Love is the reward for those who do good and don’t expect anything in return – The Archbishop

  The Parish Church of St Lawrence, Birgu

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

L-ewwel talba li l-Appostli għamlu fl-Evanġelju tal-lum tkun ukoll it-talba tiegħi u tiegħek. X’jgħidulu lil Ġesu l-appostli ħbieb tiegħu? X’jitolbuh? Ma jitolbuhx ħafna flus. Kieku intom titolbuh forsi ħafna ġugarelli jew ħafna logħob. Jgħidulu: “Kattar fina il-fidi” (Lq 17:5).

Imma din xi tfisser din it-talba? X’inhi l-fidi li l-appostli jixtiequ li tikber fihom?

L-ewwel nett biex ikollok il-fidi trid tagħraf li hemm xi ħadd iħobbok ħafna għaliex il-fidi tibda milli jiena nagħraf li Alla jħobbni, u meta nagħraf li Alla jħobbni jiena nafdah, nobdih u nħobbu… Read more »
