恭讀聖路加福音　12:32-48

那時候，耶穌對門徒說：「你們小小的羊群，不要害怕！因為你們的父，喜歡把天國賜給你們。
「要變賣你們所有的，來施捨，為你們自己準備不朽的錢囊、在天上準備取用不盡的寶藏；在那裡，盜賊不能走近，蠹蟲也不能損壞，因為你們的寶藏在那裡，你們的心，也必在那裡。
「你們要束上腰，點著燈；應當如同僕人，等候自己的主人，由婚宴回來，為的是主人來到，一敲門，就立刻給他開門。主人來到時，所遇見醒寤著的那些僕人，是有福的。我實在告訴你們：主人要束上腰，請他們入席，自己親自伺候他們。主人二更來也罷，三更來也罷，他所遇見醒寤著的僕人，是有福的。
「你們應該明白這一點：如果家主知道盜賊何時要來，【他必要醒寤，】 決不容許自己的房屋被挖穿。你們也應當準備，因為在你們料想不到的時辰，人子就來了。」
伯多祿說：「主，你講這個比喻，是為我們呢，還是為眾人？」
主說：「究竟誰是忠信及精明的管家？不是那受主人委派，管理自己的家僕，按時分配食糧的人嗎？主人回來時，看見他如此行事，那僕人才是有福的。我實在告訴你們：主人必要委派他，管理自己的一切財產。如果那個僕人心裡說：我的主人必會遲來；他便開始拷打僕婢，也吃也喝也醉酒。在他料想不到的日子，不知覺的時刻，那僕人的主人就會來到，必要剷除他，使他與不信的人，遭受同樣的命運。
「那知道主人的旨意，而偏偏不作準備，或竟然不奉行他旨意的僕人，必然要多受拷打；那不知道，而做了該受拷打之事的，要少受拷打。給誰的多，向誰要的也多；交託誰的多，向誰索取的也格外多。」

—上主的話。。

(19th Sunday in Ordinary Time)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 12:32-48

32 “Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell your possessions, and give alms; provide yourselves with purses that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 “Let your loins be girded and your lamps burning, 36 and be like men who are waiting for their master to come home from the marriage feast, so that they may open to him at once when he comes and knocks. 37 Blessed are those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes; truly, I say to you, he will gird himself and have them sit at table, and he will come and serve them. 38 If he comes in the second watch, or in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants! 39 But know this, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have left his house to be broken into. 40 You also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an unexpected hour.”
41 Peter said, “Lord, are you telling this parable for us or for all?” 42 And the Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his master will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the proper time? 43 Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing. 44 Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions. 45 But if that servant says to himself, `My master is delayed in coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk, 46 the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, and will punish him, and put him with the unfaithful. 47 And that servant who knew his master’s will, but did not make ready or act according to his will, shall receive a severe beating. 48 But he who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, shall receive a light beating. Every one to whom much is given, of him will much be required; and of him to whom men commit much they will demand the more.

—The Gospel of the Lord.

神父講道 – 聖老楞佐 (執事、殉道) (慶日) (週六) (2013年8月10日)

by pleung | Aug 9, 2013 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

聖老楞佐 (執事、殉道) (慶日)

恭讀聖若望福音　12:24-26

那時候，耶穌對他的門徒說：「我實實在在告訴你們：一粒麥子如果不落在地裏死了，仍只是一粒；如果死了，才結出許多子粒來。愛惜自己性命的，必要喪失性命；在現世憎恨自己性命的，必要保存性命入於永生。誰若事奉我，就當跟隨我；如此，我在那裏，我的僕人也要在那裏；誰若事奉我，我父必要尊重他。」

—上主的話。

(18th Week in Ordinary Time – Saturday)

(Feast of Saint Lawrence, deacon and martyr)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 12:24-26

24 Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 If any one serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there shall my servant be also; if any one serves me, the Father will honor him.

神父講道 – 常年期第十八週 (週五) (2013年8月9日)

by pleung | Aug 8, 2013 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　16:24-28

那時候，耶穌對門徒說：「誰若願意跟隨我，該棄絕自己，背著自己的十字架來跟隨我，因為誰若願意救自已的性命，必要喪失性命；但誰若為我的緣故，喪失自己的性命，必要獲得性命。人縱然賺得了全世界，卻賠上了自己的靈魂，為他有什麼益處？或者，人還能拿什麼作為自己靈魂的代價？因為將來人子要在他父的光榮中同他的天使降來，那時，他要按照每人的行為予以賞報。我實在告訴你們：站在這裏的人中，就有些人未嘗到死味以前，必要看見人子來到自己的國內。」

—上主的話。

(18th Week in Ordinary Time – Friday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 16:24-28

24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give in return for his life? 27 For the Son of man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay every man for what he has done. 28 Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.”

神父講道 – 聖道明 (司鐸) (紀念) (週四) (2013年8月8日)

by pleung | Aug 7, 2013 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

聖道明 (司鐸) (紀念)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　16:13-23

那時候，耶穌來到了斐理伯的凱撒勒雅境內，就問門徒說：「人們說人子是誰？」他們說：「有人說是洗者若翰；有人說是厄里亞；也有人說是耶肋米亞，或先知中的一位。」耶穌對他們說：「你們說我是誰？」西滿伯多祿回答說：「你是默西亞，永生天主之子。」耶穌回答他說：「約納的兒子西滿，你是有福的！因為不是肉和血啟示了你，而是我在天之父。我再給你說：你是伯多祿（磐石），在這磐石上，我要建立我的教會，陰間的門決不能戰勝她。我要將天國的鑰匙交給你：凡你在地上所束縛的，在天上也要被束縛；凡你在地上所釋放的，在天上也要被釋放。」他遂即嚴禁門徒，不要對任何人說他是默西亞。
從那時起，耶穌就開始向門徒說明：他必須上耶路撒冷去，要由長老、司祭長和經師們受許多痛苦，並將被殺，但第三天要復活。伯多祿便拉耶穌到一邊，諫責他說：「主，千萬不可！這事絕不會臨到你身上！」耶穌轉身對伯多祿說：「撒殫，退到我後面去！你是我的絆腳石，因為你所體會的，不是天主的事，而是人的事。」

—上主的話。

(18th Week in Ordinary Time – Thursday)

(Memorial of Saint Dominic, Priest)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 16:13-23

13 Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesare’a Philip’pi, he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that the Son of man is?” 14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Eli’jah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” 20 Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ. 21 From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. 22 And Peter took him and began to rebuke him, saying, “God forbid, Lord! This shall never happen to you.” 23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men.”
