4 Nedela posle Veligden koja se narekuva i Nedela na Raslabeniot. Od evangelieto za denes slusnavme za Raslabeniot koj 38 godini boleduval, i nemalo koj da go spusti vo banjata Vitezda koga se razvizuvala vodata. Angel Gospodov ja razdvizuval vodata i koj prv ke vlezel po razvizuvanjeto ozdravuval. Gospod Isus Hristis go sretnal ovoj Raslaben i go orasal dali saka da ozdravi. Raslabeniot odgovoril, Sakam ama nemam co ek da me spisti vo banjata! Nemam covek, nemam Blizen nemam nikoj koj saka da mi pomogne! Ova e tragedijata koja ni se slucuva i nam vo ova moderno vreme. Osamenosta i nemanjeto nikoj koj ni e blizen i koj bi ni pomognal no i nie bi mu pomognale e tragedijata na ovoj paradoks. Hristos znaejki ja makata na sekoj covek no i imajki golemo milosrdie go izcelil ovoj covek, i podocna mu poracal da odi i da negreshi za da ne go snajde neshto polosho. Da se trudime i nie da ziveeme spored voljata Bozja, i da go proslavuvame Boga vo site dela. Da go gledame Boga vo sekoj nas blizen i da se trudime da gi sakame i da im pomagame na site luge okolu nas. Pomosta od drugite nikogash ne znaeme koga ke ni e potrebna, pa taka ne shtedime i da pomagame bezrezervno na drugite. Hristos Voskresna

 

The fourth week following Easter is devoted to commemorating Christ’s healing of the paralytic. This individual was cured by Christ while awaiting an opportunity to be lowered into the pool of water. Christ initially inquired if the man desired to be healed. The man responded, “Yes, I do wish to be, but I have no one to assist me and lower me into the pool once the water is stirred.” Periodically, an angel of God would disturb the water, and the first person to enter it would be healed. This man, unfortunately, lacked anyone to help him. This unfortunate circumstance resonates with challenges present in our contemporary society. Loneliness represents a significant hardship we encounter today. When we experience difficulties while living in isolation, we often feel as though we have no one to turn to for assistance. In such instances, much like in this narrative, God intervenes and offers aid, just as He did for the paralytic man. He also instructs us to refrain from further sin, to strive for a genuine Christian life, and to extend love and help to others, for we never know when we might require their support. Let us strive to lead a virtuous Christian life, endeavoring to perceive and acknowledge the divine presence in every individual and in every aspect of creation, and to offer our heartfelt praise to God. Christ is Risen.
