Tercer Domingo de Cuaresma

En el tercer domingo de cuaresma, nos reunimos para celebrar esta Santa Misa que nos sigue preparando para la gran Fiesta de la Pascua.

Después de la Alianza con Noé y con Moisés, que escuchábamos en los domingos anteriores, hoy llegamos a la que se considera la más importante del AT: la Alianza que hizo Yahvé con su pueblo, por la mediación de Moisés, en el monte Sinaí, a la salida de Egipto. A esta se la llama "Antigua Alianza", o bien "la primera Alianza".

La primera lectura y el evangelio de hoy nos sitúan ante dos pilares fundamentales para el judaísmo: la ley dada por Dios a Moisés y el templo, lugar sagrado donde se ofrecían los sacrificios cultuales.

Entre las alianzas que Dios estableció con el pueblo de Israel, escuchemos hoy la más importante del AT: la Alianza que hizo Yahvé con su pueblo, por la mediación de Moisés, en el monte Sinaí, a la salida de Egipto. (É xodo 20, 1-17)

El salmista está convencido de que en los mandamientos está la clave de la verdadera armonía interior y exterior. Convencidos también nosotros, contestaremos: (Salmo 18)

Pablo aborda en su carta a los cristianos de Corinto, en Grecia, el tema de la "sabidurí a" verdadera. Hoy nos viene ese mensaje tambie n a nosotros. (1 Corintios 1, 22-25)

Durante tres domingos leeremos el evangelio de Juan, con tres sí mbolos expresivos de la muerte pascual de Cristo: el Templo, la serpiente y el grano de trigo. (Juan 2, 13-25)

Oración

San Miguel Arcángel, defiéndenos en la batalla.

Sé nuestro amparo contra la perversidad y asechanzas del

demonio. Reprímale Dios, pedimos suplicantes,

y tú Príncipe de la Milicia Celestial, arroja al infierno con el divino poder

a Satanás y a los otros espíritus malignos que andan dispersos por el mundo

para la perdición de las almas. Amén."

Oración a Jesús Crucificado

Mírame, oh mi amado y buen Jesús, postrado a los pies de tu divina presencia. Te ruego y suplico con gran fervor de mi

alma, te dignes grabar en mi corazón sentimientos vivísimos de fe, esperanza y caridad, arrepentimiento sincero de mis pecados y propósito firme de nunca más

ofenderte.

Mientras yo, con todo el amor y dolor de que soy capaz, considero y medito tus cinco llagas, teniendo en cuenta aquello que dijo

de ti, oh mi Dios, el santo profeta David: “Han taladrado mis manos y mis pies, y se pueden contar todos mis huesos”.

Prayer of Pope Francis for Corona Virus O Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick. At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith. You, Salvation of the Roman People, know what we need. We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee, joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial. Help us, Mother O Divine Love, to conform ourselves to the Father’s will and to do what Jesus tells us: He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us, through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen

We seek refuge under your protection, O Holy Mother of God. Do not despise our pleas– we who are put to the test and deliver us from ever danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.

Our Lady Lady of Lourdes, Feast Day, February 11th “I do not promise to make you happy in this world but in the other.”
