How To Request Money As A Shower Gift

XXXII Sunday in Ordinary Time. Year C

Gospel according to Luke 20.27-38.

G approached them and then some Sadducees, who deny that there is no resurrection, and they put this question:
"Teacher, Moses has commanded us: If someone dies a brother who has a wife but no children, his brother takes a wife and raise up seed unto his brother. There were seven brothers: the first, after taking his wife, died childless. Then he took the second and the third, and so all seven, and died leaving no children. Finally the woman died. This woman then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife. "
Jesus said, "The children of this age marry and are given in marriage, but those who are considered worthy of the world and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor husband, nor can they die any more, because they are like angels, and they are the children of the resurrection, are children of God that the dead are raised, even Moses showed him about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. God is not God of the dead but of the living: for all live to him. "

All In Him we live for Him How many weddings in our lives, in search of a worthy companion to fill our voids. By working with health, with our dreams, our plans with our conversation with our unquestionable judgments, with the money, with a little 'peace and quiet, with a house-not-so- large, with sports, nature and ecology. Seven husbands, a number which for Israel represented perfection, all that we seek in our lives, we hope. All that we are fighting for. Everything that waste time and energy.

brothers of one father, this world with his flesh, his concupiscienze, his idols. This scene in the world will soon pass. How to go by, one after another, inesorabilmete, all of our "husbands", everything that we gave ourselves wholly, not to receive in exchange a series of cold slabs dripping with memories, regrets and remorse. Everything goes by quickly because it is the Lord himself who hastened the end of all things, for each of us. Were also the most beautiful and innnocenti. Where in the end we feel that the stronger the bitterness of loneliness. Like the woman who attempted with seven brothers not to be alone.

But it is he who is accompanying us on this journey down the seven steps of the ancient baptismal pools, each step a piece of the world and as a man torn and old A new confession of faith, like the seven Maccabee brothers. A step up to the other dpo plunge, finally, our old man which is corrupt behind the deceitful lusts. To enter the last and final morning, which knows no setting, the eighth day prepared for us by the Father, our Lord Jesus has conquered sin to give us his immortal life. Attracted by the vision every day from the red bush of God's love, that even in the flames of life, there is not consumed and ferries on the shores of eternity.

Our life here is not the real marriage, with seven brothers who vanish one after another. Our destiny is heaven, to which we are approaching with the treasure of the infinite love of God in a clay jar, our weakness as a Roverto burning but not consumed. The God of the living is our God and to Him we live

Benedict XVI: whole man, his whole life is taken by God and in Him receives purified eternity.

This term "heaven" we affirm that God, the God who became close to us there leaves even in and beyond death, but a place for us and gives us eternity, we want to say that in God there is a place for us. To understand a bit 'more of this reality we look at our own lives: We all experience that a person, when she died, still exists in some form in the memory and hearts of those who knew and loved. We could say that they continue to live in a part of that person, but as a 'shadow' because even this survival in the heart of their loved ones is destined to end. But God never goes out and we all exist in the power of His love. We exist because he loves us, because he has designed and has called us to life. We exist in the imagination and love of God exists in all our reality, not only in our "shadow." Our peace, our hope, our peace is based on this: in God, in His thoughts and His love, not only survives a 'shadow' of ourselves, but in him, in his creative love, we We kept and introduced our whole life, with all our being in eternity.

E 'His love that conquers death and gives us eternity, and it is this love that we call "heaven": God is so great to have room for us. And the man Jesus, that is at once God is for us a guarantee that is-being-man and God can exist and live forever in each other. This means that each of us will not continue to exist only part that we are, so to speak, torn, while others go broke, it means rather that God knows and loves the whole person, what we are. And God welcome in His eternity what hours in our lives, made up of suffering and love, hope, joy and sadness, grows and becomes. The whole man, his life is taken by God and in Him receives purified eternity. Dear Friends! I think this is a truth that we must fill deep joy. Christianity not only announced a few salvation of the soul in an imprecise beyond, in which everything in this world there was precious and dear would be deleted, but promises eternal life, "the life of the world to come": anything that is precious and dear to us will be ruined, but God will find fulfillment in all the hairs of our head are numbered, once said to Jesus (cf. Mt 10,30). The world will be the final fulfillment of this land also, as St. Paul says: "the creation itself will be liberated from the bondage of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the sons of God" ( Rom 8:21). So we understand how Christianity presents a strong hope in a bright future and pave the way towards realizing this future.

