JULY 8, 2018 14TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time How many times were you told as a child, and have since told your own children, that true wisdom comes from learning when to keep your mouth shut? That’s a central lesson of our lives, and most of us feel enormous grati-tude for the many times we wanted to say something horrible, and didn’t. That’s true maturity, and society functions so much better when people exercise that dis-cipline. Ahem. But here’s the question: when is it holy and right to speak up? I admit that I congratulate myself every night, when I make my examen, that I showed such maturity in staying quiet in situations where I might have wanted to speak. Hey, I didn’t make any waves. And there go my baptism and confirmation vows, right out the window. I don’t know how I missed it for years and years, but the actual image of Jesus that emerges now from the distor-tions of my youth is One who took issue with the reli-gious and political authorities, and those who were profiting because of them. He put his life at risk―and yes, died terribly for it―every time he spoke, when it was so much smarter to stay silent. Jesus the Prophet broke all the rules. He healed on the Sabbath. He ate with sinners. He touched the “unclean.” He even went into the Temple and discharged those who were cheating the poor. And when he came into Jerusa-lem the week before his death, he came on a colt, a beast of burden, an animal of peace. The Romans, of

course, entering from the west at that same time, came in on their war horses. Oh, Jesus. How did we miss you?

How has your image of who Jesus truly is changed through the years?

Decimo-Cuarto Domingo de Tiempo Ordinario ¿Cuántas veces se te dijo cuando eras niño, y le has di-cho tú a tus propios hijos, que la verdadera sabiduría consiste en aprender cuando mantener la boca cerrada? Esa es una lección central en nuestras vidas, y casi todos nosotros sentimos mucha gratitud al pensar en todas esas veces que queríamos decir algo horrible pero no lo hicimos. Esa es verdadera madures, y la sociedad funcio-na mucho mejor cuando la gente ejercita esa disciplina. Ejem. Pero la pregunta es: ¿cuándo es santo y correcto hablar? Admito que siempre me felicito a mi misma cada noche, cuando me hago mi examen, por haber mostrado tanta madures al quedarme callada en situaciones donde quise haber dicho algo. Oye, yo no hice olas. Y me olvido de mis promesas de bautismo y confirmación. No se por que no me había dado cuenta de esto durante tantos años, pero la imagen verdadera que recuerdo ha-ber tenido de Jesús en las distorsiones de mi juventud era que Él siempre tenía problemas con las autoridades religiosas y políticas, y con aquellos que se lucraban a causa de ellos. El arriesgaba su vida−y sí, murió terrible-mente a causa de esto−cada vez que hablaba, cuando era mucho más inteligente quedarse callado. Jesús el profeta rompía todas las reglas. Él sanaba en el día de reposo. El comía con pecadores. El tocaba a los “impuros.” Hasta llego a entrar al Templo y corrió a to-dos los que estaban estafando a los pobres. Y cuando entró en Jerusalén la semana antes de su muerte, mon-taba un burrito, una bestia de carga, un animal de paz. Los romanos, por supuesto, quienes entraban por el lado oeste al mismo tiempo, venían en sus caballos de guerra. Oh Jesús. ¿Cómo es que no te vimos antes? ¿En qué manera ha cambiado tu imagen de Jesús a tra-

vés de los años? Kathy McGovern©2018 www.lahistoriayusted.com

AROUND THE COMMUNITY JULY 8, 2018

LIVE THE LITURGY - It seems that Jesus is always facing some kind of op-position. Today, those from his native place amaze him because of their lack of faith. We oppose Jesus as well. It is not easy to be challenged and realize our great need to change. We grow comfortable with ourselves and our surroundings and resist change. We become defensive when the wisdom Jesus utters asks us to leave ourselves and our con-cerns and think more about others. We lack faith in God, faith in ourselves, and faith in one another. We are asked to keep our eyes fixed on the Lord and al-low ourselves to be stretched. