“I AM WITH YOU”: Struggling with Divorce ... Mt 19:3-12--divorce - divorzju ... Discerning One's Vocation

Mt 19:3-12 -- divorce - Id-divorzju

--- Husband and wife are no longer two, but one body ---
FRIDAY GOSPEL OF WEEK 19 IN ORDINARY TIME
Evanġelju
Kien minħabba l-ebusija ta’ qalbkom li Mosè takom il-permess tibagħtu n-nisa tagħkom. Iżda ma kienx hekk mill-bidu.
Mt 19, 3-12

Qari mill-Evanġelju skont San Mattew

F’dak iż-żmien, [Mt:19:3] resqu fuq Ġesù  xi Fariżej biex iġarrbuh, u qalulu: "Jista' wieħed jitlaq lil martu fuq xi ħaġa, tkun xi tkun?" [Mt:19:4] Iżda hu qalilhom: "Ma qrajtux li sa mill-bidu  l-Ħallieq għamilhom raġel u mara, [Mt:19:5] u qal, 'Minħabba f'hekk raġel iħalli lil missieru u 'l ommu u jingħaqad ma' martu u t-tnejn isiru ġisem wieħed?' [Mt:19:6] Għalhekk m'humiex iżjed tnejn, imma ġisem wieħed. Mela dak li għaqqad Alla ma għandux jifirdu l-bniedem."

[Mt:19:7] Qalulu: "Mela allura għaliex ordna Mosè li żewġha jagħtiha l-kitba tad-divorzju u jibgħatha?" [Mt:19:8] Qalilhom: "Kien minħabba l-ebusija ta' qalbkom li Mosè takom il-permess tibagħtu n-nisa tagħkom. Iżda ma kienx hekk mill-bidu.  [Mt:19:9] U ngħidilkom, li min jibgħat lil martu - barra l-każ ta' żwieġ ħażin - u jiżżewweġ oħra jkun ħati ta' adulterju."

[Mt:19:10] Qalulu d-dixxipli: "Mela ladarba din hi l-kondizzjoni tar-raġel mal-mara, ma jaqbilx li wieħed jiżżewweġ." [Mt:19:11] Iżda hu qalilhom: "Mhux kulħadd jifhimha din il-ħaġa, imma dawk li lilhom jingħata li jifhmuha. [Mt:19:12] Hemm ewnuki li jitwieldu hekk minn ġuf ommhom, oħrajn jagħmluhom hekk in-nies, u hemm oħrajn li jsiru hekk minn rajhom minħabba s-Saltna tas-Smewwiet. Min jista' jifhem, jifhem!"

Discerning One's Vocation

=======================================

=======================================

=======================================

Fr Jacinto gives the homily on how marriage was intended to be life long. Marriage is the basis of the family and the family is the basis of society. God alone is the author of marriage. When marriage is no longer sacred anything goes.

AUGUST 25 - Louis IX, King and Patron Saint of the Franciscan Third Order --- Homily --- Ludovik IX, Re u qaddis, padrun tal-Ordni Frangiskan Sekular

Aug 25 - Homily: Louis IX, King and Saint  

Fr. Elias on the life of St. Louis, King of France and patron saint of the Franciscan Third Order. He is a great example of how to combine holiness with worldly authority.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 25 ta' Awwissu
Tifkira Franġiskana ta' 
San Ludovik IX
Padrun tal-Ordni Franġiskan Sekular.
(1214-1270)

Ludovik jew Lwigi IX, Re ta’ Franza, twieled fis-sena 1214 u trabba b’ghozza kbira minn ommu, Bjanka ta’ Kastilja. Din mal-mewt hesrem ta’ zewgha qdiet bhala reggent tas-saltna Franciza sa ma kiber binha. Meta lahaq Re ta’ Franza, Ludovik wera kemm kellu tabilhaqq ghal qalbu l-haqq u l-qima tal-jeddijiet ta’ ghajru. Kien jiehu hsieb mhux biss il-gid materjali tal-poplu tieghu, izda wkoll u fuq kollox tal-gid spiritwali. Kien tassew mera ta’ kif lajk ghandu jahdem ghas-Saltna ta’ Alla, waqt li jaghti daqqa ta’ id lill-Hallieq fil-bini tas-saltna ta’ din l-art. Miz-zwieg tieghu ma’ Margerita ta’ Provenza kellu hdax-il wild. L-edukazzjoni li tahom kienet l-aqwa wirt li seta’ jhallilhom. Issieheb fit-Tielet Ordni Frangiskan u bhala terzjarju ta ezempju ta’ Nisrani konvint sew bil-mod kif kien jghix, bit-talb li kien jitlob, bil-penitenzi u bl-imhabba li wera lejn il-foqra. Meta kien mehtieg iddefenda kemm felah l-Ordnijiet Mendikanti. F’hajtu ghaqqad zewg krucjati ghall-helsien tal-Qabar ta’ Kristu. Miet fl-ahhar wahda minn dawn, milqut bil-pesta, qrib Tunis. Kien il-25 ta’ Awwissu 1270. Il-Papa Bonifacju VIII ghaddu mal-qaddisin tal-Knisja fl-1297. San Ludovik, flimkien ma’ Santa Elizabetta ta’ l-Ungerija, huwa l-patrun ta’ l-Ordni Frangiskan Sekular.

Sultan gust izomm il-Pajjiz
mill-kitbiet tal-qaddis
Mit-testment spiritwali tal-qaddis miktub lil ibnu hadna din is-silta li fiha jinghad li sultan gust izomm il-pajjiz.

Ghaziz ibni, l-ewwelnett ghandek thobb lill-Mulej, Alla tieghek, b’qalbek kollha u bil-qawwa tieghek kollha. Minghajr din l-imhabba ma ssalvax. Ibni, hares lilek innifsek minn dak li ma joghgobx lil Alla, jigifieri mid-dnub il-mejjet. Aktar ghandek taghzel li ggarrab it-tbatija tal-martirju milli taqa’ fi dnub mejjet.
Jekk Alla jzurek b’xi sofferenza, din ilqaghha bil-qalb u b’radd ta’ hajr. B’hekk tifhem li din ikun baghathielek ghall-gid tieghek u ghax aktarx ukoll li tkun tisthoqqlok tabilhaqq. U jekk il-Mulej jaghtik ir-rizq it-tajjeb, roddlu hajr bl-umilta’, u ara ma tinqediex bih ghall-hsara tieghek, ghall-frugha jew ghal xi hsieb hazin iehor. Qatt ma ghandek tirghex lil Alla bid-doni li jaghtik.
Mur ghall-Ufficcju Divin u oqghod isimghu bil-gabra. Fil-knisja toqghodx iddawwar ghajnejk ’l hawn u ’l hinn ghal xejn b’xejn, u zomm ilsienek mill-kliem fieragh. Izda offri talbek lil Alla bil-qima, u itlob sew b’fommok kif ukoll b’qalbek.
Kun qalbek tajba mal-foqra, ma’ kull min hu msejken u mgarrab; ghinhom u farraghom kif tista’. Rodd hajr lil Alla ghall-gid kollu li jaghtik u jkun jisthoqqlok gid aqwa minghandu. Kun ġust ma’ dawk li huma taħtek, imxi magħhom bla taghwig la lejn il-lemin u lanqas lejn ix-xellug. Sakemm ma ssirx taf tajjeb fejn hu s-sewwa, zomm dejjem mal-fqir u mhux mal-ghani. Fittex kemm tista’ li s-sudditi tieghek igawdu l-haqq u s-sliem, l-aktarnett il-kleru u r-religjuzi. Ibqa’ marbut b’ubbidjenza mill-qalb ma’ Ommna l-Knisja Mqaddsa Rumana u mal-Papa bhala missier spiritwali. Thabat biex teqred kull dnub minn artek, l-aktarnett id-dagha u l-ereziji.
Fl-ahharnett, ghaziz ibni, naghtik il-barka li missier tajjeb jaghti lil ibnu. Jalla t-Trinita’ qaddisa u l-qaddisin kollha jharsuk minn kull deni. Jaghtik il-Mulej il-grazzja li taghmel f’kollox ir-rieda tieghu, biex taqdih u twegghu halli wara din il-hajja mmorru flimkien narawh, inhobbuh u nfahhruh ghal dejjem. Ammen.

Prayer to St Raphael - Healing, Deliverance, Protection, Peace, Prosperity, Happy Unions, Purity --- & --- Litany

 

Need an additional layer of protection, looking for a divine healing touch ... Seek the aid of St Raphael, one of the most adorable Arch Angel of God!!

Glorious Archangel St. Raphael, great prince of the heavenly court, you are illustrious for your gifts of wisdom and grace. You are a guide of those who journey by land or sea or air, consoler of the afflicted, and refuge of sinners. I beg you, assist me in all my needs and in all the sufferings of this life, as once you helped the young Tobias on his travels. Because you are the “medicine of God” I humbly pray you to heal the many infirmities of my soul and the ills that afflict my body. I especially ask you to take my petitions and prayers to the throne of my heavenly father and Lord Elshaddai, your special protection on all families and the institution of marriage, to bring physical and emotional healing to all those in need especially those in my family tree.

St Raphael, I pray specially that you will bind up the devil and all evil spirits attacking our family, our community, our nation, bind them up hand and foot never to harm, and cast them into the darkness never to return. I also seek the grace for me and my family tree to fearlessly acknowledge God among the nations and the grace of charity to help the poor and marginalized, and finally the great grace of purity to prepare me to be the temple of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
