come at least spiritually into my heart… Read more »

“Jien hu li jeħtieġ li nitgħammed minnek, u int tiġi għandi?” (Mt 3:14) Din kienet l-oġġezzjoni ta’ Ġwanni l-Battista meta, hu u jgħammed, tfaċċa Ġesù u ried li jitgħammed hu wkoll. Fl-Evanġelju skont San Mattew jgħidilna “ma ħalliehx”; imma mbagħad, meta kellmu Ġesù, ħallieh jitgħammed.
X’kienet l-oġġezzjoni ta’ Ġwanni l-Battista? Ġwanni kien jgħammed “magħmudija ta’ ndiema” (Mk 1:4)… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
“Intom smajtu bil-pjan tal-grazzja li Alla tani għal-ġid tagħkom” (Ef 3:2). Din il-kelma ta’ San Pawl, tgħodd ukoll għalikom. Itolbu biex dejjem tagħrfu u tifhmu li s-Sagrament taż-Żwieġ, li dħaltu għalih bil-kunsens ta’ bejnietkom, huwa għalikom pjan tal-grazzja ta’ Alla. Aħna, meta ngħidu l-kelma grazzja, irridu nfissru mħabba, ħniena u paċenzja. Jiena nispera u nawgura li ħadtu grazzja b’xulxin xi darba, u li meta tħarsu lejn xulxin forsi għadkom tiftakru dik ix-xrara tal-bidu, bejn argument u ieħor… Read more »