August 15, 2010: S olennità Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary - Mass at the Parish of Saint Thomas of Villanova in Castel Gandolfo

Luke 20.27 to 38.

S and approached him some Sadducees, who deny the resurrection,
and said, "Master, Moses wrote for us ordered: If someone is married and died childless, his brother, to give offspring to marry the widow.
Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died childless.
The second one married the widow, and then the third. And so the seven died childless.
Finally, the woman also died.
When the dead rise, whose wife is, since the seven had married her? ".
Jesus replied:" In this world men and women marry,
but who are deemed worthy to partake of future world and the resurrection will not marry.
I can not die, because they are like angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
That the dead will rise again, Moses had implied in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.
Because he is not a God of the dead but of living, all in fact live for him. "

all live for Him and in Him But few weddings and marriages in our lives, in search of a worthy companion to fill our gaps. With work, to health, with our dreams, our projects, our conversations with our undisputed trials, with money, with a little peace and quiet, with a house not-very-wide , to sports, nature and ecology. Seven husbands, a number that represented the perfection of Israel, everything in our lives are surrounded, we hope. All that for that fight. All this and we lose time and energy.

We are brothers of one father, this world with their meat, concupicenzias, their idols. This world whose scene will soon pass. As passed, one after another, inesorabilmente, all our "husbands" who have given all fully ourselves, not to receive it instead just a series of cold tablets imbued with memories, regrets and longing. Everything happens quickly because it is the Lord Himself to accelerate the end of all things each of us, even were the most beautiful and innocent. And in the end did not notice but stronger the bitterness of loneliness. Like the woman who has seven brothers tried not to be alone.

But is He who is accompanying us on this road down the seven steps of the ancient baptismal pools, each step a piece of torn world and old man and a new confession of faith as the seven Maccabee brothers. A step after another until a dip, definitely, our old man is corrupted passions behind deceptive. To enter the last and final week, which knows no setting, the eighth day Father prepared for us as our authentic and eternal husband, as was Tobias to Sara, our Lord Jesus has conquered sin to give us His life immortal. Drawn each day of the vision of bush burning love of God, even in the flames of life, is not consummated and we transferred on the shores of eternity.

Our life, the real weddings are not from here, with seven brothers who scurry after one another. Our fate is Heaven, we are getting closer to the treasure of God's infinite love in a pot of chalk, our weakness as a bush burning but not consumed. The God of the living is our God and we live in Him

Benedict XVI: The whole man, his life is taken from God and eternity he gets purified.

The term "heaven" refers not to any place in the universe, a star or something. No. We are talking about something much bigger and difficult to define with our limited human concepts. With the term "heaven" we affirm that God, the God who has drawn near to us, does not abandon us even in death and beyond it, but we have booked a place and gives us eternity, we affirm that God is a place for us. To understand a little look over this reality our own lives we all experience that a person, when it dies, it still exists in some form in the memory and hearts of those who knew and loved. We could say that they still live a part of that person, but as a 'shadow' because it is also survival in the hearts of loved ones is destined to end. God, however, never ends and we all exist under his love. We exist because He loves us because he has thought and has called us to life. Exist in the thoughts and love of God. Exist in all of our reality, not only in our "shadow." Our serenity, our hope, our peace founded precisely in this: God in his thoughts and his love not only survives a 'shadow' of ourselves, but in him, his creative love, are preserved and introduced to all our lives, with our whole being in eternity.

is your love that conquers death and gives us eternity, and this love is what we call "heaven", God is so great that it has room for us. And the man Jesus, who is both God is for us the assurance that being-man and be "God can exist and live forever in each other. This means that each of us not remain just a party, so to speak, we are torn, while the others are corrupt, mean, rather, that God knows and loves the whole man, what we are. And God receives in his eternity that now in our life, made of suffering and love, hope, joy and sorrow, grow and be transformed. The whole man, his whole life is taken by God and purified it receives eternity. Dear friends, I think this is a truth that should fill us with deep joy. Christianity is not only a certain announces salvation of the soul in a vague past, in which everything in this world was precious and dear to us would be deleted, but promises eternal life, "the life everlasting ' anything that is valuable to us and wanted to be corrupted, but you will find fulfillment in God. All the hairs of our head are numbered, he said one day Jesus (cf. Mt 10, 30). The world final will be the fulfillment of this land also, as St Paul says: "The creation itself will be liberated from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the sons of God" (Rm 8, 21). Understandably, then, that Christianity gives a strong hope for a bright future and pave the way towards realizing this future.
