It’s your decision who you are going to be. Unfortunately there is no shortage in the betraying Judas , Peter turning his back or the judgemental Pilate among us. Many can only just shout “Crucify Him !” , others are just staring foolishly without understanding anything, yet others are sunk into themselves crying and cannot see the way out of our world drifting into hatred. I believe that our world, our people need Mary-s ! Spreading love , singing the Magnificat with cheerful trust, good will, helping their surrounding with honest , hard work making it into a better place ! Life, love are enduring , we can become cheerful , serving children, so lets become just that !!

Herod’s throne is empty! You can occupy it ! You can judge others, the power of scandal-mongering, mud throwing is yours , so many hungry media are buyers for your scandals ! But yours can also be the judgement of the contrite rogue as well, whose judgement was not directed towards others but towards himself and that made him free. Admitting your insignificance raises you up, draws God out, He will take you into His arms with a forgiving love ! Accusation, condemning others will mute love, goodness. God will be silent , He won’t open His arms towards you ! You will remain alone and you’ll condemn yourself by your own judgement.
We have two choices ! I’ll never judge anybody again !

Picture : Good Friday , Christ’s tomb in Körösbánya.
I understood that giving God all I have , I can attain everything. In the yoke of love and goodness, I felt the freedom leading me into the arms of the infinite, timeless God. I was left with nothing and yet, I was filled with such a feeling of wealth / richness that I have never experienced in my life before.

God gave us a beautiful life but also free will….
Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is bliss, taste it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is costly, care for it.
Life is wealth, keep it.
Life is love, enjoy it.
Life is mystery, know it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.
Saint Theresa of Calcutta or Mother Theresa
Freedom is God’s incredible gift. God beckons us to answer His immeasurable trust with love. Our Lord Jesus Christ is telling us , that He stands at the door and knocks, if we open the door then He will entered He’ll be with us and we’ll be with Him. He doest not break the door down on us. This consideration on part of God moves me deeply.

For years we have been raising a brother and sister in Déva who came to us from Medgyes , although they are twins still this year only one of them the charming girl is getting ready for the matriculation exams ! Her twin who even though is 2 minutes older than his sister is a nice young man and during the whole year has been saving his money to surprise his sister with a beautiful dress for her graduation ceremony!! “It was so good to see the joy in the eyes of my sister that opened really wide, on seeing it , I got lots of kisses from her thanking me for the present !! My big son was telling me excitedly I can really be proud of him !!
It is good to see that even in a child protection home what beautiful flowers are blooming, hence the reason why I am sharing this little story and the attached photo of my grown up girl, in her new outfit, with you ….
With love ,

God cannot decide on our behalf in favour being good. Christ lights our way, giving us enlightenment , hope, strength , leads us as well , can deepen our faith , but the decisions have to be made by us. Our eternal life is the fruit of our own decisions.
Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
It is important that one knows, what one really wants. If we do not know what we want we are not going to achieve anything in life . Enlightenment is not sold wrapped up in a shiny paper in a shopping centre . For this we need silence, longing, purification.
Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
Everybody has to pay attention to what God is asking from them. This cannot be judged from the outside . We continuously have to seek what God’s will is, we have to ask Him in our prayers , open up to Him our desires , anxieties , to observe what sort of feelings are in us, and if we are searching honestly , sooner or later we are going to get an answer . We have to dare and believe that God won’t leave us alone, if we turn to Him.

Do not despair and not only because the evil spirit wants just that- satan always bets that God’s wonderful plan, the way out of the problems of our world is not going to succeed - but because in reality there is a solution, there is a future for all of us ! Let us unfold our large wings and courageously soar high !
Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
We could rewrite God’s commandments to the words of the beatitudes: Blessed is the one who adores his Lord, God! Blessed is the one who sanctifies the day of the Lord!…Blessed is the one who honours his father, his mother ! Blessed is the one who does not kill!..And I believe that blessed is the one also, who in the name of God, is capable of sharing his bread with the hungry !
