"I desire mercy “ Matthew 12, 7
Lets walk today as well pleasing God, lets fulfil with a devout heart His holy will !!! There are so many opportunities to practice mercy ! I encourage you, that like a hound going for its prey , today we also search for the opportunities the same way , that we can carry out the beautiful deeds of mercy sanctifying us ! Lets be merciful with people but also with the animals, plants in our surrounding , and in the twilight of the evening to water our parched flowers is an act of mercy !!
With love,
Father Csaba

Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath
12 At that time wJesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and xthey began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. 2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, y“Look, your disciples are doing zwhat is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.” 3 He said to them, a“Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4 how he entered the house of God and ate bthe bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have you not read cin the Law how on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless? 6 I tell you, dsomething greater than the temple is here. 7 And if you had known ewhat this means, f‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For gthe Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”
Matthew 12, 1-8
