Man likes to carouse, but afterwards will discover how utterly empty life can become, and by carrying out good deeds , taking on tasks out of love can make one immeasurably happier. Then it is so simple to make decisions , and like the flower , as a matter of course , naturally will turn its head towards the pure light .

The Lord does not run the show He respects our free will, our decisions.

In dancing the movement is the joy, and not strictly sticking to the order of the “fixed” steps . In the Franciscan order the serving love of God and the least of all, is important , and to do this with a happy spirit . The rest is just a matter of minor details….

Father Csaba

translated by dr k.e,

I adore You , Lord and God of the universe ! I adore You in the Holy Eucharist ! I worship You , oh Mighty One , in the tiny host by which You give us life . 

Amen.

Christ’s love like the sunshine ,  streams out onto everybody , regardless whether one deserves it or not .

For me those countries are the poorest , that allow abortions , those who are afraid of these little children, afraid of children who are only the age of the foetus .

Saint Teresa of Calcutta.

translated by dr k.e.

For a monk it’s not the freedom  from something that is the essence , but to become free for something else. It is not the giving up of something that is the essence, but that by this I can serve the entirety , the living God and His love can posses me.

Father Csaba 

translated by dr k.e.

"Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you should believe in Him whom He has sent.” John 6, 29

Do I believe in our Lord Jesus Christ ? Do I believe in His holy teaching, in the world forming power of the commandment of love ? 

A believer deep down in his heart makes a basic decision !! Aware of his weakness proclaims, that he stands by the side of Jesus Christ and trustingly takes His precious hand pierced for us . We do not have to believe in the Church, nor in the priests , it is good to respect, love them we have to believe in Christ and His teaching ! This is the faith that gives us wings , impetus, strength, courage , so that we do not follow our selfish human desires , but Christ and the commandment of love! Over the years I tried with faith God’s precious commandment and joyfully experienced that it is good to be good , that the way shown by Christ is one  that one can move forward on, love really creates life, community, but I also experienced that anger only yields fear, hatred, desperate evil ! You get to know a tree by its fruits !!I picked my life's most delicious , most beautiful fruits from Christ’s tree , for this reason even if stumbling I would only like to move on further on this road  and I am calling , encouraging you as well to walk on this way!! In the quietness of your room get down on your knees and using the words of Saint Francis say : My Lord , my God, My God and my All!

With love,

Father Csaba

A young person can almost be suffocated if the parents, grandmother , granddad , everybody around them, just live for them . They cannot breathe , cannot live , because with all their actions, words, results they have to prove continuously that continuous, great expectation , that their families invested in them as their lives’ greatest undertaking. God loves us so that He keeps, respects our freedom. The parents have to learn this from our divine Master.

Father Csaba

translated by dr k.e.

Whoever violates the commandment of God , and does not decide by accepting life, that person just as the rich young man of the gospel, may keep all the regulations  and all the laws and rules- is nevertheless lost . Christ looks sadly after the self-satisfied young man, keeping all the rules however not capable of embarking on the road of the love serving life ….
