3 From Fr. Antonio's desk HEAVEN IS OUR HOMELAND The Liturgy of the Christian funeral puts before us the reflection from the Letter of St. Paul to the Philippians, St. Paul writes: Our citizenship is from Heaven (Phil 3:20). Truly, it should be that way for the faithful. Even though we are tied to the love we have for this earthly homeland, we should never lose our faithful awareness that we have come from God and that we are going to return to God. The love we have for our Heavenly homeland is then infused with our love of our earthly homeland. Heaven is our home because that is how the Lord wanted it. After the Resurrection, when He left His disciples, he Ascended into heaven to show us where we would go after we depart the earth. Don t let our daily worries, commotion and everyday life turn us away from the goal of our journey. Let us look to the heavens today where our Lord has gone, to the heavens from which He will come again and to the heavens where we are called to join Him. The creator of the heavens obeys a carpenter; the God of eternal glory listens to a poor virgin. Has anyone ever witnessed anything comparable to this? Let the philosopher no longer disdain from listening to the common laborer; the wise, to the simple; the educated, to the illiterate; a child of a prince, to a peasant. -St. Anthony of Padua NEBO JE NAŠA DOMOVINA Liturgija kršanskoga sprovoda pred nas stavlja misao iz Poslanice svetoga Pavla Apostola upuene Filipljanima, kada Pavao piše da je Domovina naša na nebesima (Fil 3:20). I uistinu, za sve bi nas vjernike trebalo biti tako. Iako nas ljubav prema ovozemaljskoj domovini veže, nipošto ne bismo smjeli izgubiti iz vjernike svijesti da smo mi od Boga došli i da k Bogu natrag idemo. Ta ljubav prema nebeskoj Domovini tako onda prožima i ljubav prema zema-ljskoj. Nebo je naš dom jer je Gospodin tako htio. Kada je, nakon svojega Uskrsnua, odlazio od svojih uen-ika, uzašao je na nebo kako bi nama pokazao kamo nam je poi kada se sa zemljom budemo rastajali. Neka nam životne brige, užurbanost i svakodnevnica ne skrenu pogled sa cilja našega putovanja. Pogleda-jmo zato danas u nebo gdje je pošao naš Gospodin, odakle e doi, gdje i nas zove da mu se pridružimo. Prayer to St. Anthony O Holy St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your love for God and Charity for His creatures, made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers. Encouraged by this thought, I implore you to obtain for me (request). O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the sweet Infant Jesus, who loved to be folded in your arms; and the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours. Amen.

5 ZRNCA MUDROSTI fra Svetozar Kraljevi Ja osobno vidim nedolazak ovjeka na misu kao najveu ljudsku nesreu. To je nepopravljiva šteta i tragedija. ovjek odmie sebe od izvora života. ovjek uklanja life-support-system, uklanja život od kojega živi. Sakrament se dogaa kad se susretnu Bog i ovjek i kad se u Božje ime susretne ovjek s ovjekom. U tome život-dajnom susretu dogaa se Božja stvoriteljska milost. Kad ovjek ne doe na svetu misu, on praktino ini nasilje nad sobom. ovjek, koji u Bogu i od Boga živi, biva istrgnut iz Božjega bia. Kad se izgubi ta osnovna prirodna veza Boga i ovjeka, onda poinje grijeh, jer ovjek bez Boga nije sposoban za dobro. Istina, jedno vrijeme izgleda da se bez sakramentalne veze s Bogom može. Ali moramo znati ovo: Sve oružje što ga je ovjek ikada napravio, svi ratovi, sav kriminal, sva prijevara rezultat su stanja ovjeka koje je nastalo zbog odijeljenosti ovjeka od Boga, zbog prekida života u svetim sakramentima. Zato kultura koja je neprijateljska prema Bogu je totalno okrenuta protiv sakramenata. Takva kultura može tolerirati vjeru u Božje postojanje, ali vjeru u sakramente ne može. Neki nevažni Bog može gore na nebu postojati, ali ovjekov odnos s Bogom u svetim sakramentima ne smije se dozvoliti. U sakramentima Bog je živ i istinit i zato neprihvatljiv. Nevjernik sakramente mrzi, odbac-uje ih i nemilosrdno im se ruga. Crkva e dobro uiniti ako pomogne ovjeku shvatiti koji su njegovi interesi. Kad otkrije i shvati da je u njegovu interesu, da je dobro za njega živjeti po svetim sakramentima onda e ovjek povjerovati i krenuti na hodoaše, u potragu za njima.
