First reading 2 Corinthians 8:1-9

The Lord Jesus was rich but became poor for your sake

Now here, brothers, is the news of the grace of God which was given in the churches in Macedonia; and of how, throughout great trials by suffering, their constant cheerfulness and their intense poverty have overflowed in a wealth of generosity. I can swear that they gave not only as much as they could afford, but far more, and quite spontaneously, begging and begging us for the favour of sharing in this service to the saints and, what was quite unexpected, they offered their own selves first to God and, under God, to us.
  Because of this, we have asked Titus, since he has already made a beginning, to bring this work of mercy to the same point of success among you. You always have the most of everything – of faith, of eloquence, of understanding, of keenness for any cause, and the biggest share of our affection – so we expect you to put the most into this work of mercy too. It is not an order that I am giving you; I am just testing the genuineness of your love against the keenness of others. Remember how generous the Lord Jesus was: he was rich, but he became poor for your sake, to make you rich out of his poverty.
 

Responsorial Psalm 145(146):2,5-9

My soul, give praise to the Lord.
or
Alleluia!
 
I will praise the Lord all my days,
  make music to my God while I live.
 
My soul, give praise to the Lord.
or
Alleluia!
 
He is happy who is helped by Jacob’s God,
  whose hope is in the Lord his God,
who alone made heaven and earth,
  the seas and all they contain.
 
My soul, give praise to the Lord.
or
Alleluia!
 
It is he who keeps faith for ever,
  who is just to those who are oppressed.
It is he who gives bread to the hungry,
  the Lord, who sets prisoners free.
 
My soul, give praise to the Lord.
or
Alleluia!
 
It is the Lord who gives sight to the blind,
  who raises up those who are bowed down,
the Lord, who protects the stranger
  and upholds the widow and orphan.
 
My soul, give praise to the Lord.
or
Alleluia!
 

Gospel Matthew 5:43-48

Pray for those who persecute you

Jesus said to his disciples: ‘You have learnt how it was said: You must love your neighbour and hate your enemy. But I say this to you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you; in this way you will be sons of your Father in heaven, for he causes his sun to rise on bad men as well as good, and his rain to fall on honest and dishonest men alike. For if you love those who love you, what right have you to claim any credit? Even the tax collectors do as much, do they not? And if you save your greetings for your brothers, are you doing anything exceptional? Even the pagans do as much, do they not? You must therefore be perfect just as your heavenly Father is perfect.’

Reflection
2 Corinthians 8:1-9, Matthew 5:43-48

“Nobody is beyond God’s unconditional love”
Jesus exhorts us, as children of God our Father, to overcome evil with good, with kindness, with love. “But I say this to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you; so that you may be children of your Father in heaven”.

By doing so, we are growing to be perfect as God is perfect. Many times, we associate “perfection” with being faultless. For Jesus, to be perfect is not about being a perfectionist, but it is a matter of loving. As St. John says, “God is love” (1 John 4:16), and so, this is the perfection of God. God’s love is universal. He does not love only a selected few or those who love Him, but He loves all humanity because nobody is beyond His unconditional and merciful love. For us to be perfect is to love like God, i.e. to love the upright and the wicked, to love the saints and the sinners, to love our friends and our enemies. Today, let us ask once again for the strength to love all those whom God places in our lives.

Question to reflect:
What prevents me from loving the good and the bad, the loveable and the unloveable?

15 hb Jun 2021 Hari Selasa Minggu Biasa Ke – 11

Renungan
2 Korintus 8:1-9, Matius 5:43-48

“Tidak ada seorangpun yang berada diluar kasih Tuhan”
Yesus mendesak kita, sebagai anak-anak Allah Bapa kita untuk menentang kejahatan dengan kebaikan, dengan kasih. “Aku berkata kepadamu, kasihilah musuh-musuhmu dan berdoalah bagi mereka yang menganiaya kamu; kerana dengan demikianlah kamu menjadi anak-anak Bapamu yang disyurga”.

