我有一位天主教朋友，他不幸得了癌症。他說，這是耶穌要他背起的十字架。對嗎？
疾病原本並不屬於天主的創造，但因為原罪，失序也進入了世界，痛苦，天災，病苦，以及持續的罪行，構成了人必經歷的痛苦。

當我每次感到自己很可憐的那刻我是犯了罪嗎？怎樣才能在持續的痛苦中持續地喜樂？
首先，感覺本身並不是罪，是不由得我們的。面對痛苦困難，感到可憐無助，是很正常的。從沒有這感覺才不大正常。但感覺到了，我們就該好好的告訴耶穌，用以奉獻給祂為犧牲，並求取新的恩寵來依靠祂，信任祂的力量。其餘的，就不必多想了。

Let’s begin with the Cross. Here is where we learn the lesson of sacrifice and offering. Jesus came among us. Jesus is God joining Himself to humanity. He became one of us to inseparably join His Divinity with our humanity, to live our life and to suffer our sufferings. He did so in order that we, in our humanity, may also be one with His Divinity.

「天主不會讓任何人破壞祂的神聖教會」，其實並不是新啟示，耶穌在瑪竇福音已說過：「我再給你說：你是伯多祿（磐石），在這磐石上，我要建立我的教會，陰間的門決不能戰勝她。」(16:18)

健康與工作，和天主究竟是否幫我，是一個很微妙的問題。因為醫院的病人很多，但不少病重的仍堅信天主，而病輕的卻埋怨天主。有工作的又未必信天主，但亦有不少露宿者比我們更依靠天主。

在這疫症中，或許值得先問一個問題：究竟生命中最重要的是為甚麼？
Read More →An atheist approached me and asked : “Why does God, who is so good, allow suffering? If God is all-powerful, why does He allow evil to exist and does not defeat Satan in the first place? “. How should I answer?
God created everything good, including Lucifer who became Satan. When God created the visible world, His primary goal was to share His love. And to do that, He must bestow freedom. And freedom He did give, to angels and humans.

When I find myself closed in by the misfortunes and sufferings around me, I usually find myself going through the following: I will first pray. Pray especially by telling God how scared, lost, or angry I am. Often I just sit there. I know the emotions will subside. I need to find God again in […]
