From the Desk of Father Jonathan
The last few weeks, both domestically and around the world, have been marked with violence, terrorism, and hatred. From the devastating terrorist attack on the streets of Nice, France, to the eight police officers gunned down in Dallas and Baton Rouge, Louisiana......we are seeing things we have never seen before. You will hear many politicians and even religious leaders call these actions "senseless". I think they are trying to say that there can be no justification for such actions. But I don't think the word "senseless" is an acceptable description. "Senseless" suggests that we can't understand why anyone would do this. But if we use our God-given gift of reason, and if we look to our faith, we can understand why and how someone would do these things. The human heart was made for LOVE. But if we allow ourselves to be taken over by sin, if we allow our minds to be manipulated by false ideology, our very hearts that were made for LOVE, can become a den of HATRED. This hatred comes in different forms. Recently, we see it in the form of radical Islamic ideology, racism, and anti-police violence. You and I can't change everything in this world, but we can work to make our hearts love more and we can teach our young people to do the same. This week I went to our local NYPD police precinct to thank them for working for our safety. And I prayed with them. Of course, as humans, they too can make mistakes, but we need to support them as they seek to maintain the rule of law. The very fabric of our free society depends on it. Let us pray for our nation and neighborhood, and let's do our part to create a civilization of LOVE.
God bless,
Father Jonathan

REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD Sunday Gospel: Luke 11, 1-13
The Lord’s Prayer. Let’s stop and think about it. Jesus’ disciples were required by Jewish law to say the prayer “Hear O Israel” (Deuteronomy 6:4–5) every day of their lives, yet they say “Teach us to pray.” He responds “When you pray say ‘Father’ . . .” Shocking! Jesus uses a child’s version of “Father” (“Abba” means “Daddy”). No believing Jew says God’s name, only “Lord” or “The Blessed One.” “Abba” is not above us, but holds us close to his heart. We can trust that Abba will hear us. We honor God, pray for the Kingdom among us, ask for food to nourish body and soul, and the power to forgive as God forgives us. Finally, we pray that God not lead us into temptation, that is, not put us to the test, for we do not want to disappoint our Abba who loves us.
This prayer helps us to strip away all the complications of talking to God and know that God always listens.
RIFLESSIONE SULLA PAROLA DI DIO Vangelo della Domenica: Luca 11, 1-13
Grazie alle letture bibliche, oggi la Chiesa ci insegna quello che significa la preghiera e come bisogna pregare. Il racconto dell’intercessione di Abramo in favore delle città depravate di Sodoma e Gomorra (Gen 18,20-32: 1a lettura) dimostra che i castighi di Dio non sono la conseguenza di una predestinazione irrevocabile. L’intercessione degli uomini che conoscono l’amore di Dio è capace di risvegliare la sua misericordia. San Luca ci riporta una serie di insegnamenti di Gesù su come bisogna pregare. Gesù invita innanzitutto a pregare, per qualsiasi richiesta, con fiducia, ed assicura ad ognuno che tutte le preghiere sincere saranno esaudite: “Chiunque chiede ottiene; chi cerca trova e sarà aperto a chi bussa”. Poi Gesù dice che un padre terreno dà solo buone cose ai suoi figli e non vuole ingannarli. Come potrebbe Dio, il migliore dei padri, mandarci qualcosa di cattivo quando noi suoi figli gli chiediamo il suo aiuto? La parabola dell’uomo che sollecita il suo amico è basata sulla regola del rilancio: se un amico terreno non è capace di mandare via colui che è venuto per pregarlo, anche se chiede il suo aiuto nelle peggiori circostanze, a maggior ragione Dio - che è il nostro migliore amico - esaudirà le nostre preghiere! Tanto più che noi per lui non siamo mai importuni. Tutto questo trova la sua espressione più convincente nella preghiera che il Signore insegna ai suoi discepoli. Se abbiamo fatto nostra la preoccupazione di Dio: cioè che il suo nome sia conosciuto e riconosciuto e che il suo regno venga nel mondo, egli stesso farà sue le nostre preoccupazioni. La preghiera del Signore è il riassunto di tutto il Vangelo. Ed è per questo che è il fondamento e il cuore di tutta la preghiera umana.

REFLEXIONEMOS LA PALABRA DE DIOS Evangelio del Domingo: Lucas 11, 1-13
El Padrenuestro. Detengámonos a pensar en esta oración. Los discípulos de Jesús estaban obligados por la ley judía a decir la oración “Escucha, Israel” (Deuteronomio 6:4–5) diariamente, y sin embargo le dicen a su Maestro: “Enséñanos a orar”. Jesús les responde: “Cuando oren, digan ‘Padre’. . .” ¡Asombroso! Jesús usa una versión cariñosa y de niño (“Abba” que quiere decir “Papá”). Ningún creyente judío pronuncia el nombre de Dios, sólo “Señor” o “el Santo y Bendito”. “Abba” no está distante de nosotros, sino que nos lleva cerca de su corazón. Podemos confiar en que Abba nos escuchará. Honramos a Dios, oramos por la venida del reino entre nosotros, pedimos el alimento de cada día para el cuerpo y para el alma, la fortaleza para poder perdonar como Dios perdona. Finalmente pedimos poder resistir las tentaciones, pues, como hijos e hijas no queremos desilusionar al Dios que nos ama.
La oración del Padrenuestro nos ayuda a despojarnos de todo lo que complique nuestra conversación con Dios y a reconocer que Dios siempre escucha.
Viviendo la Palabra de Dios
¿Es tu oración demasiado formal? ¿Tienes dificultad de ver a Dios como Padre? Trata de hablar con “Abba” como tu amigo más íntimo.
