Today we celebrate the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time. In our Gospel reading we have the next several, very short parables about the Kingdom of God.
The believers – the people who seek the Kingdom of heaven, who want to achieve the supreme good /must be like lottery players, or like gamblers. They have to put all of the money on one card – like the person who bought the field with the treasure or the merchant searching for fine pearls.
We are these kinds of people, when our own lives have only one direction: the Kingdom of God – that’s mean the close relationship with Jesus Christ.
Every Eucharist is to put our relationship with Christ in fact. By the Holy Mass we glorify God and from Him we get the happiness for our lives.
