[Grem] *****SPAM(5.1)***** Gospel meditation

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, the story at the heart of our Gospel for today is *the storm at
sea*. Karl Barth said that *the stormy waters *in all of these cases *stands
fo*r *das Nichtige, “the nothing,” that which stands opposed to* *God’s
creative intentions—difficulties both interior and exterior, difficulties
physical, psychological, and spiritual. *

*The disciples in the boat are, *as I’ve often said, *evocative of the
Church, making its way through time and space*. And those waters are
symbolic of everything that besets the members of the Church. To stay
within the emotional space of the story, *this must have been an awful
storm to have terrified experienced sailors. *This is no small problem, no
minor difficulty.

Do you know the *de profundis* prayer? It comes from *Psalm 130: “Out of
the depths I call to you, Lord; Lord, hear my cry!”* It is *the prayer* *we
should offer at the darkest times of life*, *when we find ourselves lost
and in the shadow of death, when*, in our desperation, *we feel utterly
incapable of helping ourselves.*

*Lábunk együtt járjon, kezünk együtt gyűjtsön, *
*szívünk együtt dobbanjon, bensőnk együtt érezzen, *
*elménk gondolata egy legyen, *
*fülünk együtt figyeljen a csöndességre, *
*szemünk egymásba nézzen és tekintetünk összeforrjon, *

*ajkunk együtt könyörögjön az Örök Atyához irgalomért! *
*Amen*
