ZLO I DOBRO

Ovih dana Amerika i svijet žive u sjeni smrti. Vijesti iz New Yorka preplavile su svijet, zapanjile sve ljude, dovele u pitanje strukture, vrijednosti, politike, pa čak i ljudski odnos s Bogom.

Iznad svega, više nego vidljivo je da se ljudi boje. Strah vlada na sve strane. Strah je dio zla. Zlo utire strah. Oni su dio istog kruga. Iza svega toga stoji ništavilo. A ništavilo je dio besmisla. U tom kontekstu sjetimo se zanimljivog događaja vezanog za taj crni utorak, 11. rujna. Naime slijedeći dan nakon tragedije, American Airlines i United Airlines postavili su na uzletištima dva velika panela. Na njima su bila ispisana imena putnika. A kasnije obitelj, rodbina ili prijatelji dopisivali su uz njihova imena i svoja imena kako bi ih se moglo kontaktirati. Samo iza prva tri imena nije stajalo NIŠTA. Ta imena su bila imena terorista. Drugim riječima, IZA ZLA UVIJEK STOJI NIŠTAVILO, IZA ZLA JE UVIJEK NIŠTA. ZLO NEMA POTPORU, ZLO NEMA BUDUĆNOST, ZLO JEST NIŠTA. A ništa nije život nego jest smrt. Stoga valja ponovno utvrditi da je najveći neprijatelj ZLA u stvari dobro. Zlo se boji dobra, ono se boji dobrih ljudi. Zlo bježi od dobrote. I što više činite dobra - to vas je manje strah. Što više činite dobra, to ste dalje od zla.

Zato vas danas pozivam nemojte živjeti u strahu. Oni koji čine dobro, nemaju straha, jer jednostavno nisu na strani zla.

Mi koji vjerujemo i ovih dana smo svjedoci da nije sve u ljudskim rukama, da čovjek ne može kontrolirati sve. Čovjek je bitno nesavršeno biće i u danima zla i u danima tjeskobe i u danima potrebne mudrosti mora se okrenuti nebu i pitati za pomoć i savjet. Činimo to upravo ovih dana!

! Ovog vikenda posebno se sjetimo četvorice mladih ljudi hrvatskog porijekla koji su izgubili živote u napadu Zla na New York. Njihova imena su: Dominik Mirković, Alfred Vukoša, Ronald Tartar i Anthony Jović. Suosjećamo s njihovim obiteljima i molimo Gospodina da im udijeli svoj mir!

! Poslije mise u maloj dvorani ponovno se služe kava, kolači i piće. Nakon ljeta ponovno smo u istom rasporedu. U maloj dvorani su nabavljene nove stolice. Molimo Vas čuvajte ovaj prostor urednim. Kod gosp. Josipa Novaka moñete dobiti novine i knjige.

! Molimo vas držite crkvu čistu. Nemojte u klupama ostavljati papir, maramice, itd. Hvala.

! Hrvatska škola se održava svake subote. Vježbe tamburice su nedjeljom u 5 sati. Molimo roditelje da na vrijeme dovode svoju djecu.

PEACE

We must pray for peace on earth. We must. Peace musn't be only a dream. The torch of hope must shine brightly. We have to carry it always and share it with everyone. Every moment has led to this precise moment. Peace must prevail. We must join people all over the world and first bring peace to our hearts through faith, and then our faith will allow us to carry a message of great hope and healing. We must embrace one another and be compassionate. We must respect life and live in harmony. Instead of celebrating our diversities, we often use them as a reason for conflict. The basis for life is love. We need to seek and promote love, and share our spirit with all. We must support peace. It is not merely a state of mind. Peace is a philosophy that needs to be fully understood. It is a total love of what surrounds us, not blindly and thoughtlessly, but completely. Through God's grace, today we must experience more peace in our minds, hearts, and souls, and more true freedom. We not only need physical freedom, but freedom that transcends the physical world. It's a freedom that few understand, yet this freedom, when experienced through God's grace, will set us free from all the pain, suffering, and agony that we encounter. "Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." (John 14:27) Jesus said, "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world." (John 16:33) He also said, "Blessed are the peacemakers." This true peace, peace of mind, and peace of heart, is made possible when we trust Jesus Christ as our Savior. This is what makes the difference. In this world of turmoil and uncertainty, do you have the peace that passes all understanding? You can have it. Peace and love in the present day... is it possible? Yes, it is, through Jesus Christ. HIS LOVE is the answer to all evil. (M)
