Dibawakan oleh Rita dari Paroki Katedral, Keuskupan Agung Dili, Timor Leste. Wahyu 7: 2-4.9-14; Mazmur tg 24: 1-2.3-4ab.5-6; 1 Yohanes 3: 1-3; Matius 5: 1-12a MELIHAT KEADAAN KRISTUS YANG SEBENARNYA   Pada hari pertama bulan November ini, renungan kita bertema: Melihat Keadaan Kristus yang Sebenarnya. Hari ini seluruh Gereja merayakan hari raya semua orang kudus. Semua orang kudus berada di surga dan tak mungkin di tempat lain. Mereka adalah anggota Gereja yang mulia, sedangkan anggota Gereja yang berziarah ialah kita yang masih hidup di dunia, dan anggota yang sedang dalam pemurnian di api penyucian ialah para arwah saudara-saudari kita.     Anggota Gereja yang mulia pernah berada di dunia seperti kita. Karena telah menjalani kehidupan penuh rahmat dan bersemangat cinta kasih, setelah kematiannya mereka dikaruniai kehidupan abadi sebagai orang-orang kudus. Apakah yang mereka lakukan di dalam keabadian waktu mereka di surga? Ada banyak, namun kita dapat menyebutkan satu sesuai inspirasi bacaan-bacaan hari ini, ialah mereka melihat Kristus dalam keadaan-Nya yang sebenarnya.   Orang-orang kudus ini bukan para malaikat. Para malaikat itu adalah makhluk roh dan tidak punya nama (kecuali ketiga malaikat agung). Orang-orang kudus punya nama dan oleh Gereja, nama-nama itu dipakaikan pada nama setiap pengikut Kristus sebagai nama-nama baptis. Ada sebagian orang kudus ditetapkan Gereja melalui proses beatifikasi dan kanonisasi, yang maksudnya supaya mereka menjadi model sempurna bagi kita. Ada sebagian lain yang tidak melalui proses itu tetapi keteladanan mereka sangat penting bagi kita.   Panggilan dan jalan untuk menjadi orang-orang kudus terbuka bagi setiap orang yang percaya kepada Allah dan berusaha mencapainya. Kitab wahyu dalam bacaan pertama menggambarkan penglihatan akan sejumlah besar orang dari berbagai penjuru dunia berpakaian putih berada di sekitar takhta Allah maha tinggi. Kekudusan itu memang karunia untuk kita wujudkan. Untuk mewujudkannya, ketika masih berada di dunia hukum yang wajib dilakukan ialah butir-butir mutiara kebahagiaan yang disampaikan oleh Tuhan Yesus dalam Injil hari ini, yaitu Matius bab 5.   Kita terpanggil untuk menjadi kudus melalui semangat hidup berbahagia karena miskin di hadapan Allah, berdukacita, lemah lembut, lapar dan haus akan kebenaran, murah hati, suci hati, membawa damai, dianiaya demi kebenaran, dan demi Yesus Kristus sendiri. Tak ada paksaan untuk mengikuti semua ini, tetapi begitu seseorang yang telah memilih untuk hidup dalam semangat itu, semua itu sudah menjadi tuntutan untuk dijalankan.   Hasil yang didapatkan memang sudah dapat dirasakan ketika masih di dunia, tetap kenikmatan yang sempurna ialah di surga, yaitu ketika kita melihat Kristus dalam keadaan-Nya yang sebenarnya.   Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Yesus Kristus, terangilah aku dalam jalan menuju kesempurnaan dan semoga para kudus yang mulia mendoakan aku untuk dengan gembira melewati jalan itu sambil senantiasa memuji-Mu di tempat yang maha tinggi. Bapa kami yang ada di Surga ... Dalam nama Bapa...  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/media-la-porta/message

On today's Zero Limits Podcast  I am joined in the studio Kyle Wilson former Australian Army infantry soldier from the 2nd Battalion Royal Australian Regiment.Kyle served roughly 5 years within the army serving at 2RAR joining the army through the "Gap Year" program. Upon completion of the gap year he then enlisted as a fulltime soldier remaining posted at 2RAR. During his service he ran into to some trouble during an incident which had him serve time at the Defence Force Correctional Establishment at Holsworthy which almost destroyed his career.Kyle deployed to both to Timor Leste and Afghanistan on the Mentoring Task Force 3 rotation.During his deployment to Afghanistan he was awarded the Commendation for Gallantry with his citation reading -For acts of gallantry in action on 7 September 2011 while deployed on Operation Slipper as a member of Mentoring Task Force 3 in Afghanistan. While attempting to apprehend a withdrawing insurgent commander Private Wilson and a fellow soldier came under intense plunging fire from an insurgent force numbering three to five on their southern flank as well as fire from their quarry. Despite facing extreme personal danger Private Wilson and the other soldier advanced over 100 metres with no cover, concealment or friendly suppressive fire to close with and neutralise the insurgent commander. Their actions also drew fire away from the remainder of their section enabling them to reposition and engage more fully in the battle.Website - www.zerolimitspodcast.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/zero.limits.podcast/?hl=en

Hearts on Fire Feet on the Move–Mark Raue–Mission Sunday (Mark Raue introduces the 2023 Catholic Mission appeal by explaining who Catholic Mission are and the role of their annual appeal. This year the appeal theme is “hearts on fire, feet on the move.” And it has a particular focus on Timor-Leste.

