20171023 Gospel Lk 12:13-21

Someone in the crowd said to Jesus, "Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me." He replied to him, "Friend, who appointed me as your judge and arbitrator?" Then he said to the crowd, "Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one's life does not consist of possessions."


Then he told them a parable. "There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest. He asked himself, 'What shall I do, for I do not have space to store my harvest?' And he said, 'This is what I shall do: I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall store all my grain and other goods and I shall say to myself, "Now as for you, you have so many good things stored up for many years, rest, eat, drink, be merry!"' But God said to him, 'You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?' Thus will it be for the one who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich in what matters to God."

Reflection:

Tagpasidan’an kita dinhi ni Jesus na isa ka dako na bisyo sanan kasay’anan batok kan God an pagka-hakug nan isa ka tawo sa ija isigkatawo kay an dangatan nan ini, waya na’y katapusan an ija kagustohan na maka-batun nan kabtangan sa kalibutan.

An resulta sa pagka-hakug nan tawo, himuon na nija na “diyos” an ija natipon na mga kabtangan sanan bahandi na hikalim’tan na nija na may tinood na God sa kalibutan na amo’y nagmugna nan tanan mga butang.

Dili man madaya nan tawo sa ija pagka-matay o sa ija pagpanaw sa kalibutan an mga kabtangan sanan mga bahandi na ija natipon nan buhi pa sija.

Amo na para dako, ko gusto nato maka-libre kita sa opresyon nan bisyo nan pagka-hakug, marajaw seguro na maka-kat’on kita na i-share nato an ato gamay na bahandi sa mga tawo na may panginahanglan ‘sab para kahatagan ‘sab  sila nan kahamugaway sa ila mga kinabuhi.

An tabang nato sa ato isigkatawo amo’y magsilbe na sakripisyo nato para kan God kay amo ma’y Ija gusto nato na himoon dinhi sa kalibutan, an pagtinabangay.
