LK 2:22-35
When the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, the parents of Jesus took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord, and to offer the sacrifice of a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons, in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord.
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon.
This man was righteous and devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
He came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to perform the custom of the law in regard to him, he took him into his arms and blessed God, saying: “Lord, now let your servant go in peace; your word has been fulfilled: my own eyes have seen the salvation which you prepared in the sight of every people, a light to reveal you to the nations and the glory of your people Israel.”
The child’s father and mother were amazed at what was said about him; and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted(and you yourself a sword will pierce) so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
그리하여 당신의 영혼이 칼에 꿰찔리는 가운데, 많은 사람의 마음속 생각이 드러날 것입니다.” (루카 2,35)
어둠이 지나가고 이미 참빛이 비치고 있기 때문입니다. 빛 속에 있다고 말하면서 자기 형제를 미워하는 사람은
아직도 어둠 속에 있는 자입니다. (1요한 2,8-9)
하느님은 세상을 너무나 사랑하신 나머지 외아들을 내주시어 (요한 3,16)
주님께 받은 것을 바치는 저희가 주님을 합당히 모시게 하소서.

기득권을 가진 자들이 자신의 것을 빼앗기지 않으려고 하는 세태는 비단 예수님 시대의 일만이 아닙니다. 현재도 마찬가지입니다. 그래도 모든 것은 하느님 뜻대로 이루어졌습니다. 그에 대한 희생이 예수님이셨습니다. 오늘날에도 많은 분들의 희생이 존재합니다. 정의를 위해 희생 당하는 분들을 잊지않고 기도하겠습니다. 하느님 뜻대로 이루어지게 기도합니다!
하느님의 빛으로 형제를 미워하지 않고 그를 위해 기도하겠습니다.
