25th September 2016 Sunday Twenty Sixth Week of Ordinary Time
REFLECTION
Luke 16:19-31
"The rich man and Lazarus"
The rich man lived a self-centred life. He had all the worldly comforts and wealth, but he had absolutely no compassion for anyone else. He knew of the poor beggar who laid at his gate but he simply ignored him. His behaviour towards poor Lazarus reflected his relationship with God. He had no God in his heart. Lazarus lived in poverty all his life. Yet, he held onto his greatest treasure, that was his faith in God. Even though, Lazarus suffered, he continued to trust in God alone. When he died, angels carried him to be with Abraham in paradise. Today, let us not put our confidence in worldly securities and power. May we humble ourselves and recognise that the real treasure we can ever have is based on an intimate relationship with God as well as to be at the service of our brothers and sisters.
What is Jesus’ invitation to me today?

“如果他们不听从梅瑟和先知”（31节）
路加福音常强调今生来世祸福大逆转，有人先甘后苦，有人先苦后甘。命运一判决，苦乐分两边，越界无望。人若不信经书指引，复活主也无能为力。
在我心目中，圣经的话有多少分量？

25 hb September 2016 Hari Ahad Minggu Biasa Ke 26
Renungan
Lukas 16:19-31
"Orang kaya dan Lazarus"
Orang kaya tersebut hidup memikirkan dirinya sendiri. Dia mempunyai semua kekayaan dan keselesaan duniawi, tetapi tidak mempunyai belas kasihan terhadap siapapun. Dia mengetahui tentang pengemis yang berada dekat pintu rumahnya tetapi dia sengaja mengabaikannya. Sikapnya terhadap Lazarus yang miskin mencerminkan relasinya dengan Tuhan. Dia tidak mempunyai Tuhan dalam hatinya. Lazarus hidup dalam kemiskinan di sepanjang hidupnya. Namun, dia berpegang kepada harta tertinggi iaitu iman kepercayaannya kepada Tuhan. Walaupun Lazarus menderita, dia terus percaya hanya kepada Tuhan. Apabila dia meninggal, malaikat datang dan membawanya kepada Abraham di syurga.
Apakah jemputan Yesus kepada saya hari ini?

Renungan
Luke 16:19-32
"Orang Kaya enggau Lazarus"
Orang kaya nya mikir ka pengidup diri. Iya bisi mayu reta sereta pengaya dunya tang nadai penyinu ka orang bukai. Iya nemu orang seranta sigi selalu ba pintu rumah iya tang iya enda peduli ka orang seranta nya. Cara iya enggau Lazarus nya mandangka kaul iya enggau Tuhan mega. Dalam ati iya nadai Tuhan. Lazarus idup nyadi orang seranta tang iya arap ka Tuhan taja iya idup tusah. Lebuh Lazarus mati, melikat datai ngusong iya ngagai Abraham diserega.
Nama kangau Jesus ka aku saritu?
