教宗三鐘經:悔改是向天主的溫柔敞開心扉

教宗主持三鐘經祈禱活動  (Vatican Media)

By Vatican News

Dec 8 2020

走上一條擺脫俗世、罪惡和財富的旅途,皈依並找到天主。這是教宗方濟各在三鐘經祈禱活動中指示的道路。教宗談及洗者若翰的形象,以及將臨期該走的信仰旅程。

(梵蒂岡新聞網)「勇敢」的信眾風雨無阻, 於12月6日將臨期第二主日中午聚集在梵蒂岡聖伯多祿廣場,參加教宗方濟各主持的三鐘經祈禱活動。教宗當天的講道以「悔改」這個關鍵詞為主軸,其意義在於抵拒罪惡和俗世,並樂於改變生命,向「天主的美善和溫柔」敞開心扉。根據該主日福音的記述,勸勉眾人悔改的洗者若翰,「生活刻苦、抵拒表面功夫,並且尋求本質」(參閱:谷一1-8)。

教宗表示,「悔改伴隨著對已犯下的罪過的痛苦、渴望擺脫這一切的心願,以及一生永不再犯的決心。為了遠離罪過,也必須抵拒與之相關的一切、與罪過有關的事物。換句話說,就是要抵拒世俗思維,以及過度重視舒適、快樂、福祉和財富的態度」。

教宗強調的第二個層面是「尋求天主和祂的國」。悔改意味著「放棄舒適和世俗思維」,但這並非「為了補贖而刻苦禁慾」:基督徒悔改,是為了進入「天主的國、與天主的共融,以及與天主的友誼」。這條路並不容易,「因為千絲萬縷的關係把我們跟罪惡綁在一起」,例如:半途而廢、灰心喪志、惡毒詭計、有害的環境,以及壞榜樣。

「我們經常感受到那敦促我們接近天主的動力過於薄弱,天主似乎完全靜默:祂慰藉人心的許諾看似遙不可及,與現實無關」。事實上,天主安慰我們,如同依撒意亞先知書中的「殷切又辛勤的牧羊人」那樣(參閱:依四十1-5、9-11)。有人或許會說,真正的悔改是做不到的。我們時常聽到這種喪氣的話。然而,教宗重申悔改「是可行的」,並鼓勵說:「當你浮現垂頭喪氣的念頭時,不要停在那裡,因為這是不穩固的沙子,它正是由庸俗生活所構成的不穩固的沙子。」

悔改是一份「需要奮力懇求」才能得到的恩寵。教宗表示:「首先,我們要牢記,悔改是一份恩寵:任何人都無法憑一己之力改過自新。這是上主賜給你的一份恩寵,要祈求上主讓你悔改。只有我們向天主的美善和溫柔敞開自己,才能真正地悔改。請你們想想天主的溫柔。天主不是一個凶狠、壞心的父親。不,祂溫柔,很愛我們,有如善牧一般,尋找羊群中落後的羊兒。祂是愛,而悔改便是如此:天主的恩寵。你要踏上旅程,因為是祂在推動著你前行,而你將會看到祂如何來到。你要祈禱、踏上旅途,前進的步伐必將邁出。」

教宗最後懇求無染原罪聖母瑪利亞的轉禱,懇求她「助佑我們越來越脫離罪過和俗世,好讓我們向天主敞開自己,接納祂的話語和愛」。天主的聖言和聖愛使人煥然一新並帶來救恩. – Vatican News
