二月廿九

宗4:13-21

詠118 上主，我感謝祢，因為祢俯允了我。

谷16:9-15

一週的第一天清晨，耶穌復活後，首先顯現給瑪利亞瑪達肋納，祂曾經在她身上逐出七個邪魔。她去把消息報告給那些從前和祂一起的門徒們。他們正在哀悼哭泣，聽說耶穌復活了，還讓她看見；他們都不信。之後，祂又用另一種形象，顯現給其中兩個往鄉下去的門徒。他們就回去告訴其餘的人，但那些人也不信他們。最後，當那十一人坐席時，耶穌顯現給他們，責備他們的不信和頑固，因為他們拒絕相信那些在祂復活後看見過祂的人。然後，祂對他們說：「你們往全世界去，向所有的人宣講福音。」

反省

宗徒們是「沒有讀過書的平常人」，而瑪利亞·瑪達肋納是曾附過七個魔鬼的人。但這都沒有妨礙他們成為福音的使者。宣講福音，不是靠學識，而是憑見證；不以理論說服人，而是以生命感化人；不是靠我們的能耐，而是依靠主。因為我們所宣講的天主，不是一個抽象的概念，而是與我們在生命中相遇的天父。罪人可以宣講天主的仁慈，見證天主的寬恕；沒有文化的人，可以舉證自己生命中活生生的信仰經歷。用心體悟信仰的人，怎麼可能經歷不到天主的美好呢？見證過天主美善的我們，怎能向世人隱瞞天主愛人的喜訊呢？（「我靈讚頌主 iBreviarium」── 樂仁出版社供稿）

Saturday in the Octave of Easter Lectionary: 266 Reading I Acts 4:13-21

Observing the boldness of Peter and John and perceiving them to be uneducated, ordinary men, the leaders, elders, and scribes were amazed, and they recognized them as the companions of Jesus. Then when they saw the man who had been cured standing there with them, they could say nothing in reply. So they ordered them to leave the Sanhedrin, and conferred with one another, saying, “What are we to do with these men? Everyone living in Jerusalem knows that a remarkable sign was done through them, and we cannot deny it. But so that it may not be spread any further among the people, let us give them a stern warning never again to speak to anyone in this name.” So they called them back and ordered them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. Peter and John, however, said to them in reply, “Whether it is right in the sight of God for us to obey you rather than God, you be the judges. It is impossible for us not to speak about what we have seen and heard.” After threatening them further, they released them, finding no way to punish them, on account of the people who were all praising God for what had happened.

Responsorial Psalm 118:1 and 14-15ab, 16-18, 19-21 R. (21a)

I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me. or:

R. Alleluia. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his mercy endures forever. My strength and my courage is the LORD, and he has been my savior. The joyful shout of victory in the tents of the just.

R. I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me. or:

R. Alleluia. “The right hand of the LORD is exalted; the right hand of the LORD has struck with power.” I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. Though the LORD has indeed chastised me, yet he has not delivered me to death.

R. I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me. or:

R. Alleluia. Open to me the gates of justice; I will enter them and give thanks to the LORD. This is the gate of the LORD; the just shall enter it. I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me and have been my savior.

R. I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me. or:

R. Alleluia. Alleluia

Ps 118:24

R. Alleluia, alleluia. This is the day the LORD has made; let us be glad and rejoice in it.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel Mk 16:9-15

When Jesus had risen, early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons. She went and told his companions who were mourning and weeping. When they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe. After this he appeared in another form to two of them walking along on their way to the country. They returned and told the others; but they did not believe them either. But later, as the Eleven were at table, he appeared to them and rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart because they had not believed those who saw him after he had been raised. He said to them, “Go into the whole world and proclaim the Gospel to every creature.”

聖巴德莫原籍波斯彼肋巴，他創建了修院一座。三七六年被捕，囚禁地牢，飽受酷刑。

那時，有一個教徒納森，在朝廷供職，也因宗教信仰被捕。最初他很堅定，不肯背教，到後來，熬刑不住，意志開始動搖。為了測試他是否真心背教，國王命他親手用劍殺死巴德莫；假如他肯這樣做，就能恢復原職。

人們把巴德莫解到納森的獄室。納森提著劍上前，當他正想舉劍時，突覺驚慌起來，呆若木雞地站著。巴德莫很鎮靜地對他說：「納森我友，你還不醒悟。我很願意為主流血致命，可是我希望死在別人的刀劍下，而不要死在你手中。」納森硬著心，用力砍割，可是他的手在顫抖，連斬了幾下，才把巴德莫殺死。

4.10（六）相信和見證 復活節八日慶 瑪爾谷福音十六9-15
（聆聽聖言）
——————————

一週的第一天，清早，耶穌復活後，首先顯現給瑪利亞．瑪達肋納：耶穌曾從她身上逐出過七個魔鬼。她去報告那些一向同耶穌在一起的人，那時，他們正在哀號哭泣。他們聽說耶穌活了，並顯現於她，他們卻不相信。
此後，他們中有兩個人往鄉下去；走路的時候，耶穌藉了另一個形狀顯現給他們。他們就去報告其餘的人，但那些人對他們也不相信。
最後，當他們十一人坐席的時候，耶穌顯現給他們，責斥他們的無信和心硬，因為他們不信那些在祂由死者中復活後，見了祂的人。
然後耶穌對他們說：「你們往普天下去，向一切受造物宣傳福音。」

(釋經小幫手)

你是一個容易相信他人所説的話的人嗎？還是一個有很多懷疑，非眼見爲憑不可的人？假設有人對你說：曾經對你不好的人已經改變了，現在是個又和藹又溫良的人，你會馬上相信嗎？或是你會說：「除非我親眼看見我都不肯相信。」

福音中，我們看到耶穌的門徒就是這樣的人。雖然瑪利亞．瑪達肋納和另外兩個門徒都先後告訴他們耶穌已經復活且顯現給他們，門徒們卻仍然不肯相信，非要等到耶穌在他們坐席、親自顯現給他們時，他們才相信。耶穌責斥他們無信和心硬，因爲他們不願相信耶穌派來的見證人！試問，今天如果耶穌顯現給我們，祂是否也會責斥我們的無信和心硬？

我們真的是無信和心硬的嗎?其實對很多日常生活上的事，有不少事情我們不知道或沒有看到效果卻也相信了。比方說對於健康食品，一般人聽到別人說吃什麽對身體好都會願意嘗試。

今天，不妨讓我們好好和耶穌心對心的交談，在信仰方面到底你面對的最大挑戰是什麼？耶穌其實都瞭解我們的困難。只要我們坦誠對祂說，也勇敢尋求答案，耶穌一定會幫我們把信仰活得更真、更深。

福音中，我們看到耶穌並沒有等到門徒們的信德百分百堅定以後才派遣他們去宣傳福音，祂知道他們的信德只會隨著他們與他人分享才會成長。

我們也是如此。讓我們不要害怕去見證我們所認識的耶穌！

(品嚐聖言)

反思在你與耶穌的經驗中，哪些是讓你記憶深刻，堅定你信仰的？

(活出聖言)

今天試著和耶穌建立關係，與祂分享你遇到的挑戰和困難。

(全心祈禱)

主耶穌，雖然我對信仰不了解，但我想要更認識祢，成為祢的朋友。

4月10日   我們的教會牧者 
我們愛戴、尊敬我們的教會牧者，但也可能厭惡、鄙視他們。我們指望他們能借著祈禱、教導、指引，讓我們與天主更親近。因此，我們仔細觀察他們的行為，評析他們的言詞。正因為我們對他們有超人的期望，有時甚至不自覺。因此一旦發現他們也是一介凡人，會有受騙、失望的感受。原先的仰慕之情變成了不可遏抑的憤怒。 
我們要愛我們的教會牧者，寬恕他們的過錯，視他們如弟兄姐妹，讓他們在自己的傷痛、軟弱中帶領我們更貼近主耶穌的心靈。~ 盧雲神父
