Desires of Youth

February 28, 2017 By Παύλος Παύλου

A young man approaches Christ and asks him what he can do to inherit eternal life. He is wealthy, has inherited many estates, is pious and approaches Christ on his knees, but has not realized that not everything is inherited.

He may have inherited real estate and securities, may have inherited family virtues, he may regularly go to his Synagogue, but he knows that something is missing and this something is not the Mosaic Law that he knows well and has always abided by.

He knows that what he’s missing is not among what he has already inherited or has already conquered.

He senses that the secret is held by Christ alone and is rushing to seek answers to his questions. But the Master’s response is far from his legacy. He asks him to leave the property to the poor and to follow Christ, not barefoot, but baring his cross. And the young man leaves frustrated because every thought involving loss of property and social appreciation is beyond his powers.

Suddenly, the supplies that he inherited from his parents, the ossessions and virtues, are no longer a necessity, but have become an obstacle in the way that Christ suggests to him in order to discover what his soul seeks.

*Επειδή ο Χριστός είπε ότι, αν ακούτε αλλά δεν πράττετε όσα εγώ σας διδάσκω, τότε μάταια είναι η πίστη σας, για τον λόγο αυτό η ΕΛΠΙΔΑ προσφέρει καθημερινά μια επαφή με την διδασκαλία αλλά και την πρακτική εφαρμογή αυτής της διδασκαλίας στην καθημερινή μας ζωή, ώστε τα λόγια του Χριστού να γίνουν κτήμα και πράξη σε κάθε εκδήλωση της καθημερινότητάς μας και όχι μόνον στα εκκλησιαστικά μας καθήκοντα. Η ΕΛΠΙΔΑ έχει στόχο να βοηθήσει όποιον αναζητεί λύσεις στα καθημερινά του προβλήματα, χωρίς όμως να αρνηθεί την πίστη και την θρησκευτική του παράδοση.
