[Grem] *****SPAM(5.2)***** Gospel meditation (Bp. Barron)

[Emoke Greschik]

 Friends, *today’s Gospel likens the kingdom of heaven to a king who gave a
wedding feast for his son*. Notice that *the father (God the Father) is
giving a banquet for his son (God the Son), whose bride is the Church*. *Jesus
is the marriage of divinity and humanity—and we his followers are invited
to join in the joy of this union.*

*The joyful intimacy of the Father and Son is now offered to us to be
shared. Listen to Isaiah to learn the details of this banquet*: *“On this
mountain the Lord of hosts will provide for all peoples a feast of rich
food and choice wines, juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines.”*
Now there is an edge to all of this. For *it is the king who is doing the
inviting, and it is a wedding banquet for his son. We can see how terribly
important it is to respond to the invitation of the King of kings.*
*We have heard the invitation of God to enter into intimacy with him, to
make him the center of our lives, to be married to him in Christ—and often
we find the most pathetic excuses not to respond.*

*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.*
