Like John the Baptist, our ministry is to point to

the Christ. Whatever we accomplish, like John, we

need to acknowledge that it is not done out of our

power or ability but by the grace of Christ working

through us.

As we grow in the knowledge of Christ we grow in

wisdom. So in the second reading Peter comes to

the realization that God shows no partiality. There

really is no division among people, between those

who are chosen and those who are not. Jew and

Gentile no longer make sense to Peter. And he ar-

rives at this wisdom through his experience of Jesus

and what Jesus stands for.

The life of an evangelist is one of continuing growth.

God accepts us as we are, but that does not mean

that we must not allow the wisdom of God to change

and transform us. As we come to know more kinds

of people, we also must come to the realization, like

Peter, that God does not play favorites. All people

are gifted and beloved by God. No one is left out.

And our message should enable each and every per-

son to hear that indeed they are loved and cher-

ished. The proof of this love of God is in the person

of Jesus, his beloved Son, who in turn gives his life

out of love for us.

Al igual que Juan el Bautista, nuestro ministerio es

señalar a Cristo. Lo que sea que logremos, como John,

debemos reconocer que no se hace por nuestro poder o

habilidad, sino por la gracia de Cristo trabajando a

través de nosotros.

A medida que crecemos en el conocimiento de Cristo,

crecemos en sabiduría.

Entonces, en la segunda lectura, Pedro se da cuenta de

que Dios no muestra parcialidad. Realmente no hay

división entre las personas, entre los elegidos y los que

no. Judío y gentil ya no tienen sentido para Pedro. Y

llega a esta sabiduría a través de su experiencia de

Jesús y lo que Jesús representa.

La vida de un evangelista es de crecimiento continuo.

Dios nos acepta como somos, pero eso no significa que

no debemos permitir que la sabiduría de Dios nos cam-

bie y nos transforme. A medida que llegamos a conocer

más tipos de personas, también debemos llegar a la

conclusión, como Pedro, de que Dios no juega favoritos.

Todas las personas son dotadas y amadas por Dios.

Nadie queda fuera. Y nuestro mensaje debe permitir

que todas y cada una de las personas escuchen que, de

hecho, son amadas y apreciadas. La prueba de este

amor de Dios está en la persona de Jesús, su Hijo

amado, quien a su vez da su vida por amor a nosotros.

Baptism of the Lord

Today we celebrate the baptism of Christ in the Jordan. This is the second epiphany, or manifestation, of the Lord. The past, the present, and the future are made manifest in this epiphany. The most holy one placed Himself among us, the un-clean and sinners. The Son of God freely humbled Himself at the hand of the Baptist. By His baptism in the Jordan, Christ manifests His humility and dedicates Himself to the redemp-tion of man. He takes upon Himself the sins of the whole world and buries them in the waters of the Jordan. Hoy celebramos el bautismo de Cristo en el Jordán. Esta es la segunda epifanía, o manifestación, del Señor. El pasado, el presente y el futuro se manifiestan en esta epi-fanía. El más santo se colocó entre nosotros, los inmundos y los pecadores. El Hijo de Dios se humilló libremente de la mano del Bautista. Por su bautismo en el Jordán, Cristo manifiesta su humildad y se dedica a la redención del hom-bre. Él toma sobre sí los pecados de todo el mundo y los sep-ulta en las aguas del Jordán.
