First reading Tobit 12:1,5-15,20

‘I am one of the seven angels who stand ever ready to enter the presence of the glory of the Lord’

When the feasting was over, Tobit called his son Tobias and said, ‘My son, you ought to think about paying the amount due to your fellow traveller; give him more than the figure agreed on.’ So Tobias called his companion and said, ‘Take half of what you brought back, in payment for all you have done, and go in peace.’
  Then Raphael took them both aside and said, ‘Bless God, utter his praise before all the living for all the favours he has given you. Bless and extol his name. Proclaim before all men the deeds of God as they deserve, and never tire of giving him thanks. It is right to keep the secret of a king, yet right to reveal and publish the works of God. Thank him worthily. Do what is good, and no evil can befall you.
  ‘Prayer with fasting and alms with right conduct are better than riches with iniquity. Better to practise almsgiving than to hoard up gold. Almsgiving saves from death and purges every kind of sin. Those who give alms have their fill of days; those who commit sin and do evil, bring harm on themselves.
  ‘I am going to tell you the whole truth, hiding nothing from you. I have already told you that it is right to keep the secret of a king, yet right too to reveal in worthy fashion the works of God. So you must know that when you and Sarah were at prayer, it was I who offered your supplications before the glory of the Lord and who read them; so too when you were burying the dead. When you did not hesitate to get up and leave the table to go and bury a dead man, I was sent to test your faith, and at the same time God sent me to heal you and your daughter-in-law Sarah. I am Raphael, one of the seven angels who stand ever ready to enter the presence of the glory of the Lord.
  ‘Now bless the Lord on earth and give thanks to God. I am about to return to him above who sent me.’
 

Responsorial Psalm Tobit 13:2,6-8

Blessed be God, who lives for ever.
 
By turns he punishes and pardons;
  he sends men down to the depths of the underworld
and draws them up from supreme Destruction;
  no one can escape his hand.
 
Blessed be God, who lives for ever.
 
If you return to him
  with all your heart and all your soul,
  behaving honestly towards him,
then he will return to you
  and hide his face from you no longer.
 
Blessed be God, who lives for ever.
 
Consider how well he has treated you;
  loudly give him thanks.
Bless the Lord of justice
  and extol the King of the ages.
 
Blessed be God, who lives for ever.
 
I for my part sing his praise
  in the country of my exile;
I make his power and greatness known
  to a nation that has sinned.
 
Blessed be God, who lives for ever.
 
Sinners, return to him;
  let your conduct be upright before him;
perhaps he will be gracious to you
  and take pity on you.
 
Blessed be God, who lives for ever.
 

Gospel Mark 12:38-44

This poor widow has put in more than all

In his teaching Jesus said, ‘Beware of the scribes who like to walk about in long robes, to be greeted obsequiously in the market squares, to take the front seats in the synagogues and the places of honour at banquets; these are the men who swallow the property of widows, while making a show of lengthy prayers. The more severe will be the sentence they receive.’
  He sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the treasury, and many of the rich put in a great deal. A poor widow came and put in two small coins, the equivalent of a penny. Then he called his disciples and said to them, ‘I tell you solemnly, this poor widow has put more in than all who have contributed to the treasury; for they have all put in money they had over, but she from the little she had has put in everything she possessed, all she had to live on.’

Reflection
Tobit 12: 1, 5-15, 20, Mark 12: 38-44

“Following the example of the poor widow”
Often, we marvel at the great contributions of influential people and we miss appreciating the humble and hard work of the invisible people in society. Today, let us look where Jesus looked because this is where He wants to direct our gaze. His gaze rested on the poor widow who was the invisible person among the rich people in the Temple. Jesus highlighted her offering of the two coins out to His disciples as an example for them.

Many people give themselves to their families, the Church and society, and they do good without any fanfare and seeking to receive benefits for themselves. Yet, Jesus sees and appreciates all that they do. Today, let us follow the example of the poor widow and give our “two small coins”, i.e. our talents, our time, our energy, our forgiveness, etc., for the good of others. We give of ourselves to love God above all else. Let us also show our appreciation to those “invisible” people whose generosity and kindness have often go unseen by society.

Question for reflection:
As I reflect on this gospel passage, what is Jesus’ invitation for me?

5 hb Jun 2021 Hari Sabtu Minggu Biasa Ke-9 – St. Boniface

Renungan

Tobit 12: 1, 5-15, 20, Markus 12: 38-44

“Mengikuti contoh janda miskin”
Seringkali kita mengagumi sumbangan orang-orang yang berpengaruh sehingga kita lupa menghargai usaha dan kerja keras mereka yang terpinggir dalam masyarakat. Marilah hari ini melihat arah pandangan Yesus kerana disinilah Dia ingin mengarahkan pandangan kita. PandanganNya tertumpu pada seorang janda miskin yang tidak kelihatan di antara orang-orang kaya yang berada di Bait Suci. Yesus menekankan persembahan dua duit syiling itu kepada para rasul-Nya sebagai teladan bagi mereka.

Ramai orang memberi diri mereka kepada keluarga, Gereja dan masyarakat, dan mereka melakukan kebaikan tanpa keikhlasan dan mencari keuntungan untuk diri mereka sendiri. Namun, Yesus melihat dan menghargai semua yang mereka lakukan. Hari ini, marilah mengikuti teladan janda miskin tersebut dan memberikan “dua duit syiling” yang kita miliki iaitu bakat, masa, tenaga, pengampunan dan sebagainya untuk kebaikan orang lain. Kita memberikan diri kita untuk mengasihi Tuhan lebih dari segalanya. Marilah kita juga menunjukkan penghargaan kita terhadap orang-orang “tidak kelihatan” yang sering melakukan kebaikan dan kemurahan hati namun tidak dapat dilihat oleh masyarakat.

Soalan renungan:
Ketika merenungkan petikan injil ini, apakah jemputan Yesus kepada saya?

Renungan
Tobit 12:1,5-15,20; Mark 12:38-44

“Nitih ka contoh Indu tebalu ti seranta.”
Suah endar kitai temegah ka bantu ari orang ti bekuasa lalu kitai enda tepeda ka sida ti imun sereta gawa bendar ngagai sida ti lemi. Saritu awak kitai merati endur Jesus meda laban dia meh palan ti deka diasuh Iya peratika kitai. Iya meda indu tebalu ti seranta nya baka indu ti nadai tampak ba orang ti kaya ba Rumah Sembiang. Jesus ngajar ka pemeri dua singkap wang perak nya nyadi contoh ka bala Murid Iya.

Mayuh orang magi diri ka bilik sida, ka Gerija sereta ka raban gerempong, sida ngereja pemadas sereta enda mandangka sebarang utai awak tampak peda ba mata mensia mayuh. Jesus rindu meda pengawa badas sida. Saritu, aram kitai nitih ka contoh indu tebalu ti seranta sereta meri “dua singkap duit”; penau kitai, masa kitai, pengering kitai pengampun kitai ka pemadas orang bukai. Kitai meri diri rindu ka Allah Taala ari atas semua. Aram kitai bebasa ka sida ti”enda tampak” ti murah ati dalam bejalai pengawa badas ba dunya.

Nama kangau Jesus ka aku ba bacha injil saritu?

2021年6月5日 常年期第九周单数年星期六圣玻尼法

省思
《多十二:1,5-15,20》
《谷十二:38-44》

“跟随穷寡妇的榜样”
很多时候,我们为有影响力的人士所做出的巨大贡献感到惊讶不已,而使得我们错过了去感激在社群里谦卑及辛勤付出的隐于幕后的工作者。今天,让我们看向耶稣所看到的,因为这就是耶稣我们聚焦的地方。祂的目光停留在穷妇人,那穷妇人就像是圣殿里在众多富裕者之中的一个隐藏着的人。耶稣向门徒们指出她那两个银钱的奉献,是为了让她的行为成为门徒们的榜样。

很多人为他们的家庭、教会、社群奉献自己,以及他们所做的好事不是为了得到赞扬,也不是为了从众人之中得到什么样的好处。然而,耶稣看见了,并且感激他们所做的一切。今天,就让我们跟随穷寡妇的榜样,以及把我们的“两个小银钱”给交出去;为了众人的好处,我们付出的“小银钱”可以是我们的天赋、我们的时间、我们的体力、我们的宽恕等等。我们奉献自己是为了爱天主而更胜于一切。让我们也向那些“隐形”的人们展现我们感激,因为他们的慷慨及良善往往是不被社会看到的。

省思题:
当我反省这篇福音时,耶稣给予了我什么请求呢?