Delivered by Father Joao Gaspar, SDB from Salesian Post Novitiate Community Dili in Archdiocese of Dili, Timor Leste. Acts of the Apostles 1: 12-14; Rs psalm Luk 1: 46-47.48-49.50-51.52-53.54-55; Luke 1: 26-38 SUCCESS PLUS   Our meditation today has the theme: Success Plus. Today we as members of the Catholic Church commemorate the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Lady of the Rosary. Devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary is so popular worldwide and always prayed by the Catholic faithful has been through a                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                long journey of the Church in maintaining faith and fighting enemies that intend to destroy her. Very popular, fitting for all the time and place, used for all the needs and liked by many, the Rosary marks a success of the Church in making her members a devotional people.   The devotional people means they have love, joy and closeness with certain subjects that they respect and honour. Catholics do this to the Virgin Mary. There are so many testimonies among us that confirm the role and help of the Virgin Mary for the success, benefits and safety they experience. Virgin Mary is the most appropriate example to describe a success plus of life, that God's gift had made her carry out her duties perfectly, so the ticket was already final to be in heaven.   The apostles were in the path of excellence and success of the Virgin Mary. They achieved success, namely they returned happily after carrying out the mission of the Master, Jesus Christ. They did the work of Jesus Christ himself. There were people enlightened in their understanding of faith, some were healed, some were comforted and some others were freed from the power of evil spirits. It all made them happy. It is all a success. The ‘plus' factor is that their names are recorded in heaven. Their tickets are also final to get there.   Following these examples, each of us actually aspires that success plus is also part of our faith. We naturally want and continue eager to have success in our efforts and work. The outcomes of actions and works explain themselves what we want and aspire, although often they are not adequate and up to expectation. There are times when the results are negative or even nothing, but they will not eliminate our original intention to achieve good results.   As followers of Christ, we really want our names to be recorded in heaven, which means the ticket to get there is final. In our business, work and service every day, it is not enough to collect and hoard the results that carve success. We need to put a plus to every success, which is because of God's glory. With that our names are recorded in heaven. We will welcome the right moment to get there.   Let's pray. In the name of the Father ... Heavenly Father, our hearts are filled with joy with the gift of life in heaven prepared for us. We hope we remain faithful to the path of Jesus Christ that we follow right now. Hail Mary full of grace ... in the name of the Father ... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/media-la-porta/message

Delivered by Father Joao Gaspar, SDB from Salesian Post Novitiate Community in Dili, Archdiocese of Dili, Timor Leste. Nehemiah 8: 1-4a.5-6.7b-12; Rs psalm 19: 8-11; Luke 10: 1-12 AS WORKERS AND AS HARVEST   Our meditation today has the theme: As Workers and As Harvest. There is a lot of feedback or responses from listeners of daily spiritual broadcasts on La Porta media. There are two examples mentioned here. A 4 year old girl can properly memorize the Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be at the end of the meditation. An elderly lady regularly listens and she believes in the teaching about admonishing others through four eyes, many eyes, and the eyes of one Local Church. If this doesn't work, just leave it to God. She has practiced this directly in an incident with her neighbour, and the results made her peaceful and satisfied.   