Dengan berbuat demikian, kita bertumbuh menjadi sempurna seperti Tuhan adalah sempurna. Seringkali kita mengaitkan “Kesempurnaan” dengan tidak melakukan kesalahan. Bagi Yesus, menjadi sempurna bukanlah tentang menjadi seorang yang sempurna, tetapi tentang mengasihi. Seperti yang dikatakan oleh St. Yohanes, “Allah adalah kasih” (1 Yohanes 4:16). Oleh itu, inilah kesempurnaan Tuhan. Kasih Tuhan bersifat universal. Dia tidak memilih mengasihi hanya orang-orang yang terpilih tetapi mengasihi semua manusia kerana tidak ada seorangpun yang berada diluar kasihNya yang tidak terbatas dan berbelas kasih. Bagi kita, menjadi sempurna bermaksud mengasihi seperti Allah, iaitu mengasihi orang yang benar dan jahat, mengasihi orang-orang kudus dan orang-orang yang berdosa, mengasihi rakan-rakan kita dan musuh-musuh kita. Marilah pada hari ini, sekali lagi mohon kekuatan untuk mengasihi orang-orang yang ditempatkan Allah dalam kehidupan kita.

Soalan renungan:
Apakah yang menghalang saya untuk mengasihi orang yang jahat dan yang baik, orang yang disukai dan yang dibenci?

Renungan
2 Kor 8:1-9; Matthew 5:43-48

“Semua mensia deka ngasaika pengerindu Allah Taala.”
Jesus ngangkun ka kitai ti anembiak Allah Taala Apai, awak ngalah ka penyai ngena pemadas, pengimun sereta pengerindu. “Tang Aku madah ngagai kita: rinduka munsuh kita, lalu besampika orang ke merinsaka kita, ngambika kita nyadi anak Apai kita ti di serega”.

Bansanya kitai deka mansang nyadi kudus baka Allah Taala ti kudus. Suah kitai nyema ‘pengudus’ nya nadai penyalah. Kudus ba ajar Jesus nya ukai pasal nadai penyalah, tang ngembuan pengerindu. Nitih ti ditulis St. John, “Allah Taala nya pengerindu” (1 John 4:16), tu meh Pengudus ba Allah Taala. Pengerindu Allah Taala nya nyengkaum semua orang. Iya enda beciping ati laban pengerindu enggau pegasih Iya endang ka semua mensia. Ba kitai, kudus nya ngasoh kitai rindu ka Allah Taala, rindu sida ti lurus enggau ti pengelakar, rindu ka orang Sante enggau orang ti kudus, rindu ka pangan sereta munsuh kitai. Saritu, aram kitai minta pengering rindu ka semua orang ti diengkah Allah Taala dalam pengidup kitai.

Nama utai ti nagang aku ari rindu ka sida ti badas enggau sida ti jai, sida ti dikerindu enggau enda dikerindu?

2021年6月15日常年期第十一周单数年星期二

省思
«格后八:1-9»
«玛五:43-48»

” 没有人的爱胜于天主无条件的爱”
身为天主父的孩子,耶稣劝勉我们,要以善、慈悲及爱来抵抗恶的势力。“你们当爱你们的仇人,当为迫害你们的人祈祷,好使你们成为你们在天之父的子女。”
如果这样做,那我们就邁向成全的道路,因为天主是成全的。很多时候,我们把成全看成无瑕疵的。对耶稣而言,成全不是做一个完美主义者,说白了,是关乎爱的付出。诚如圣若望说:天主是爱,(若一4:16)所以这就是所谓的成全。天主的爱是普及万民的。天主不是爱那被拣选的或爱那爱祂的 , 他爱人类,因为没有人的爱胜于祂慈悲及无条件的爱。对于我们,成全就是去爱,爱得有如天父一样。那就是,爱那正义的也爱那邪恶的,爱圣人也爱罪人,爱近人也爱仇人。今天,让我们再一次恳求天主赐与力量去爱那出现在我们眼前的人。

省思题:
什么阻挡我去爱好人和坏人,可爱的人和可恶的人呢?
