As sovereign, Jesus has the right, the authority, and the responsibility to judge us; and, that judgment is real. Honestly, none of us are comfortable with being judged because we are unable to absolutely know what will be the result of that judgment; on the other hand, we are not to fear judgment because our trust is in the Lord for we are the body of Christ doing his work. Are you doing His work? It is the work of Christ which the evangelist Mathew is focused on this Sunday, since Jesus’ judgment has roots in the work chosen for the least deserving. When you stand before Christ would you be able to say yes I fed the hungry, gave drink to the thirsty, I clothed the naked, and visited the imprisoned. Often we look at these categories and understand them in limited application, but rather it is an attitude of giving to others in need which is being demanded. That is what Jesus did by giving himself over to the cross because we were in need of redemption and life. What are the needs around us today? There are definitely those who are in need of physical food and thirst for hydration; but, how many people in your family and this community who hunger for the true nourishment of the Eucharist and thirst for the mercy of penance? There are those who are in need of clothing in San Diego; but, how many people are stripped of their dignity and lives due to a promiscuous society entrusting contraception rather than moral discipline. The truly naked in our nation are the babies living in the womb who have no legal right to even live. They were put into that position because pleasure has become the highest goal regardless of responsibility and consequence. There are many men and woman imprisoned who need love shown to them. How can a criminal, an enemy, change if they do not know the love of God? Our visitation and dedicated to prayer for their conversion needs to be unending. There are many other needs not listed. Jesus is the physical manifestation of God in the world connecting us to the divine. We are in the Church, the body of Christ. How do you continue to manifest Christ in the world in a concrete real way? St. Rose of Lima Church bienvenidos a St. Rose La Solemnidad de Jesucristo Rey Un mensaje importante y consistente que se nos ha comunicado en domingos recientes se vuelve más claro en este día de la Solemnidad de Jesucristo, Rey del Universo. Como soberano, Jesús tiene el derecho, la autoridad, y la responsabilidad de juzgarnos, y ese juicio es verdadero. Si lo vemos honestamente, a ninguno nos gusta la idea de ser juzgados porque no es posible que sepamos con certeza absoluta el resultado de ese juicio. Pero por otra parte, no debemos temerle al juicio porque nuestra fe está en el Señor y porque somos el cuerpo de Cristo haciendo su labor. ¿Estás haciendo la labor de Cristo? Mateo el Evangelista se enfoca en la obra de Cristo este domingo, ya que el juicio de Jesús tiene sus raíces en las obras dirigidas a los que menos lo merecen. Cuando te pares frente a Cristo, ¿podrás decir, “sí, di de comer al hambriento y de beber al sediento, vestí al desnudo y fui a ver al encarcelado”? Muchas veces vemos estas categorías y las comprendemos de una manera limitada, pero exigen una actitud de dar a los que tienen necesidad. Eso fue lo que hizo Jesús cuando se entrego a sí mismo a la cruz porque nosotros teníamos necesidad de redención y vida. ¿Cuáles son las necesidades que nos rodean hoy en día? Definitivamente hay gente que tiene necesidad de verdadera comida y que necesitan beber algo para hidratarse, pero, ¿cuántas personas hay en sus familias y en esta comunidad que están hambrientos por el verdadero alimento de la Eucaristía y sedientos por la misericordia de la penitencia? Hay personas en San Diego que necesitan ropa para vestirse, pero, ¿cuántas personas son despojadas de su dignidad y vida debido a la sociedad promiscua que cree en la anticoncepción en lugar de en la disciplina moral? Los que realmente van desnudos en nuestro país son los bebés dentro del seno que ni siquiera tienen el derecho legal de vivir. Están en ese predicamento porque el placer se ha convertido en el objetivo principal sin importar la responsabilidad ni las consecuencias. Hay muchos hombres y mujeres encarcelados que necesitan que se les muestre amor. ¿Cómo puede cambiar un criminal, un enemigo, si no conoce el amor de Dios? No podemos dejar de visitarlos ni de dedicarnos a rezar para su conversión. Hay muchas necesidades más que no he mencionado. Jesús es la manifestación física de Dios en este mundo que nos conecta con lo divino. Nosotros somos la iglesia, el cuerpo de Cristo. ¿Cómo estas continuando tú esta manifestación de Cristo en el mundo de una manera concreta y real? St. Rose of Lima Church As members of Christ’s Body, the Church, we have a share in His prophetic, priestly & kingly mission. “Sharing in His prophetic mission, we come to know Christ and make Him known.
