Mass Readings for Tuesday, 17 November 2020

 Daily Mass Readings for Tuesday, 17 November                        2020

Elizabeth of Hungary, Married Woman, Religious Obligatory Memorial

First Reading: Revelation 3:1-6, 14-22

1 And to the angel of the church of Sardis, write: These things saith he, that hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast the name of being alive: and thou art dead.

2 Be watchful and strengthen the things that remain, which are ready to die. For I find not thy works full before my God.

3 Have in mind therefore in what manner thou hast received and heard: and observe, and do penance. If then thou shalt not watch, I will come to thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come to thee

4 But thou hast a few names in Sardis,which have not defiled their garments: and they shall walk with me in white, because they are worthy.

5 He that shall overcome, shall thus be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.

14 And to the angel of the church of Laodicea, write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, who is the beginning of the creation of God:

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold, nor hot. I would thou wert cold, or hot.

16 But because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold, not hot, I will begin to vomit thee out of my mouth.

17 Because thou sayest: I am rich, and made wealthy, and have need of nothing: and knowest not, that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.

18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold fire tried, that thou mayest be made rich; and mayest be clothed in white garments, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not appear; and anoint thy eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19 Such as I love, I rebuke and chastise. Be zealous therefore, and do penance.

20 Behold, I stand at the gate, and knock. If any man shall hear my voice, and open to me the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21 To him that shall overcome, I will give to sit with me in my throne: as I also have overcome, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.

Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 15: 2-3a, 3bc-4ab, 5

2 He that walketh without blemish, and worketh justice:

3 He that speaketh truth in his heart, who hath not used deceit in his tongue: Nor hath done evil to his neighbour: nor taken up a reproach against his neighbours.

4 In his sight the malignant is brought to nothing: but he glorifieth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his neighbour, and deceiveth not;

5 He that hath not put out his money to usury, nor taken bribes against the innocent: He that doth these things shall not be moved for ever.

Gospel: Luke 19: 1-10

1 And entering in, he walked through Jericho.

2 And behold, there was a man named Zacheus, who was the chief of the publicans, and he was rich.

3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was, and he could not for the crowd, because he was low of stature.

4 And running before, he climbed up into a sycamore tree, that he might see him; for he was to pass that way.

5 And when Jesus was come to the place, looking up, he saw him, and said to him: Zacheus, make haste and come down; for this day I must abide in thy house.

6 And he made haste and came down; and received him with joy.

7 And when all saw it, they murmured, saying, that he was gone to be a guest with a man that was a sinner.

8 But Zacheus standing, said to the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have wronged any man of any thing, I restore him fourfold.

9 Jesus said to him: This day is salvation come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.

10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

आज का पवित्र वचन 14 नवंबर 2020

 

14 नवंबर 2020
वर्ष का बत्तीसवाँ सामान्य सप्ताह, शनिवार

🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥

📒 पहला पाठ : 3 योहन 5-8

5) प्रियवर! आप भाइयों के लिए -और ऐसे भाइयों के लिए, जिन से आप अपरिचित हैं - जो कुछ कर रहे हैं, वह एक सच्चे विश्वासी के योग्य है।

6) उन्होंने यहाँ की कलीसिया के सामने आपके भ्रातृप्रेम का साक्ष्य दिया है। यदि आप उनकी अगली यात्रा का ऐसा प्रबन्ध करेंगे, जो ईश्वर के योग्य हो, तो अच्छा काम करेंगे;

7) क्योंकि वे मसीह का कार्य करने चले हैं और गैर मसीहियों से कुछ नहीं लेते।

8) इसलिए ऐसे लोगों का सेवा-सत्कार करना हमारा कर्तव्य है, जिससे हम सत्य की सेवा में उनके सहयोगी बनें।

📙 सुसमाचार : लूकस 18:1-8

1) नित्य प्रार्थना करनी चाहिए और कभी हिम्मत नहीं हारनी चाहिए-यह समझाने के लिए ईसा ने उन्हें एक दृष्टान्त सुनाया।

2) "किसी नगर में एक न्यायकर्ता था, जो न तो ईश्वर से डरता और न किसी की परवाह करता था।

3) उसी नगर में एक विधवा थी। वह उसके पास आ कर कहा करती थी, ‘मेरे मुद्दई के विरुद्ध मुझे न्याय दिलाइए’।

4) बहुत समय तक वह अस्वीकार करता रहा। बाद में उसने मन-ही-मन यह कहा, ‘मैं न तो ईश्वर से डरता और न किसी की परवाह करता हूँ,

5) किन्तु वह विधवा मुझे तंग करती है; इसलिए मैं उसके लिए न्याय की व्यवस्था करूँगा, जिससे वह बार-बार आ कर मेरी नाक में दम न करती रहे’।"

6) प्रभु ने कहा, "सुनते हो कि वह अधर्मी न्यायकर्ता क्या कहता है?

7) क्या ईश्वर अपने चुने हुए लोगों के लिए न्याय की व्यवस्था नहीं करेगा, जो दिन-रात उसकी दुहाई देते रहते हैं? क्या वह उनके विषय में देर करेगा?

8) मैं तुम से कहता हूँ-वह शीघ्र ही उनके लिए न्याय करेगा। परन्तु जब मानव पुत्र आयेगा, तो क्या वह पृथ्वी पर विश्वास बचा हुआ पायेगा?"

📚 मनन-चिंतन

प्रभु येसु ने इस संसार में प्रार्थनामय जीवन व्यतीत किया। और अपने जीवन द्वारा प्रार्थना को महत्वपूर्ण स्थान दिया। आज के सुसमाचार में प्रभु येसु कहते है, ‘‘नित्य प्रार्थना करनी चाहिए और कभी हिम्मत नहीं हारनी चाहिए।’’ इस कथन को समझाने के लिए प्रभु येसु एक विधवा का दृष्टांत सुनाते है जो निरंतर न्यायकर्ता से अपने मुद्दई के विरुद्ध न्याय की गुहार करती है और अंत में उसे न्याय मिल जाता है।

प्रभु येसु इस दृष्टांत में दयालु पिता ईश्वर और अधर्मी न्यायकर्ता के बीच में फर्क बताते हैं। जहॉं अधर्मी न्यायकर्ता उस विधवा को न्याय दिलाने में देरी करता वहीं दूसरी ओर प्रभु ईश्वर अपने चुने हुए लोगों के लिए शीघ्र ही न्याय करता हैं जो दिन-रात उसकी दुहाई देते रहते हैं।

यह दृष्टांत हमें सिखाता है कि हमें निरंतर प्रभु के पास जाना चाहिए जिस प्रकार वह विधवा बार बार उस न्यायकर्ता के पास गई। शायद उस विधवा के पास कोई और विकल्प नहीं था क्योंकि उस समय विधवाओं की दशा बहुत ही दयनीय रहती थी। जब हमारे जीवन में कुछ समस्या आती है या कुछ खुशियॉं आती है तो सबसे पहले हम किसके पास जाते हैं। शायद हम ईश्वर के पास सब से आखिरी में जाते है। परंतु हमारे पास सबकुछ होने के बावजूद भी हमें उस विधवा के समान अपने आप को केवल प्रभु पर ही आश्रित होना सिखना होगा। अपने आप को प्रभु के सामने दरिद्र/दीन बनाना होगा।

कुछ प्रार्थनाएं प्रभु शीघ्र ही उत्तर दे देते हैं परंतु कुछ प्रार्थनाओं में समय लग जाता है। ऐसे समय में हमें हिम्मत नहीं हारनी चाहिए तथा अपने विश्वास को बनाये रखना चाहिए, क्योंकि कहा गया है प्रभु के घर में देर है अंधेर नहीं। और यह विश्वास हमें मानव पुत्र के आने तक बनाये रखना चाहिए। आईये हम सब नित्य प्रार्थना में आगे बड़े और अपने विश्वास को बनाये रखें। आमेन!

📚 REFLECTION

Lord Jesus lived a prayerful life in this world and through his life he gave prime importance to prayer. In today’s gospel Lord Jesus says, ‘we need to pray always and not to lose heart.’ In order to explain this Lord Jesus tells the parable of a widow who continuously kept coming to unjust judge for the justice against her opponent and last she received the justice.

In this parable Lord Jesus differentiates between merciful God and unjust judge, where the unjust judge takes time to give justice to the widow whereas Almighty God quickly grant justice to his chosen ones who cry to him day and night.

This parable teaches to go to God always like that of the widow who went to the judge again and again. Perhaps the widow did not have any other option because at those times the condition of the widows was very worse. When some problems come to our lives or some happiness comes to our lives, to whom do we go first? Perhaps we may be going to God at last as the last option, but we have to make ourselves dependent only on God, we have to empty ourselves before God like that of the widow even if we have everything.

Some prayers God answers quickly but for some prayers it may take time. In those times we should not lose heart but should keep our faith alive because in the house of God there may be delay but no darkness which means to say there may be delay but the blessing is sure. And this faith we should keep alive till the Son of Man comes. Let’s grow in praying always and keep our faith alive. Amen