This experience story reflects the reality of labor and harvest. Every day preachers share God's Word with many people, where they as workers and listeners are the harvest. The 4 year old girl is a happy harvest. The elderly mother is also a harvester, and she is also a worker so she produces more harvests related to cultivating her relationships with neighbors. In many ways and on many occasions, followers of Christ are workers. We work in several stages, starting with hearing or reading the word as the priest Esra and the Jewish people did in the first reading.   The first job is not enough to make us steady as followers of Christ. The next stage is understanding, contemplating and internalizing the words that have been read or heard. In reaching this stage, we should be happy and fortunate with this spiritual progress. Curiosity, anxiety and the search for the meaning of God's word and the truth of faith always make us restless and peaceful. We become calm and joyful when we understand and are confident about the Word that is preached. Like it or not, we have to admit that our empty or weak souls must be filled with God's words and commands. Understanding and believing is what makes our souls full.   Up to this stage, the work of hearing and understanding actually confirms that we are a harvest or harvest that shows how delicious the experience of hearing and understanding is. Love, obedience, respect and devotion to hear, then joy, consolation, strength and gratitude because of understanding and belief are truly the results we have. The harvest will increase when many other people around us feel and experience how beautiful and useful life is illuminated by God's word thanks to the behavior and way of life we live. In fact, we are grateful every day by being both workers and harvesters in God's vineyard.   Let's pray. In the name of the Father... May Your words which come from the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ grow in our hearts today and can produce fruit that is useful for our lives and those of our neighbors. Hail Mary full of grace... In the name of the Father... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/media-la-porta/message

Dibawakan oleh Suster Dominatrix PRR dan Sinta dari Asrama PRR, dari Komunitas Suster PRR Kuluhun di Keuskupan Agung Dili, Timor Leste. Nehemia 2: 1-8; Mazmur tg 137: 1-2.3.4-5; Lukas 9: 57-62 BANGUN KEMBALI GEREJAKU   Renungan kita pada hari ini bertema: Bangun Kembali Gereja-Ku. Ada seorang pastor bercerita tentang satu pengalamannya sewaktu remaja. Ia ikut berperan dalam bermain drama favoritnya yaitu kehidupan Santo Fransiskus Asisi. Adegan yang sangat berkesan baginya ialah saat Fransiskus muda dari keluarga kaya raya sedang berdoa di dalam sebuah gereja tua yang hampir runtuh, ia mendengar perintah Tuhan Yesus yang ada di salib: Bangun kembali Gereja-Ku”. Dari situ mulai petualangan baru dalam hidupnya, berubah 380 derajat dengan hidup bertapa, miskin dan menjadi biarawan. Remaja itu kemudian memantapkan cita-citanya untuk menjadi seorang imam Katolik.   Panggilan ini juga telah dilakukan tokoh bangsa Israel zaman dahulu, Nehemiah. Ia dipanggil Allah, lalu meminta ijin raja di pengasingan Babilonia supaya pergi ke Yerusalem yang sedang runtuh, untuk membangunnya kembali. Restorasi Yerusalem ini sebenarnya bukan sekedar bangunan fisik dan georgrafis, tetapi lebih dari itu ialah suatu orientasi baru dan pemulihan tatanan hidup yang telah lama hilang. Hubungan baru dengan Tuhan Allah dipulihkan kembali. Fransiskus juga menginisiatifkan suatu pemulihan hidup rohani dalam Gereja Katolik untuk lebih fokus kepada kasih Allah, sesama dan lingkungan sekitarnya.   Membangun kembali Gereja dapat kita maknai sebagai mengatur dan menata lebih mantap lagi hubungan dengan Tuhan, yang pasti terjadi dalam sebuah lokus atau tempat, yaitu rumah-Nya. Di mana Tuhan berada, di situ terjalin relasi karena Tuhan tidak bisa ada tanpa relasi. Relasi kita dengan Tuhan selalu menyangkut panggilan, pekerjaan dan tujuan hidup kita. Tapi hubungan dengan Tuhan atau beradanya kita di dalam Tuhan tidak selamanya dalam kondisi yang baik. Kalau mau jujur, mungkin kita pernah mengalami situasi hampir runtuh atau berantakan seperti yang ditemui Fransiskus Asisi itu.   