IDOMINIKA YA 34 YO MU MWAKA = UMUSI MUKURU WA KRISTU UMWAMI

IGISOMWA CA MBERE

Ivyo dusoma mu gitabu c’Umuhanuzi Daniyeli (7, 13-14)

Ingoma yiwe ni ingoma izokwamaho

Mu vyo neretswe mw’ijoro, nagize ntya mbona haje uwusa n’Umwana w’umuntu, azananye n’ibicu vyo mw’ijuru ; araheza aregera wa Mutama, baramumushikiriza. Aca ahabwa inganji, icubahiro n’ubwami kugira ngo amoko yose, intara zose n’indimi zose zimusenge. Ingoma yiwe ni ingoma izokwamaho, ubwami bwiwe ni ubwami butazotituka.

IZABURI 92 (93), 1ab, 1c-2, 5

Icit. : Umukama arahangamye ku ngoma,
yikwije uuninahazwa.

Umukama ahangamye ku ngoma ;
yikwije ubuninahazwa,
Umukama yikwije ububasha bwiwe.

Isi na yo irashimangiye, (suite…)

Nothingness is destructive. Emptiness is favorable to a spirit of openness and creativity.

Detachment for a “heart that sees” the neediest.

Homélie Today, the Gospel presents Jesus Christ as the Master, who speaks to us about the detachment which we must live by. In the first place, a detachment of our honor and recognition which, every so often, we are looking for: «Beware of (…) being greeted in the marketplace, and occupy the reserved seats in the synagogues and the first places at feasts» (cf. Mk 12:38-39). In this sense, Jesus prevents us from following the bad example of the scribes. In the second place, detachment of material things. Jesus Christ praises the widow while regretting, at the same time, the deceit of the others: «For all of them gave from their plenty, but she gave [the widow] from her poverty and put in everything she had, her very living» (Mk 12:44).

“I have nothing…” “The jar…shall not go empty.”

Today’s first reading recounts the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath. The context is this: the Jewish people stopped worshipping the true God to follow false gods, along with the high-ups of society exploiting the poor. So, the Prophet Elijah informs the king that there will be a drought until they repent. And Elijah flees (suite…)
