"the power of the Lord was with him for healing.” Luke 5,17
The most exciting and greatest mystery of our world is the one God in the Holy Trinity ! Everything that we know comes from the revelation , the secret of the veil of the mystery of the Holy Trinity was revealed by our Lord Jesus Christ ! Our Master proclaims that the Holy Trinity is fused into unity by love, since I and the Father are one !! Why is every morsel of this revelation so important of this big mystery ? Because our Lord Jesus Christ also invited us to the table of this Infinite Love ! We would like to grow up in the community of mutual love , goodness, wisdom, creative force upon the encouragement of our Redeemer ! That is why is every such teaching is important , that shows us the nature of our life of grace!! The power of the Lord prompted Jesus and quite certainly this is the Power that would like to move us as well ! Lets trust in our Lord God and let His power lead, guide us on the way of love !!
Only this infinitely tender force is capable of leading us into a more liveable, better world !

Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
One day as Jesus was teaching,
Pharisees and teachers of the law, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem, were sitting there, and the power of the Lord was with him for healing.
And some men brought on a stretcher a man who was paralyzed;
they were trying to bring him in and set him in his presence.
But not finding a way to bring him in because of the crowd,
they went up on the roof
and lowered him on the stretcher through the tiles
into the middle in front of Jesus.
When Jesus saw their faith, he said,
"As for you, your sins are forgiven."
Then the scribes and Pharisees began to ask themselves,
"Who is this who speaks blasphemies?
Who but God alone can forgive sins?"
Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them in reply,
"What are you thinking in your hearts?
Which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,'
or to say, 'Rise and walk'?
But that you may know
that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"–
he said to the one who was paralyzed,
"I say to you, rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home."
He stood up immediately before them,
picked up what he had been lying on,
and went home, glorifying God.
Then astonishment seized them all and they glorified God,
and, struck with awe, they said,
"We have seen incredible things today.”
Luke 5, 17-26
