Ġesù jifraħ bil-fidi ta’ raġel li kien ġej mill-pagani.(Mt 8: 5-13). Jagħtina s-sinjal li hu japprezza l-fidi ġejja minn fejn ġejja. Ma jħarisx lejn l-uċuħ, ma jħarisx lejn it-tikketti, imma jħares lejn il-qalb. U diġà f’wieħed mill-ewwel Evanġelji  ta’ din il-mixja tal-Avvent, li twassalna għall-Milied, nindunaw xi trid tkun it-triq ta’ dan l-istaġun: trid tkun it-triq tal-qalb… Read more »

Din is-silta mill-Evanġelju ta’ San Luqa(Lq 12: 35-40) tispjegalna ftit l-atteġġjament ta’ Ġesù fuq il-mewt. Għax għal Ġesù il-mewt hija żjara u jgħidilna:  “Kunu mħejjija għal din iż-żjara” (Lq 12: 40). Ma ħarabx minnha, forsi din hija waħda mill-akbar misteri tal-ħajja. Ma nafux meta. Anke jekk nippruvaw nippjanaw il-mewt tagħna, u nafu li hemm kultura, mhux biss tippjana l-mewt tiegħek, imma ġġibha b’idejk, is-suwiċidju assistit, u mhux… Read more »
