Dé Máirt 10 Márta
Láthair Dé
A Thiarna, cuidigh liom a bheith oscailte duit
ar feadh an tráth seo, agus cúramaí an tsaoil á chur ar leataobh agam.
Líon mo smaointe le Do shíocháin agus le do Ghrá.
Saoirse
A Thiarna deonaigh dom an grásta
chun saoirse spioraid a bheith agam.
Glan mo chroí agus m’anam
ionas go mairfidh mé go lúcháireach i do Ghrá.
Comhfhios
Cá mothaím dóchas, spreagadh agus réimsí fáis i mo shaol? Trí bhreathnú siar le cúpla mí anuas, b’fhéidir go bhfeicfidh mé cé na gníomhaíochtaí agus na hócáidí a chruthaigh torthaí saibhre. Má thugaim réimsí dá leithéid faoi deara, cinnfidh mé am agus spás a thabhairt do na réímsí sin amach anseo.
Briathar Dé
Matthew 18:21-35 NRSVue21Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, if my brother or sister sins against me, how often should I forgive? As many as seven times?” 22Jesus said to him, “Not seven times, but, I tell you, seventy-seven times.
23“For this reason the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his slaves. 24When he began the reckoning, one who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him, 25and, as he could not pay, the lord ordered him to be sold, together with his wife and children and all his possessions and payment to be made. 26So the slave fell on his knees before him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’ 27And out of pity for him, the lord of that slave released him and forgave him the debt. 28But that same slave, as he went out, came upon one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii, and seizing him by the throat he said, ‘Pay what you owe.’ 29Then his fellow slave fell down and pleaded with him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you.’ 30But he refused; then he went and threw him into prison until he would pay the debt. 31When his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord all that had taken place. 32Then his lord summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked slave! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33Should you not have had mercy on your fellow slave, as I had mercy on you?’ 34And in anger his lord handed him over to be tortured until he would pay his entire debt. 35So my heavenly Father will also do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”
Inspioráid
Táimid ag machnamh inniu ar an mbronntanas iontach atá ann am a thabhairt do dhaoine eile. Mar sin a bhí sé leis an rí flaithiúil a thug go leor ama dá shearbhónta chun an drochfhiachas a raibh sé féin ann a réiteach. Go gairid ina dhiaidh sin, bhuail an seirbhíseach a raibh an cineáltas sin air le comh-fhear tí a bhí i bhfad níos ísle síos an slabhra bia. D'iarr an dara seirbhíseach seo am freisin chun a chuid cúrsaí a chur in ord, ach níor tugadh aon cheann dó. B'fhéidir gurb é an teachtaireacht dúinn ná go bhfuil Dia i bhfad níos flaithiúla ná mar atáimid féin agus go bhféadfaimis an t-am a theastaíonn uathu a thabhairt do dhaoine eile chun aibiú mar ba mhaith le Dia.
Comhrá
A Íosa, bíonn tú i gcónaí ann ag fanacht orm.
Uaireanta bím in abar
le cúramaí an tsaoil seo.
Deonaigh go raibh mé socair níos minicí,
Chun taithí a fháil ar Do shíocháin, ar do shuaimhneas.
Conclúid
Gabhaim buíochas le Dia as na cúpla nóiméad seo a chaitheamar le chéile agus as aon léargas a fuair mé maidir leis an téacs.
