15062016 Gospel Mt 6:1-6, 16-18

Jesus said to his disciples: “Take care not to perform righteous deeds in order that people may see them; otherwise, you will have no recompense from your heavenly Father. When you give alms, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets to win the praise of others. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing, so that your almsgiving may be secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.

“When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that others may see them. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.

“When you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites. They neglect their appearance, so that they may appear to others to be fasting. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that you may not appear to others to be fasting, except to your Father who is hidden. And your Father who sees what is hidden will repay you.”

Dili na kinahanglan na ipasiatab pa gajud nato an ato mga marajaw na binuhatan para hikit’an nan mga tawo, laong pa ni Jesus kay an ato langitnon na Father ra an mosukli sa ato mga taghimo.

Sa paghatag ‘sab nan limos, dili na kinahanglan ianunsiyo pa ini parehas nan taghimo nan mga ipokrito para sila dajigon nan mga tawo, kinahanglan isekreto ra an paghatag nan limos kay hingkit’an man ini ni God sanan Sija na’y mahibayo sa binuhatan nan tawo.

Pero uno man tuod na an paglimos, pagpangadje sanan pagpuasa man an pinaka-importante na tagsulti ni Jesus na mga parte na ato sun’don na mga sugo ni God?

Kay amo man ini an tuyo ka importante na mga binuhatan nan tinood na taga-sunod ni Christ na hingkit’an na mga sinyales sa mga relihiyuso na mga tawo.

Ugsa gajud na kinahanglan dili nato hikalim’tan inin tuyo ka mga binuhatan nan tinood na Kristiyanos.
