Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel Saturday 12 May 2018
"Until now you have not asked anything in my name;
ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.”John 16, 24
Through the intercession of Mary and the child prophets I beseech our Lord Jesus Christ , that our Mother the Church discovers the beautiful features of our Redeemer , and every year the 1st June with the blessing of His holiness the pope should be the feast of the Christ Child !! I am praying so that the happy , playing, mischievous , beautiful, flushed face of Jesus Christ, playing on the dusty streets of Nazareth with the other children , may shine as an example for all of us !! There is not anything in this world , worry, trouble that could be solved more successfully with prematurely old adult lamentation , than with a happy , hopeful childlike drive, that is why I am praying that the Christ Child’s cheerful, happy spirituality, trusting in the Heavenly Father may conquer my dear people and the whole world !!
With love,
Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
Jesus said to his disciples:
"Amen, amen, I say to you,
whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.
Until now you have not asked anything in my name;
ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
"I have told you this in figures of speech.
The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures
but I will tell you clearly about the Father.
On that day you will ask in my name,
and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father for you.
For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me
and have come to believe that I came from God.
I came from the Father and have come into the world.
Now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”
John 16, 23b-28