Bangun kembali diri kita sendiri, yang mungkin selama ini mengalami kerusakan sebagiannya. Diri kita sendiri jiwa dan raga pernah mengalami gangguan, yang berakibat rumah Allah ini tidak nyaman untuk didiami baik oleh diri sendiri maupun oleh Tuhan. Hubungan tak bisa terjalin baik jika keadaan rumah ini terganggu. Bangun kembali relasi dengan orang-orang terdekat juga sangat perlu karena relasi ini pernah rusak. Bagaimana Tuhan bisa ikut bergabung jika hubungan di antara orang-orang terdekat sedang rusak atau sudah putus?    Bangun kembali keluarga yang mungkin keadaannya sekarang sedang dalam krisis kepercayaan, ketulusan, cinta dan kekeluargaan. Sepertinya Tuhan akan sulit menemukan tempatnya di sini jika krisisnya tak kunjung selesai. Dengan membangun kembali pribadi, antar sesama dan di dalam keluarga, hidup bersama kita dalam lingkungan yang lebih besar bakal baik pula.   Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Bapa penuh kasih, berikanlah kami hati sebagai anak-anak yang berkenan kepada-Mu. Semoga Santo Fransiskus Asisi mendoakan kami selalu dan menunjukkan kami bagaimana mencintai Gereja ini sesungguhnya. Kemuliaan kepada Bapa ... Dalam nama Bapa ... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/media-la-porta/message

Dibawakan oleh Suster Maria Antonilde PRR dan Suster Maria Sesilinda PRR dari Komunitas Suster PRR Aimutin di Keuskupan Agung Dili, Timor Leste. Zakaria 8: 20-23; Mazmur tg 87: 1-3.4-5.6-7; Lukas 9: 51-56 JALAN TOL KE YERUSALEM   Tema renungan kita pada hari ini ialah: Jalan Tol Ke Yerusalem. Kalimat tema ini merupakan sebuah simbol atau analogi. Kota Yerusalem di dalam kitab suci merupakan kiblat orang-orang beriman, karena dipercayai sebagai pusat penyembahan mereka kepada Allah. Di sana mereka bertemu Tuhan Allah raja semesta alam. Jalan tol menuju ke sana merupakan simbol perjalanan tanpa halangan untuk berjumpa dengan Allah.   Bagi siapa saja yang ingin mengalami kehadiran Tuhan sebagai pribadi yang berada di rumah-Nya yang suci, menuju ke sana dengan tanpa halangan merupakan keinginan yang ideal. Untuk menemukan jalan tol ke Yerusalem ini, hal yang kentara untuk diketahui ialah memastikan dan mengindikasi halangan-halangan itu, lalu menyingkirkan atau menghindarinya.   Paling kurang ada dua macam halangan menurut bacaan-bacaan hari ini. Yang pertama ialah keraguan atau pesimisme tentang apakah Tuhan itu murah hati dan penuh keterbukaan untuk mengenali dan menyambut setiap orang! Ini yang dinyatakan dalam bacaan pertama dari kitab nabi Zakaria. Yang kedua ialah manusia bisa saja nekat tidak membuka diri untuk menerima undangan Tuhan, bahkan diajak untuk bersama-sama ke Yerusalem, ke rumah-Nya yang penuh kemuliaan. Ini yang diuraikan dalam Injil Lukas tentang orang-orang Samaria yang menolak Yesus dan Yerusalem.   Sebagian orang-orang beriman memiliki pesimisme dalam hidup rohaninya, bukan karena melihat dirinya sendiri yang berkekurangan, tetapi meragukan kalau Tuhan dapat menyambut mereka. Mereka berpikir dan berusaha kalau Tuhan harus dilunakkan hati-Nya. Jika hati-Nya tidak lembut Dia bakal hanya pilih-pilih kasih dan tidak memandang baik mereka-mereka yang pendosa, jauh dan yang belum mengenal-Nya. Padahal Tuhan itu baik adanya, panjang sabar dan besar kasih setia-Nya. Ia akan selalu menerima siapa saja yang mencari-Nya lalu menemukan-Nya. Setiap orang pada akhirnya punya waktu dan tempat yang pas akan bertemu dan mengalami keberadaan Tuhan itu.   Bagi sebagian yang lain, justru Tuhan yang memanggil, mengundang, dan mengajak melalui aneka cara supaya beranjak masuk ke tempat Tuhan berdiam. Bahkan Tuhan sendiri yang menemani masuk ke rumah-Nya, sekalipun rumah itu adalah hati manusia sendiri. Tetapi inisiatif Tuhan ini ditolak dan dijauhi mereka. Rupanya mereka sudah punya pegangan dan keyakinan sendiri, yaitu prinsip dan kekuatan lain selain Tuhan yang esa dan kuasa. Jadi ajakan dan undangan itu bakal diarahkan ke orang lain yang lebih berhasrat dan terbuka kepada Tuhan. Tantangan kita saat ini ialah perlu menghindari dua rintangan ini, sehingga bagi kita ialah hanya ada jalan tol untuk sampai ke rumah Tuhan.   Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Allah Bapa di surga, di dalam tangan-Mu kami menemukan petunjuk bagaimana berdiam dalam rumah-Mu yang kudus. Semoga kami selalu gembira, nyaman dan betah berada di dalamnya. Salam Maria... Dalam nama Bapa... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/media-la-porta/message
