Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel Tuesday 6 November 2018
I ask you with prayerful love , love each other very , very much !Why did not people attend the wedding feast ? Because their own business was more important , than the one who invited them to the wedding feast! In one word : They did not love , they were selfish ! Love is such a leaven , that makes the flour into bread , like the mortar that turns the brick into a home , love makes life , that from our own cells makes tissues , organs, thoughts, desires , in one word gives birth to man in this world!
Love is that force , that by sorting out the pieces of a puzzle is capable from the rubble to form a picture ,changes people into a community, a nation , that from disorganised falling apart ruins can create a new world , from chaos order , a liveable cosmos ! Love can build from hatred , war , the valley of tears the precious Kingdom of God !
The rushing world makes us selfish , sullies us by sin , breaks up our communities , that is why consciously even morning I should quieten down and with great zeal -just like the flickering flame in the furnace- rekindle the genuine love in my heart ! Day after day one has to revive our adoring , fiery devotion towards God , and towards the creations the genuine , life-giving love in our hearts !
Stumbling in the school of love ,

One of the dinner guests, on hearing this, said to Jesus, 'Blessed is anyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God!' Then Jesus said to him, 'Someone gave a great dinner and invited many. At the time for the dinner he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, "Come; for everything is ready now." But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, "I have bought a piece of land, and I must go out and see it; please accept my apologies." Another said, "I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please accept my apologies." Another said, "I have just been married, and therefore I cannot come." So the slave returned and reported this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his slave, "Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame." And the slave said, "Sir, what you ordered has been done, and there is still room." Then the master said to the slave, "Go out into the roads and lanes, and compel people to come in, so that my house may be filled. For I tell you, none of those who were invited will taste my dinner." '
