Heiligsein - today

Would you like a saint or a be saints? In the first reading of the 7th Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) states, "Be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy."

The Lord spoke to Moses speech to the whole Israelite community and say to them: Be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy. You shall not hate in your heart against your brother bear. As your fellow deal, and you will because of him no guilt on you. To the children of your people you shall not take revenge and grudge them anything. You shall love your neighbor as yourself I am the Lord. (Lev 19,1-2.17-18)

The call of Yahweh to the Israelites to be holy, it means nothing more than : Because you belong to me, because you my chosen people are, ye shall also live accordingly, or you desecrated the holy name of God.

What the people of the Old Covenant has been said applies therefore also to us. The goal of every Christian life must be to grow more and more in holiness, because our God, Jesus Christ, is holy. As a practical guide to Christmas - to be used and that the Scriptures of the Old and the New Testament. The focus is on the person of Jesus Christ and his Gospel. If we follow this we bear witness to Christ. Then we meet his lifestyle and sacred not only us but also himself.

from St. Francis de Sales is reported that one day he was asked what one had to be holy. He is said to have replied to the person: "Be careful dass sie die Türen sanft schließen“. Damit hat er in der Tat einen Aspekt des heilig gemäßes Lebens angesprochen. Denn Türen, die zugeschlagen, zugeknallt werden können eine jahrelange Freundschaft mit einem Schlag zerstören. Zugeschlagene Türen sind wie eine unüberwindbare Mauer zwischen Menschen, aber auch zwischen Gott. Wenn wir davon sprechen, dass unsere Leben immer ärmer und kälter wird, dass es rauer zugeht im täglichen Leben , dann nicht zuletzt deshalb weil so manche Menschen die Tür zu Gott zugeschlagen haben. Sie wollen von ihm nichts mehr wissen. In Wirklichkeit wird ihr Leben aber dadurch viel ärmer. Achten wir also darauf, that we close the doors gently. But maybe that's not so easy to close the doors gently. Nevertheless, we should strive every day for it. Maybe we try putting a slammed door with great sensitivity to reopen. Let us try the wall that seems insurmountable to overcome. Then we are on track to become saints. Then we meet already made good the claim of God: "Be holy, for I am your God, holy."

fright but we otherwise at high standards. Holy one is not in a day. Christmas will last a lifetime. It's like the child learns to walk. First, it's all small steps and very wobbly on his feet. Often it falls. Must start over again. learns it gradually as it goes and if it is trained well out of it maybe once a great runner and at the end of the runway waiting for possibly a gold medal. So it is with the Holy - be.

Countless times she had sung their songs and "20 * C + M + B +11", Mansionem Benedictat Christ (Christ bless this house), written with consecrated chalk on countless doors. The songs and saying which they recited at every door that opened to them, they knew from the eff-eff: "We write the blessing of Jesus Christ in the year that has now begun, as a sign that all is well God is well disposed to us "at the doors or door frames, they wrote the traditional blessing with consecrated chalk please.. This blessing has since read thousands of East-Belgian front doors. The result of their commitment can be proud indeed: 79741.73 € ostbelgienweit came from the collection together, intended for needy children around the world. Last year, when the action 65530.75 € collected in the DG. Thus, this year's amount is around € 14 210 of the proceeds of January 2010.

" That's great," enthused Thönnes and Hannah, who was traveling with another 65 in the Parish Association Bütgenbach carol singers. "We have quite a lot of people's money thrown in the can. Now we can help children everywhere.

involved Ostbelgienweit the carol singers this year at their 27th Action. Even before the girls and boys had to this year's theme "Children show strength," well prepared. As everywhere in the DG they made it clear that children with disabilities in the so-called developing countries immer wieder neu Stärke zeigen. Ohne Beine Fußballspielen? Ohne Hände schreiben? Im Rollstuhl tanzen? In Kambodscha, dem Beispielland der 27. Sternsingeraktion, zeigen Kinder, dass genau diese Dinge möglich sind! Sie machen deutlich, dass man mit einer Behinderung fast alles erreichen kann, wenn man nur an sich glaubt und die nötige Unterstützung bekommt. In den so genannten Entwicklungsländern fehlt es jedoch meist vollständig an dieser Unterstützung und an Konzepten für gemeinsames Lernen von Kindern mit und ohne Behinderung. Eigene Förderschulen gibt es meist nicht – erst recht nicht in ländlichen Gebieten, wo oft der Großteil der Bevölkerung lebt. Lack of infrastructure, lack of knowledge about dealing with children with disabilities and a lack of resources worsen the situation. In poor countries, children and adults with disabilities often have little chance of an education or work opportunities. Most live a life of exclusion and poverty. Also shown on the carol singers down with her commitment.

Why Does My Leg And Arm Ache

faith must grow

Among good Catholic is a tendency, in matters of faith are all now have 100 percent to do. Alas, a priest says something that in their opinion does not correspond entirely to the teaching of the Church ! Then letters are written to the priest, perhaps equal to the bishop or even to the pope. Some people go to really hunt for alleged heresies.

Let's look to our own heart: What does the reality? Do we want full knowledge of faith? We do not grow rather slowly in the knowledge of faith in, even as a priest? God leads us step by step in faith and in knowledge the truth of faith. Of which today speaks the gospel: Jesus heals a blind man in two stages. This urges us to understand our momentary knowledge of faith as a small part of the infinite truth of God, it reminds us to be cautious when another says something that is not my understanding of faith: Maybe this man still on the way to the realization that I own Perhaps he is also ahead of me.

We have the knowledge of faith can continue forever. We will never come to an end. Let's look at the Gospel: They came to Bethsaida. Since they brought a blind man to Jesus and asked him to let him touch it. He took the blind man by the hand, led him to go outside the village, rubbed his eyes with saliva, he laid his hands and asked him: Do you see anything? The man looked up and said, "I see people, because I see something that looks like trees and walking around.

Then he laid his hands on his eyes again, and now the man saw clearly. He was healed and could see everything very well. (Mk 8.22-26)

The disciples of Jesus have known for some time. They have seen miracles: he has wine into water, several thousand people, he and a few loaves and fishes made sick he healed the sick, the blind made to see, but they still seem not to understand who he is. The disciples are blind to the reality in which they are placed. It is difficult to see them bring. It is difficult to lead them to faith. Perhaps that is why the healing of the blind is described in such detail.

is clear in this healing narrative, especially with the duplicate imposition of hands: that the finding of Jesus, seeing in faith, represents a growth process that only gradually reach their objective. If the healed first says: I see people because I see something that looks like trees and walking around , he received a first orientation, a first light, but not yet the desired clarity. But even this he will be paid if he can touch further from Jesus.
