibly emaciated legs of a child, blind and near death*. *The
man told the young sister that if* *she* *didn’t take* *the boy*,
*he would throw him to the jackals.*

*Teresa’s journal takes up the story: “With much pity and love, I take the
little one into my arms, and fold him in my apron. The child has found a
second mother.”* *And then this passage dawned upon her*:* “And whoever
receives one child such as this in my name receives me.” This is the key to
the mature practical spirituality of Mother Teresa: in serving the
suffering and the poorest of the poor, one is serving Christ.*


*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.*
