The Gospel of the Day
Four parables
The hidden treasure, the pearls, fisher net, and household.
1. The hidden treasure and the pearls.
Noting is more valuable than God, we have to sell everting to find the kingdom, there is no gain without paint.
This treasure, this pearl, are the friendship with God, if you want to keep your friendship with God, you have to hide to other people, that mean that once you have found God cannot make the same thing that people of the word do. The world will destroy this in your heart.
You expose you treasure to other when you do the same things,gambling, westing time in phone, getting drunk. You have to hide this to other people; you have to protect this friendship with God.
How to protect the things that are more valuable for you… you cannot be left in the eyes of man.
But the is no only to hide, is not only to stop doing sin, more over is to work hard to make the Charity, if you do non pray, do no receive the sacraments you will lose your treasure.
Like a man looking for Gold, in the bush..
2. The Fisher, is the parable of the church.
The Holy Church is likened to a net, because it is given into the hands of fishers, and by it each man is drawn into the heavenly kingdom out of the waves of this present world, that he should not be drowned in the depth of eternal death. This net gathers of every kind of fishes, because the wise and the foolish, the free and the slave, the rich and the poor, the strong and the weak, are called to forgiveness of sin[1]
This is the Catholic Church, we are no saint, we are fool of sinner, now are mixed, but the end of the world will come, the end of the life, how are we prepare for that moment.
A friend with cancer…
Remember, if we have found God, we have to hide to others stop doing the things of the word, and we have to make all the effort to keep this friendship with him even unto death, we can do this with the sacraments.
And we have to remember that we have a limited time, the end of our life is coming we are today one hour more close of our death.
