Their faith showed in their actions. They became models for other believers. The first reading tells us to put our faith into action. This passage is part of a long list of ordinances God commanded the Israelites to observe. God will judge us by how we treat our neighbors. God will hear the cries of any whom we neglect or mistreat and will come to their defense. In today’s Gospel the Pharisees put the question of God’s law to Jesus. “Which commandment of the law is the greatest?” (Matthew 22:36) How could he possibly choose from all the detailed commandments the Jews observed? He was sure to offend somebody by his answer! Of course, Jesus went right to the heart of the matter. Love is the greatest commandment—love of God and love of neighbor. Everything else is based on this. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Because it is individual and private, it has been difficult for the changes to take root. Sometimes a priest may be grounded in the earlier form, and at other times the penitent may resist the priest’s attempt to blend in the proper texts and rituals. Perhaps because the new form is almost identical in structure to the old, it has been difficult to insititute. It may also be true that with the liturgy in English now, it is far more clear that the Eucharist, too, is a “sacrament of reconciliation.” It is certainly true that there are different skills and gifts in ministry, and experienced penitents know that not all priests are equally at ease in this sacramental encounter. Sometimes a difficult experience can drive people away from a liturgy that is spiritually rich and rewarding. Yet we know that one bad meal seldom puts people off restaurants forever: the dinner gong tends to dispel bad memories, and so we try again. Individual confession and absolution is for us both treasure and tradition. If you haven’t been for a while, consider coming back to praise God for this gift of mercy. —Rev.

Su fe se reflejó en sus acciones. Se convirtieron en ejemplo para otros creyentes. La primera lectura nos dice que pongamos nuestra fe en acción. Este pasaje es parte de una larga lista de reglas que Dios impone a los israelitas para su observancia y para respetar su Ley. Dios nos juzgará por cómo nosotros tratamos a nuestros semejantes. Dios escuchará los llantos de todo aquel al que desatendemos o maltratamos, y vendrá en su defensa. En el Evangelio de hoy, los fariseos plantean la cuestión de la Ley de Dios. “¿Cuál es el mandamiento más importante de la Ley?” (Mateo 22:36). ¿Cómo es posible que él pueda elegir de entre todos los detallados mandamientos que los judíos observaban? ¡Sin duda que ofendería a alguien con su respuesta! Sin embargo, Jesús fue derecho al grano. El amor es el más grande de todos los mandamientos, el amor de Dios y el amor del prójimo. Todo lo demás se basa en esto. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

El amor de Dios y el amor al prójimo son dos hojas de una puerta que sólo pueden abrirse y cerrarse juntas. (Sören Kierkegaard) -El amor al prójimo es nuestra medida de nuestro amor de Dios. (Edith Estein) -Amar es desear a los demás todo lo bueno; y no por amor a nosotros mismos, sino por amor a los demás. (Aristóteles) -La santidad no consiste en saber mucho ni en mucho meditar; la santidad es un secreto: el secreto de mucho amar. (Santo Tomás de Aquino). -Lo que te quedas para ti, ya lo has perdido. Pero lo que das es tuyo para siempre. (Josef Recla) -El amor es la única prueba de que somos auténticos cristianos. (Johannes Leppich) -Cuanto más amemos y nos demos, tanto más valor y sentido tendrá nuestra vida. (Herman Hesse) -El amor nos enseña todas las virtudes. (Plutarco) -Señor, toma este corazón de piedra, y dame un corazón de hombre: un corazón que te ame, un corazón que se alegre en ti, que te imite y que te complazca. (San Ambrosio) -Dios nos ha dado un solo camino para la vida, y es el amor; un único camino para la felicidad, y es el amor; y un solo camino de perfección, y es también el amor. (Iginio Ugo Tarchetti) -Para conseguir la perfección, solo conozco un medio: el amor. (Santa Teresa de Lisieux) -La grandeza de un alma se mide por lo que ama. (San Bernardo) -El amor es el único tesoro que se multiplica al dividirlo. (Anónimo) -Cuando venga el día del juicio nos preguntarán no por lo que hemos leído, sino por lo que hemos hecho; no por lo que muy bien hemos hablado, sino por lo que religiosamente hemos vivido. (Tomás de Kempis) -El que no ama, no conoce a Dios, porque Dios es amor. (San Juan Evangelista) -A veces se dice "Dios castiga a los que ama". Pero no es verdad, porque para quienes Dios ama, las pruebas no son castigos, sino gracias. (Cura de Ars) Podemos estar ya ahora con Dios en el cielo; podemos ser felices con él en este preciso instante; si amamos como Él ama, si ayudamos como Él ayuda, si damos como Él da, si servimos como Él sirve. (Madre Teresa de Calcuta) -Donde se pronuncia una palabra de amor; donde se hace un acto de caridad, allí Cristo vuelve a resucitar. (Ferdinand Ebner) -Vamos hacia Dios, no caminando, sino amando. (San Agustín) Los frutos maduran con el sol; los hombres, gracias al amor. (Julius Langben) -¡Qué grande es el amor! Hace ligero todo lo pesado y soporta todo lo difícil; lleva el peso sin fatiga y todo lo amargo lo vuelve sabroso.

É assim: "Doença e crises são coisas maravilhosas para a maioria dos doentes, a maioria dos aflitos.” O que esta frase quer dizer? Está dizendo que os doentes, os aflitos, tem tempo de refletir sobre a vida. Eles vão fazer uma opção - OU para desesperar porque a sua vida não tem sido muito boa em relação ao Cristo, OU para confiar absolutamente em Jesus Cristo, naquele que conforta, que dá força, naquele que diz: "Se quiser ser meu discípulo, tome a sua cruz e siga-me." Se você está doente, não diga, nem pense que sua doença, seus incômodos façam que você seja inútil, que o tempo de doença é tempo perdido. Você está passando muito tempo sozinho, sozinha, sente solidão. Espero que você esteja descobrindo que esse tempo está sendo oferecido para você como tempo de purificação! As coisas mais bonitas, mais puras, mais inspiradoras que já ouvi na minha vida são palavras que pessoas doentes, pessoas aflitas me disseram. Descobriram a beleza da vida, a bondade de Cristo. Descobriram o tremendo valor positivo do sofrimento. Já encontrei com pessoas muito doentes que falaram assim: "Não se preocupe comigo. Estou na paz, porque se Cristo sofreu tanto por mim, eu tenho que sofrer um pouco também, o senhor não acha??" Eu ficava comovido nesses momentos, e saí da presença dessas pessoas mais perto de Deus, eu mesmo mais purificado. Para quem tem fé, doença, crises, problemas podem ser luzes. Quem andava na escuridão, de repente vê as coisas duma outra maneira, com outros olhos, na luz que realmente veio de Cristo. Jesus é a luz que ilumina muitas pessoas aflitas de muitas maneiras. Rezemos pelos doentes, por todos os aflitos. Que Cristo seja sua força, conforto, luz.
