Reilly Vigésimo Sexto Domingo en Tiempo Ordinario 29 de septiembre de 2019

“Tú, hombre de Dios, practica la justicia, la piedad, la fe, el amor, la constancia, la bondad. Pelea el buen combate de la fe, conquista la Vida eterna, a la que has sido llamado y en vista de la cual hiciste una magnífica profesión de fe, en presencia de numerosos testigos. Yo te ordeno que observes lo que está prescrito, manteniéndote sin mancha e irreprensible.”

Cada domingo, al ponernos de pie y profesar nuestra fe en el credo, renovamos nuestro compromiso, junto con todos los que veneran con nosotros. De esta forma no sólo recitamos lo que creemos, sino que nos asimos de nuevo al don de la vida eterna.

En muchas de sus cartas, San Pablo ofrece una letanía de virtudes a buscar, frutos que manifestar, y los elementos presentes en nuestra vida familiar cirstiana. Ya sea el himno de caridad en la carta enviada a los corintios, los frutos del espíritu a los gálatas, o los bloques de construcción a los colosenses, se nos dan las piedras de fundación para una vida cristiana sólida. La lista que se le ofrece a Timoteo hoy es para ser agregada a tantas otras.

Gracias, San Pablo, por tan maravillosos recordatorios.
