[Grem] Gospel meditation + Az Úrral való egység imája

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, *in today’s Gospel*,
*Jesus instructs us in the way of loving others with God’s love: “Remain in
my love. If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I
have kept my Father's commandments and remain in his love.” *

*Much hinges on that little word “remain”—menein in the Greek—which John
uses frequently in his Gospel. God’s love is given unconditionally as a
grace, but remaining in that love is indeed a matter of keeping certain
commandments*.

Here is how it works: *God’s love can truly dwell in us and become our
“possession” only in the measure that we give it away. *If we resist it or
try to cling to it, it will never work its way into our own hearts, bodies,
and minds. But
*if we give it away as an act of love, then we get more of it, entering
into a delightful stream of grace. If you give away the divine love, then
it “remains” in you.*

*This is the great Catholic doctrine of grace and the cooperation with
grace*. We don’t drive a great wedge between law and grace, as some of the
Protestant Reformers did. Rather, we say that *law and commandment allow us
to participate in the love that God is. It’s a play*, if you want,
*of both conditional and unconditional love. And it’s precisely why we can
grow in love. *

*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*
