Wis 18, 6-9; Ps 32; Heb 11, 1-19; Lk 12, 32-48

“Be like those who are waiting for their master to return…” (Luke 12, 36)

 

  

“What reward will he give us if he finds us vigilant, arms in hand, attentive to preserving peace, humility, zeal? It’s Jesus Christ himself who will serve us at supper, who will be the tree of life, who will be everything. Let us remember this master who, finding his servant watching, rewards him so generously.”
(St. Madeleine Sophie Barat, Conference, 1850)

 

For prayer :

Today’s liturgy calls us to watchfulness. I must be watchful in prayer as well.

At the end I will take a moment to reflect on what has happened: Have I respected the time and the place of prayer? What words, verses, images have spoken to me? What state am I in as I move on from prayer? Sad, worried, fearful or energetic, happy and full of hope?

“Be like those who are waiting for their master to return…” (Luke 12, 36)

｢主人が帰ってくるとき待っている人のようでありなさい｣

 

  

“What reward will he give us if he finds us vigilant, arms in hand, attentive to preserving peace, humility, zeal? It’s Jesus Christ himself who will serve us at supper, who will be the tree of life, who will be everything. Let us remember this master who, finding his servant watching, rewards him so generously.”
(St. Madeleine Sophie Barat, Conference, 1850)

 私たちが注意深く用意して、平和と謙虚さと、熱意を保つようにしているのを主がご覧になったら、どのような報いを下さるでしょうか。食事の時に使えてくださるのはイエズスキリストご自身です。主が命の木であり、主がすべてなのです。彼の僕がじっと見ているのを見つけて十分に報いてくださるこの方のことを覚えていましょう。

(聖マグダレナ･ソフィア、講話、1850年)

For prayer :　祈りのために

Today’s liturgy calls us to watchfulness. I must be watchful in prayer as well.

At the end I will take a moment to reflect on what has happened: Have I respected the time and the place of prayer? What words, verses, images have spoken to me? What state am I in as I move on from prayer? Sad, worried, fearful or energetic, happy and full of hope?

今日の典礼は注意深くしているようにと私たちに呼びかけます。祈りのときにも注意深くしていなければなりません。終わりにちょっと時間をとって、起こったことを振り返ります。祈りの「時」や「場所」を大切にしたでしょうか。どのような言葉、語句、イメージが心に語りかけたでしょうか。祈りから次のことへと移るときに、自分の状態はどんなだったでしょうか。悲しい、心配、怖い、エネルギー一杯、幸せ、希望に満ちて、、、
