Today we celebrate the 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time. The regular days which we spend for any matters, some times more important some times not, are very special for our spiritual lives because they direct us to the heaven that’s mean to close relationship with God – to our salvation.
The Eucharist which we now celebrate is the time for the choosing the right way of our life. According to Jesus from today’s Gospel we have to choose the narrow – that’s mean the difficult way, not easy way, though the today’s world suggests us it. We have to choose and find our own way to salvation and every time double check that we are on that good way. We have to strive to enter this narrow gate to eternal life because it is open for us here and now.
