Láthair Dé

“Éistigí! bíodh a fhios agaibh gur mise is Dia ann” (Salm 46:10). A Thiarna, treoraíonn do bhriathra sinn chuig suaimhneas agus mórgacht do láithreachta.

Saoirse

A Thiarna, iarraim an grásta fios a bheith agam
gur cúis lúcháire é do thoil a dhéanamh
óir is é do thoil mo mhian is doimhne
agus is é an rud is fearr dom do mhian dom i gcónaí.

Comhfhios

Is é a bheith feasach ar rud éigin ná a bheith ar an eolas faoi. A Thiarna, cabhraigh liom cuimhneamh gur thug Tú mo bheatha dom. Go raibh maith agat as bronntanas na beatha. Múin dom moilliú a dhéanamh, a bheith suaimhneach agus taitneamh a bhaint as na pléisiúir a cruthaíodh dom, a bheith feasach ar an áilleacht atá thart timpeall orm: iontas na sléibhte, suaimhneas locha, leochaileacht peitil bláthanna. Ní mór dom a mheabhrú go dtagann na rudaí seo go léir uait.

Briathar Dé

¹while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. ²Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and began to teach them. ³The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and, making her stand before all of them, ⁴they said to him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. ⁵Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” ⁶They said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. ⁷When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” ⁸And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground. ⁹When they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. ¹⁰Jesus straightened up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” ¹¹She said, “No one, sir.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.”]]^,

Inspioráid

Déan iarracht an t-uafás a shamhlú a bhí ar an mbean a gabhadh chomh tobann agus chomh poiblí sin ina ciontacht. Níl cuma maith ar chúrsaí di. Ansin, iarrtar ar Íosa a thuairim a chur in iúl. Cén chaoi a spreagann nó a dhíspreagann a iompar i leith an bhean cúisithe thú? Cén dearcadh a bhí ag na ceannairí reiligiúnacha i leith na mná, agus cén difríocht a bhí idir sin agus freagairt Íosa? Cad a nochtann an sliocht faoi dhearcadh Dé ar pheaca? Cad iad na dearcthaí nó na freagraí peacacha ar gá dom maithiúnas Dé a iarraidh orthu?

Comhrá

“Níl aon cáineadh dóibh siúd atá in Íosa Críost”. (Rómhánaigh 8:1). Casaim chuig an té a bhfuil grá aige dom agus a bhfuil aithne aige orm níos fearr ná mar is féidir liom grá nó aithne a chur orm féin. Iarraim air cibé rud atá uaim faoi láthair.

Conclúid

Lán le láithreacht ghrámhar Dé,
Iarraim air beannacht a thabhairt dom agus mo chéimeanna a threorú
agus mé ag dul chun a chuid oibre a dhéanamh i mo shaol laethúil.
