Stewardship of Time -

As the prophet Isaiah proclaims in the first reading, the Lord

continues to remind us that we are his servants. Imagine the

Lord speaking these words to you personally: “You are my

servant. Through you I show my glory. I formed you as my

servant from your mother’s womb. I will make you a light so

that you may shine the light of my salvation everywhere you

go, and reveal my glory to everyone you encounter. I will give

you the strength to do this. I will give you confidence. Heed my

words, for I have spoken to you.” What would your response be

to the Lord? Would it be different from the response you give

the Lord now?

Segundo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Un Momento de Corresponsabilidad

Como lo anuncia el Profeta Isaías en la primera lectura,

el Señor continúa recordándonos que somos sus

servidores. Imagine al Señor diciéndole a usted estas

palabras personalmente: “Tú eres mi servidor. A través

de ti yo muestro mi gloria. Yo te formé como mi servidor

desde el vientre de tu madre. Yo haré de ti una luz para

que puedas hacer brillar la luz de mi salvación donde

quiera que vayas, y reveles mi gloria a todo aquel a quien

encuentres. Yo te daré la fortaleza para hacer esto. Yo te

daré la confianza. Atiende a mis palabras, porque a ti las

he dicho.” ¿Cuál sería su respuesta al Señor? ¿Sería

diferente de la respuesta que usted le daría al Señor ahora?
