Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
June 26, 2016
“No one who sets a hand to the plow
and looks to what was left behind
is fit for the kingdom of God.”
— Luke 9:62
FOCUS ON THE MISSION
“There are so many things to do.” “We have so little
time.” How many variations of these statements have you
heard or even said yourself?
Actually neither statement is completely true. There
are many things to do in this life, but really few things
that are vitally important. Working, searching, conniving,
and worrying our way to “gratify[ing] the desires of the
flesh,” as Paul relates in today’s second reading, are really non-productive. So little time? When we take on the
freedom that Christ offers us, we have all the time we
need in this world, and even more in the next.
Elisha, the prophet Elijah’s chosen servant, was
slightly befuddled about what he should do. When Elijah
called, he returned to bid farewell to his parents and provide food for his people. Only then did he follow.
Jesus demands something different, something more
of his disciples. He calls us to a single-minded determination to drop everything and follow him. Now, not later.

and maintaining smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors. For a list of other suggestions
please email:
jvienna@la-archdiocese.org or call (213) 637

Año de la Misericordia
Jesús sigue tocando en nuestras puertas, las puertas de
nuestras vidas. Él no hace esto por medio magia, o con
efectos especiales, o con luces electricas o con fuegos
artificiales. Jesús sigue tocando nuestras puertas en
los rostros de nuestros hermanos y hermanas, en los
rostros de nuestros vecinos, en los rostros de los que
están a nuestro lado.
Cita del Papa Francisco
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
El último sábado de junio o el primero de julio en un ayuntamiento de Valcidacos, España, se pone en escena el Miserere
escrito por Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer (1836-1870). Esta obra
relata como un músico llega de noche a la Abadía de Fetero
pidiendo posada. Los hermanos del monasterio lo invitaron a
pasar la noche. Allí él les contó su vida pecaminosa y su deseo
de encontrar un Miserere (Salmo 51) digno de expiar sus pecados ante Dios. Le contaron del Miserere del Monte que cantaban durante la noche los monjes difuntos de un Monasterio que
había sido destruido siglos atrás. El músico afanado por encontrar su Miserere, corrió a la montaña donde escuchó aquel lamentoso y bello canto. Al regresar a la Abadía intentó escribir
la música de aquel Miserere, pero lo único que logro fue volverse loco.
Aquel pobre hombre murió sin reconocer que cada quien
debe entonar a su manera su propio y pobre Miserere mei
(piedad de mi). Dios no nos perdona por la belleza o la fuerza
de nuestra confesión, sino por su amor y su misericordia.

“El que empuña el arado y mira hacia atrás,
no sirve para el Reino de Dios”.
— Lucas 9:62
CONCÉNTRATE EN LA MISIÓN
“Hay tantas cosas que hacer”. “Tenemos tan poco tiempo”. ¿Cuántas variantes de estas afirmaciones has
oído o incluso dicho tú mismo?
En realidad, ninguna de las dos es completamente
verdadera. Hay muchas cosas que hacer en esta vida, pero
realmente pocas cosas que son de vital importancia. Esforzarse, buscar, actuar en convivencia y preocuparse en pos
del “desorden egoísta del hombre”, como nos dice san
Pablo en la segunda lectura de hoy, no es en absoluto productivo. ¿Tan poco tiempo? Cuando tomamos la libertad
que Cristo nos ofrece, tenemos todo el tiempo que necesitamos en este mundo y aún más en el que sigue.
Eliseo, el sirviente elegido del profeta Elías, estaba un tanto aturdido sin saber qué debía hacer. Cuando
Elías lo llamó, regresó a despedirse de sus padres y a
darle comida a su gente. Sólo después lo siguió.
Jesús nos pide algo diferente, algo digno de sus
discípulos. Nos pide una determinación absoluta para
dejar todo y seguirlo. Ahora, no después.
