THUNDERBOLTS AND LIGHTNING

One of the most difficult duties of a disciple is to follow the command of Jesus to spread the gospel to all nations. (Lk 24:47, Mk 116:15, Mt 28:19) I think one reason may be that we don’t feel we have the authority to tell someone else what to believe. Most of us don’t think we know the gospel well enough to preach it. Or we are so afraid of offending atheists, that we use that fear as an excuse to say nothing. But being a disciple means following Jesus. The gospel this Sunday mentions twice that Jesus taught with more authority than any of religious leaders of Israel. So how can we get such authority?

First, Jesus didn’t get his authority from winning a Messiah election. And he didn’t threaten people with thunderbolts and lightning. He certainly didn’t impress people by saying what they wanted to hear. He spoke the truth that he heard from his Father. His two main actions in his ministry were curing and forgiving people. Since the Jews thought sickness was a punishment for sins, by curing the sick and forgiving sins, Jesus showed that God loves even sinners. And those actions showed that Jesus got authority from his Father.

“But you still haven’t answered the question: How do we get that authority?” We get it from the Holy Spirit, in Baptism and Confirmation. And like an athlete, who may be born with strength and abilities, yet has to work-out and practice to be any good, we still need to grow in that authority. One way is to read the scriptures and pray with them, so that we get to know God through his Word and begin to listen to him in our prayers. We can consciously decide to see God in other people, not just those we love, but everyone, even the ones who annoy us. (And especially the ones who challenge us to be more loving, patient and forgiving.) Most parishes have programs that encourage sharing your faith, such as RCIA, Christ Renews his Parish, etc. And of course, the Eucharist and other sacra-ments strengthen God’s life in us. You’ll know you have that authority when you can talk about your faith with confidence instead of hesitation, because you will be speaking from experience, not second hand knowledge. —Tom Schmidt, Copyright © J.

CUARTO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO:

28 DE ENERO DEL 2018

DIOS ES DIOS Dios no domina la autoridad divina sobre nosotros, aunque Dios es el Señor del cielo y la tierra. Dios quiere lo que es mejor para la humanidad y para toda la creación. Dios desea que vivamos para Dios y para el prójimo. Jesús nos enseña “como aquel que tiene autoridad y no como los escribas”, porque Jesús es la fuente de cualquier autoridad que los escriban tuvieran, ya sea que cumplieran bien o no. Aquellas personas que escuchan a Jesús hablar estaban en la presencia de la verdadera verdad del amor de Dios. No hay autoridad más grande que esta. Hay más, sin embargo. Se nos da libre albedrío y podemos elegir vivir como Dios desea o alejarnos del camino de la santidad. Los israelitas a quienes Moisés había hablado, fallaron en cumplir las leyes de amor de Dios en el pasado y reconocieron su necesidad de que alguien les hablara las palabras del Señor. Sencillamente, ellos entendieron que Dios es Dios, y que ellos no eran Dios. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

NOSOTROS NO SOMOS DIOS Nosotros no somos Dios. En nuestros corazones lo sabemos. Y sin embargo, ¿cuántas veces actuamos como si pensáramos que lo somos? Podríamos ir a Dios en momentos de debilidad, dificultad, tribulación y pedir a Dios su ayuda, pero muchas de las veces nos vamos por nuestro propio camino. Nos aferramos a una falsa sensación de control, en lugar de encontrar la libertad en la dependencia de Dios. La historia de la Salvación, como está registrada en las Sagradas Escrituras, nos muestran que ha habido esta tendencia en la humanidad durante siglos intentando ser Dios, en lugar de ser como Dios. Ese pensamiento no funciona bien al final. ¡No somos Dios! Jesús vino a expresar el profundo amor de Dios. La autoridad con la que habló y enseñó, sanó y expresó perdón, es la autoridad de uno que en-tiende que el amor es la respuesta. Cristo nos muestra la verdadera transformación que es posible cuando damos a Dios la autoridad “Que se haga tu voluntad, así en la tierra como en el cielo”. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

I am hoping you all had a great week. Last week the Knights of Columbus Council 6322 had the honor of hosting a chapter meeting. These meetings bring other brother Knights from northern California and their respective District Deputy. I am very proud of the brothers of this council who helped put on this event. They made our council show the quality of men and showed other brothers and their wives how beautiful our parish is. I personally want to thank you men, and you know who you are, for all your efforts. This is why I am proud to be amongst this brotherhood.

Thank you and God bless,

Jose Garcia, Grand Knight
