\u00cen prima duminic\u0103 din post am auzit \u00eendemnul Sf\u00e2ntului Apostol Pavel adresat efesenilor: \u201eAlt\u0103dat\u0103 era\u021bi \u00eentuneric, iar acum sunte\u021bi lumin\u0103 \u00eentru Domnul; umbla\u021bi ca fii ai luminii!\u201d (5, 8). Adic\u0103 nu v\u0103 mai face\u021bi p\u0103rta\u0219i faptelor \u00eentunericului, care sunt ru\u0219inoase. Iar \u00eendemnul este: \u201eDeci lua\u021bi seama cu grij\u0103, cum umbla\u021bi, nu ca ni\u0219te ne\u00een\u021belep\u021bi, ci ca cei \u00een\u021belep\u021bi, r\u0103scump\u0103r\u00e2nd vremea, c\u0103ci zilele rele sunt. Drept aceea, nu fi\u021bi f\u0103r\u0103 de minte, ci \u00een\u021belege\u021bi care este voia Domnului. \u0218i nu v\u0103 \u00eemb\u0103ta\u021bi de vin, \u00een care este pierzare, ci v\u0103 umple\u021bi de Duhul\u201d (5, 15-18). Apostolul vrea s\u0103 spun\u0103 \u201eNu v\u0103 \u00eemb\u0103ta\u021bi cu pl\u0103cerile lumii, ci cu harul Duhului Sf\u00e2nt.\u201d Acesta este \u00eendemnul \u00een post, dar \u0219i \u00eendemnul permanent pentru un cre\u0219tin.<\/p>

Cum facem aceasta? \u00cen primul r\u00e2nd, aceasta trebuie s\u0103 fie preocuparea noastr\u0103 permanent\u0103, precum un businessman care \u00eencearc\u0103 tot timpul s\u0103 fac\u0103 profit, mai ales \u00een America, \u0219i care se g\u00e2nde\u0219te \u00een fiecare zi ce s\u0103 mai fac\u0103, \u00een ce s\u0103 mai investeasc\u0103, a\u0219a trebuie s\u0103 ne g\u00e2ndim noi la cum ne lucr\u0103m m\u00e2ntuirea, cum ne \u00eembog\u0103\u021bim \u00een Dumnezeu; cu aceea\u0219i preocupare. Trebuie aceast\u0103 \u00eenmul\u021bire a talan\u021bilor care ni s-au dat \u0219i care se face cu aceast\u0103 grij\u0103 pe care orice om de afaceri o are pe lumea aceasta, pentru a afla cum s\u0103 fac\u0103 s\u0103 \u00ee\u0219i m\u0103reasc\u0103 averea. La fel \u0219i noi trebuie s\u0103 ne g\u00e2ndim ce mai putem inventa pentru a mai atrage pu\u021bin har.<\/p>

\u00cen particular, avem duminica \u2013 ziua Domnului, care \u00een practic\u0103 este o caricatur\u0103 pentru cre\u0219tini fiindc\u0103, \u00een fapt, am mo\u0219tenit mult din sabatul evreiesc, care presupune s\u0103 nu faci nimic \u00een aceast\u0103 zi. De aceea observa un profesor c\u0103 noi am transformat duminica \u00een sabat. Ori nu asta este ideea. Ziua Domnului este a Domnului. A\u0219a cum cele 6 zile ai muncit pentru familie, bine, tot pentru Dumnezeu, dar altfel, ar trebui \u0219i duminica s\u0103 muncim cu acela\u0219i efort, acela\u0219i angajament, \u0219i pentru Dumnezeu. Noi mergem la biseric\u0103 \u0219i apoi gata, odihn\u0103. Aceea nu e ziua Domnului. Mersul la biseric\u0103 da, dar restul nu. M\u0103car tot 8 ore s\u0103 muncim pentru El, ceea ce poate \u00eensemna: lectur\u0103 duhovniceasc\u0103, a merge la spital \u0219i a vorbi cu un bolnav, a-l vizita, s\u0103 vorbesc cu un om \u00een depresie sau ce se mai poate face \u00een acea zi. Deci, ideea este s\u0103 m\u0103 preocup pentru Domnul \u00een duminici cu aceea\u0219i intensitate cu care m\u0103 preocupam pentru cele materiale \u00een timpul s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2nii.<\/p>

Evanghelia, \u00een general, \u0219i pilda \u00cenfrico\u0219\u0103toarei Judec\u0103\u021bi, \u00een particular, ne ofer\u0103 fapte concrete de a sluji Domnului \u0219i care aduc mult har, aduc plat\u0103 instant. Atunci vom vedea \u0219i noi ce \u00eenseamn\u0103 s\u0103 fii cre\u0219tin. Trebuie s\u0103 ne \u00eemb\u0103t\u0103m cu Duhul Sf\u00e2nt. \u0218i prin aceste fapte evanghelice reu\u0219im. Nu prin stat la televizor \u0219i minun\u00e2ndu-ne de ce frumos vorbe\u0219te un p\u0103rinte sau altul. Poate s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103, dar nu-mi aduce harul care trebuie, pentru c\u0103 eu trebuie s\u0103 m\u0103 mi\u0219c, s\u0103 m\u0103 angajez, prin sudoarea frun\u021bii trebuie s\u0103 muncesc pentru Dumnezeu.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

On the first Sunday of Lent, we heard the exhortation of the Holy Apostle Paul to the Ephesians: \u201cFor you were once darkness, but now\u00a0you are\u00a0light in the Lord. Walk as children of light\u201d (5:8). That is, stop being partakers of the deeds of darkness, which are shameful.
