I am very happy that nowadays we are so sensitive that we are even protecting the lives of the animals. Not only does one have to pay a hefty fine if a protected animal is shot and killed, but even if a protected bird’s egg is removed from the nest and if it’s used to supplement one’s dinner . Lets think about this very seriously :we are protecting a bird’s egg , but with a clear conscience we can kill a foetus ? This by the way is supported by laws giving one a free hand . Can we comprehend what a paradox this is ?

Our Lord You encourage us to do good….but it is not always easy , stay with us we beseech You !
We have to respect not only God , but every creation of God as well even when sadness, anxiety or anger are hounding us The same way as we also expect the respect for our human dignity , the same way we also have to speak respectfully about our Creator , our brethren , everything surrounding us , since everything and everyone is God’s gift. God would like us to present our Creator , but each other as well with trust, respect and let nothing deter us from this majestic road. Wonderful is the trust how our Lord Jesus Christ on the cross on Good Friday respectfully commands His spirit into the hand of the Heavenly Father . Do I posses this respect towards God ? My words, deeds, gestures do they mirror this sincere respect towards my Creator and my brethren? In hard times, difficult moments , in the midst of worries am I able to keep the tranquility of my spirit , my human dignity ?

Sin -unless we want to be freed from it conscientiously - can wreck our lives, it’s like a beast that devours our most precious treasures , or like a flood , that will muddy everything , destroys all that we achieved with exhausting work. This is why that we regard sin as bad , reject it and like garbage throw it out , out of our lives .
Therefore the essence of repentance is not to cherish within ourselves the beast, lets not want to find excuses , explain one or more of our sinful habits or shift the blame , responsibility onto someone else, but wipe it out from our lives .

I ask my Lord to grant me that from His heart a great river may spring in my heart , in the dark night from my flickering faith many-many candlelights may be born , and in any
grubby face , down-and-out being my children discover Him . Grant me Lord that bending down to life , protecting , helping the little ones , putting up with the faults of the weak ones , stooping under the cross , starting afresh smiling , to serve God all the time and the children in my care also do likewise.
With love,
Father Csaba

Our Lord Jesus Christ did not come for an eight hour daily work from heaven, so that in the meantime He can see to, in a part-time position , heavenly matters as well after His earthly tasks, but He emptied Himself , that we may become His only worries-the Holy Scripture uses the beautiful Greek word Kenosis. The essence of love is that I forget about myself and I live for the other.

A child knows that he is small and the sleigh easy to fall off, so within moments he gets up laughing and confidently climbs up again on the hill, to try again to get down safely into the valley !!
Where do I stand with starting afresh ? Am I capable to forgive myself , can I laugh at my own weakness and trustingly start out again ?
Familiar voice ?! “Unless you become like little children….”
Lets become like children and aware of our own weaknesses lets dare to start again laughing , trusting that , God does not ask us to do the impossible , and sooner or later we’ll manage to reach our goal without falling !!
With love ,

I believe that God loves every single person very much. There is no such person , either a sinner or a just person for whom Jesus would not have undertaken His death on the cross. Love teaches you everything . I think, that if you’d people cannot accept Christianity , that is exactly for the reason , because our lives are filled with lamentation, whining . When did I loudly praise God , When did I rejoice in happiness , to give thanks for my loved ones , my work, my everyday food ?

Our beloved Heavenly Father, I ask You very , very humbly to give us strength to concentrate on what You have entrusted us to do ! Help us to spend all our time and energy to carry out our own tasks well . Help me to understand it is better that it is much better even if stumbling , to carry out our own tasks rather than to meddle into other people’s business .
With love,

If I , even though a sinner , can still love our children then how much more can our Heavenly Father love . Naturally He does not keep out of the way sulking , if we get ourselves in hot water , He loves us even then and is merciful towards us, even if our relationship with Him is not unclouded .
