Gospel’s
sharing - June 25, 2013
Benedict Krasaesing
Today’s first reading from the book of genesis describe the quarrel between the herdsmen of
Abram and those of Lot two group must go separate ways. The narrative’s Abram
and reflect in two points.
The first Abram was “peace” not wealth, honor
or security he said to Lot “Let there be no strife be between you and me on
between your herdsmen and mine. For we are kins-people. This peace is marked
with dignity and love. Secondly, Abram’s was characterized by “generosity” if you prefer the left I will go to the right,
if you will go right, I will go to the left. Abram said to Lot.
Today’s Gospel, we have seen in 3 parts. The first “Do
not give that which is holy to dogs and do not cast your pearls before pigs.
Lest they trample upon them with their feet and turn and rend you. This
messages means that are certain people who are not fit not able to receive the
good news is so will to give.
Secondly, we must refrain from doing to other that
which we would not wish them to do to us. As we have seen the parallel to this saying
in negative way that is golden rule of Jesus that message compel us to do a new
attitude to our friend, help other and to be kind to them.
The last one, life at the cross roads. This message
the Jew have been known as well. Life in
every action of life man is confronted with a choices and never evade the
choices. For that passages, the prophet Jeremiah heard the voice of God saying
to him “and to this people you will say thus says the Lord behold I set before
you the way of life and the way of evil. (Jeremiah 21:8)
What is the
way we take it, someone take easy way, they many who take it but the end it
ruin. And hard way and they are few who take it. Today’s we beg God can take
the way of life and compel us the evil way by your gracing’s of God.
