聖彌額爾、聖加俾額爾及聖辣法耳天使 (慶日)
恭讀聖若望福音 1:47-51
那時候,耶穌看見納塔乃耳向自己走來,就指著他說:「看,這確是一個以色列人,在他內毫無詭詐。」納塔乃耳對他說:「你從那裏認識我呢?」耶穌回答說:「斐理伯叫你以前,當你遠在無花果樹下時,我就看見了你。」納塔乃耳再回答說:「辣彼!你是天主子,你是以色列的君王。」耶穌遂說道:「因為我向你說:我看見了你在無花果樹下,你就信了嗎?你要看見比這更大的事!」又向他說:「我實實在在告訴你們:你們要看見天開,天主的天使在人子身上,上去下來。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 1:47-51
47 Jesus saw Nathan’a-el coming to him, and said of him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!” 48 Nathan’a-el said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49 Nathan’a-el answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” 50 Jesus answered him, “Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these.” 51 And he said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.”

今天一同守麵包齋時,談起腰骨痛最好選擇睡木板床,但想起以前的日子就無此選擇,都是只有木板床再加張蓆就是了,而梁神父更記起睡帆布床的日子。提到帆布床,就想起小時候一家七口一張雙層床的時候。夏天炎熱,晚上的熱氣不散,我們住的中間房有如火爐,於是就跟著哥哥家姐到樓下對面的醫院分局門前「行」帆布床睡覺。想起也覺有趣,每晚都像露營般,與大地同眠。可想而知以前的日子多太平,街坊鄰里都是兄弟姊妹,善良誠實,根本沒有想到要對他們設防﹗可惜今時今日已不復再,每個人都是「防人之心不可無」,「人不為己天殊地滅」,否則就被視為「戇」、「不夠醒目」﹗
「耶穌看見納塔乃耳向自己走來,就指著他說:『看,這確是一個以色列人,在他內毫無詭詐。』」若1:47 耶穌會否向我說,在我內毫無詭詐,或是我已失去原有的天真無邪,做事對人只是以人的標準來衡量。
主,耶穌,請教導我如何以祢的心為心,在我內毫無詭詐,以祢的眼光看每事每物﹗
