WRITTEN IN STONE

The rules written on the stone tablets given to Moses are easy to remember, if not so easy to follow. Today we learn that the rules are no longer outside ourselves but that God has written them on our hearts. God says, "I will be their God and they shall be my people." We are now bound in a relationship with God and are not just following God's rules. The model for the relationship is Jesus. Jesus, Son though he was, was made perfect through his suffering and became the source of salvation for all of us, who are far less than perfect. Jesus describes this relationship as a grain of wheat, whole unto itself, that falls into the embrace of the earth and is broken in order to produce the life-sustaining wheat.

Rifa

SALIR A LA LUZ

Si nuestras obras no pueden salvarnos, ¿entonces por qué estamos haciendo todas estas obras y sacrificios durante la Cuaresma? Tradicionalmente se nos pide que dejemos o renunciemos a hacer algo durante la Cuaresma para que podamos experimentar la perdida y privación de la que habla el Antiguo Testamento cuando estamos separados de Dios. Más recientemente se nos ha pedido hacer algo que tenga un sentido positivo, para añadir algo bueno a nuestras vidas en lugar de quitar algo malo. Cualquiera de esas maneras funciona porque ambas son medios de despertar-nos de la vida que llevamos, algunas veces indolente, otras veces indiferente, pero más a menudo aislado de lo que está en el centro de la vida de Dios, por ejemplo: amor y sacrifi-cio. La Cuaresma es una oportunidad para vivir nuestras vidas como Jesús vivió la suya. Jesús vivió en la luz del amor, la verdad y el sacrificio. La Cuaresma es una oportunidad para encontrar la luz en nuestras propias vidas.

ESCRITO EN PIEDRA

Las reglas escritas en las piedras que le fueron dadas a Moisés son fáciles de recordar, pero no fácil de seguir. Hoy aprendemos que las reglas no están afuera de nosotros, sino que Dios las escribió en nuestros corazones. Dios dice "Yo seré su Dios y ellos serán mi pueblo". Ahora estamos unidos en una relación con Dios y no sólo estamos siguiendo las reglas de Dios. El modelo para una relación es Jesús. Jesús, aun cuando es el Hijo, fue perfecto por medio de su sufrimiento y se hizo el origen de la salvación para todos nosotros que estamos lejos de la perfección. Jesús describe esta relación como un grano de trigo, entero en sí mismo, que cae en las entrañas de la tierra y se abre para producir el trigo que sustenta la vida.
