In one of his sermons, Fr. Piotr Pawlukiewicz touched on a very real and difficult topic of responsibility for relationships and the consequences of our decisions. He told the story of a colleague from work who is getting married for the second time. There is a joyful atmosphere at work, everyone congratulates him, wishes him happiness and rejoices in his new beginning. However, not far away, just a street away, is his ex-wife with two children. There is a completely different mood there - tears, sadness, a sense of abandonment and injustice. Fr. Pawlukiewicz emphasized that this situation is like a lens showing the modern approach to relationships. He pointed out that we often see only one side of the coin - the one that someone presents to us. We celebrate new beginnings without thinking about what is happening in the background. Meanwhile, our choices, especially in relationships, have far-reaching effects that affect not only us, but also other people. This story was a warning against selfishness in relationships and a lack of responsibility for commitments made, especially towards children. Pawlukiewicz reminded us that true love is not only romantic ecstasies, but also everyday care, faithfulness and responsibility. Life is not about making things “easier” or “nicer”, but about being able to love the way God loves us – patiently, faithfully and with concern for others. This sermon was a profound reflection on the value of faithfulness and responsibility in family life and on the consequences of our choices for our loved ones. #PiotrPawlukiewicz #Love #Fidelity #Responsibility #Relationships #Family #Sermon #Reflection #LifeChoices #Inspiration
