Fil-Vanġelu li għadna kemm smajna, il-Mulej Ġesù jikkonferma r-risposta tal-Għaref tal-Liġi li jiġbor il-liġi kollha f’kelma waħda: l-imħabba! L-imħabba lejn Alla u l-imħabba lejn il-proxxmu. Jekk jiena ma nħobbx lil ħija li narah, kif nista’ nħobb lil Alla li ma narahx?
U jekk irridu nifhmu x’inhi l-imħabba vera, inħarsu lejn ix-xbieha għażiża tar-Redentur…
San Luqa 11:14-23
Ġesù kien qiegħed ikeċċi xitan, li kien imbikkem. Meta x-xitan ħareġ, l-imbikkem tkellem, u n-nies stagħġbu. Iżda xi wħud minnhom qalu: “Bis-saħħa ta’ Begħelżebul, il-prinċep tax-xjaten, qiegħed ikeċċihom ix-xjaten.” Oħrajn, biex iġarrbuh, riedu mingħandu sinjal mis-sema. Iżda hu ntebaħ x’kienet il-fehma tagħhom, u qalilhom: “Kull saltna maqsuma fiha nfisha ssir ħerba, u taqa’ dar fuq oħra. Jekk ix-Xitan ukoll hu kontra tiegħu nnifsu, kif se żżomm wieqfa s-saltna tiegħu? …
Pope Francis says a true Christian must not compromise: he must let himself be touched by God’s mercy and he must love his brother wholeheartedly or else he will end up being a hypocrite and do more harm than good. The Pope was speaking during Mass at the Casa Santa Marta on Thursday morning.
At the beginning through the Prophets, and later with the testimony of Saints, God has built up his relationship with men in time…
Parishes across the world year after year take up the traditional annual Good Friday Collection for the Church in the Holy Land.

San Mattew 5:17-19
“Xejn taħsbu li ġejt inwaqqa’ l-Liġi jew il-Profeti; jiena ma ġejtx biex inwaqqagħhom, iżda biex inwassalhom għall-perfezzjoni. Tassew ngħidilkom, li sa ma jkunu għaddew is-sema u l-art anqas l-iżgħar ittra jew tikka waħda mil-Liġi ma titneħħa sa ma jkun seħħ kollox. Jekk mela xi ħadd iġib fix-xejn wieħed mill-iżgħar minn dawn il-kmandamenti u jgħallem lin-nies biex jagħmlu l-istess, dan jissejjaħ l-iżgħar fis-Saltna tas-Smewwiet…
God acts in humility and in silence; “spectacle” is not His style. That was Pope Francis’ message at Mass on Monday in the Casa Santa Marta.
Jesus rebukes people of Nazareth for their lack of faith
In the Gospel of the day, Jesus rebukes the inhabitants of Nazareth for their lack of faith: at first, the Pope said, they listened with admiration, but later they exploded “with anger, with outrage”:
“In that moment, this people, who had heard with pleasure what Jesus had said, but did not like what He had said to one, two, or three of them; and perhaps some gossip had stood up and said, ‘But who is this who’s come to talk to us? …
San Mattew 18:21-35
Mbagħad Pietru resaq lejh u qallu: “Mulej, xi kemm-il darba jrid jonqosni ħija biex jiena naħfirlu? Sa seba’ darbiet?” “Ma ngħidlikx sa seba’ darbiet,” wieġbu Ġesù,”imma sa sebgħa u sebgħin darba. Għalhekk is-Saltna tas-Smewwiet nistgħu nxebbhuha ma’ wieħed sultan, li ried jagħmel il-kontijiet mal-qaddejja tiegħu. Kif beda jagħmel dan, ħadulu quddiemu wieħed li kellu jagħtih għaxart elef talent. Billi ma kellux minn fejn iroddhomlu, is-sinjur ordna li jinbiegħu hu, martu, uliedu u kull ma kellu, ħalli b’hekk jitħallas id-dejn. Imma l-qaddej inxteħet quddiemu jitolbu u jgħidlu, ‘Sinjur, stabar ftit bija; kollox inroddlok.’ Is-sinjur ġietu ħasra minn dak il-qaddej, bagħtu u ħafirlu dejnu. Mela dak il-qaddej joħroġ, u jiltaqa’ ma’ wieħed minn sħabu, li kellu jagħtih mitt dinar; qabdu minn għonqu u beda jagħfsu…
