~ REFLECTION ~ After reading today’s Gospel, take time to medi-tate on the following questions:
• What word or words in this passage caught your attention?
• What in this passage comforted you?
• What in this passage challenged you? After you meditate try living the Word this week by joining your parish or community celebration of National Migration Week to recognize the gifts that migrants and refugees bring to our culture and our Church.
~ REFLEXION ~ Después de leer el Evangelio de hoy, tómese el tiempo para meditar sobre las siguientes pre-guntas: • ¿Qué palabra o palabras en este pasaje lla-
mó su atención? • ¿Qué le consoló en este pasaje? • ¿Qué le desafió en este pasaje? Después de meditar, trate de vivir la palabra esta semana al unirse a su parroquia o celebra-ción comunitaria de la semana nacional de mi-gración para reconocer los dones que los mi-grantes y los refugiados traen a nuestra cultura y a nuestra iglesia.
Ways to Reflect on the Lord’s Epiphany
What conversion of mind, heart, and life is the Lord asking of me? Go and search diligently for the child. Where am I searching for religious meaning? How do I know if I find what I am searching for? They prostrated themselves and did him homage. How do I give God the honor He deserves? How does my re-lationship with God extend beyond petitioning for my needs? They departed for their country by another way. What old ways continue to lead me to God? What new ways do I need to embrace to grow closer to God and his Church? Maneras de Reflexionar sobre la
Epifanía del Señor ¿Qué conversión de mente, corazón y vida es el Señor que me pide? Ve a buscar diligentemente al niño. ¿Dónde busco el significado religioso? ¿Cómo sé si encuentro lo que busco? Se postraron y le hicieron un homenaje. ¿Cómo le doy a Dios el honor que se merece? ¿Cómo se ex-tiende mi relación con Dios más allá de las peticiones para mis nece-sidades? Se marcharon por su país por otro camino. ¿Qué viejos caminos me siguen guiando hacia Dios? ¿Qué nuevas formas necesito adoptar para acercarme más a Dios y a su iglesia?
