TRADICIONESDENUESTRAFE Existe en Peru un mural milagroso de la Pasion de Jesucristo. Esta imagen reconocida como el Se-nor de los Milagros, el Cristo Moreno o el Cristo de Pachacamilla fue pintada por un angoleno en el si-glo XVII para una cofradıa de africanos. A mitad del siglo un fuerte terremoto sacudio a Lima y las pare-des de la cofradıa se cayeron, sin que se danara el mural. Eventualmente la imagen se revelo como milagrosa para los que oraban delante de ella. En la imagen aparece Jesus cruci icado. Sobre el esta el Espıritu Santo y el Padre. A la derecha de la cruz esta su Madre con el corazon traspasado por una lanza y a su derecha, el iel discıpulo amado. Esta imagen es venerada como el Senor de los Mila-gros. Sin saberlo el artista angoleno ha pintado una re lexion teologica sobre la divinidad y la humani-dad de Jesucristo. En su pasion redentora Jesus abre las puertas del cielo y de la comunicacion en-tre el cielo y la tierra, entre Dios y la humanidad representada por la Madre y el discıpulo. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

PALABRASDESABIDURÍA Hoy aprendemos en la pri-mera lectura que el espıritu de la sabidurıa llega a los que lo invo-can. La sabidurıa, como la Palabra de Dios, lleva un mensaje de consuelo y a la vez constituye un gran desafıo. La carta a los hebreos nos cuenta que la Palabra de Dios, que esta empapada con la sabidu-rıa de Dios, es “mas penetrante que una espada de dos ilos”. No podemos acobardarnos ante la sabi-durıa de Dios ni ante la palabra que tiene el poder de penetrar nuestro corazon y mente. Jesus, la Pala-bra viva de Dios, la encarnacion de la sabidurıa, le dice cosas fuertes y muy penetrantes al joven rico que acude a Jesus en busca de respuestas a sus du-das mas profundas. Precisamente, cuando el joven pensaba que habıa hecho lo su iciente para cumplir los mandamientos de Dios, se le exigio mas. Lo mis-mo sucede en nuestro caso. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
