Friends, our Gospel features what the ancient Israelites referred to as the
*shema*: * “Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone!” *Could I
invite everyone to make an examination of conscience on the basis of the
*shema*? * Is God the one Lord of your life? *Who or what are his rivals
for your attention, for your ultimate concern? Or, to turn the question
around: *Does absolutely everything in your life belong to God? *
But people might ask: How do we give ourselves to a reality that we cannot
see? *This is where the second command of Jesus comes into play. When asked
which is the first of all the commandments, Jesus responded with the shema,
but then he added a second command, namely, “You shall love your neighbor
as yourself.” *
*There is a strict logic at work here. When you really love someone, you
tend to love, as well, what they love.* *Well, what does God love? He loves
*everything
* and everyone that he has made. So, if you want to love God, and you find
this move difficult because God seems so distant, love everyone you come
across for the sake of God. *
*Mi Atyánk, aki a mennyekben vagy, szenteltessék meg a Te neved, jöjjön el
a Te országod, legyen meg a Te akaratod, amint a mennyben, úgy a földön is.
Mindennapi kenyerünket add meg nekünk ma és bocsásd meg a mi vétkeinket,
miképpen mi is megbocsátunk az ellenünk vétkezőknek, és ne vígy minket a
kísértésbe, de szabadíts meg a gonosztól. Mert Tiéd az ország, a hatalom és
a dicsőség most és mindörökké. Ámen. *
