.<\/span>God’s kingdom is the seed that germinates\u00a0<\/strong>\u00bb They told the real case. A young person, a mathematics student, claimed to be an atheist, not to accept any religion. In order to find the goal of life, he said, it is enough for him to do good to everyone. And indeed he followed accordingly. He helped where he could. But development went in its own direction. He also helped believers in difficult times, eventually he believed himself and even became a priest. Faith is not ideology, but life. Life is then unclear in the beginning. The principle of \u201edo ok\u201c was already at the beginning of faith in God the Father, who is the source of all good things. So the individual person grows in faith, the revelation in the Old Testament grew, the church also grows. So God does not impose a greater burden on anyone than he can bear, and He asks of us nothing but to do at every moment what is our duty and to follow that inspiration, which is inspired by conscience. This is also the living voice of God in the heart of man. There he speaks quietly, slowly, harmoniously. So what is a person? It is no longer what was yesterday, it is not fully what is today, it is not yet what will happen tomorrow. But in reality it is all, because God sees at the same time his entire development.He doesn’t even know how\u00a0<\/strong>\u00bb Country people walk around the fields and like to watch the grain grow. Growth in nature can be observed. Can the development of the human soul also be seen? When it comes to the growth of knowledge, we even check it professionally with exams. Even moral development is observable to a certain extent. That’s why we claim someone has improved or deteriorated. However, the core of spiritual life is how we are penetrated by the Holy Spirit. This is a secret that appears only very imperfectly on the outside. Therefore, we cannot judge anyone infallibly, we cannot say that we know his true value before God. But even we ourselves do not know how high we have grown in our spiritual life. It is certainly not an infallible measure to feel that we are blameless. On the contrary, saints usually felt great sinners. Sacraments, especially St. communion, they multiply grace in us, so they give growth to the inner life, and yet it is not usually manifested in feelings. So the principle of St. Paul that the righteous lives by faith (Rome 1,17) hopes for what he does not yet see. As\u00a0soon as the grain allows, he immediately starts working with an arrow, because there are harvests<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0Previously, the reading of the Gospel in the church began with solemn words: \u201eAt that time…\u201c It was dropped today because it sounds outdated. But we lost something. Everything, that is, what Jesus did or said, happened in a certain, God-ordained time, in the fullness of time. Even in the life of nature, nothing returns. Grain must be harvested from the field at the right time, fruit is torn at maturity. \u00a0Even the inner life of a person who develops has its own irreversible rhythm. No really good deed can be put off until tomorrow. We will understand this when we realize that all the good we are capable of is the answer to God’s love. Even among people who like each other, hesitancy in response to the other’s offer disrupts the ratio. If the spiritual life was just a kind of \u201eaccumulation of merit\u201c, you could say that one day we will do more and the next day we will take time off. The inspirations of God, on the other hand, do not return, they have their time, that is why the psalm (Ps 95.8) calls us, which we pray at the beginning of the Church Watch: \u201eIf you hear his voice today, do not confirm yourself in your heart!\u201c<\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
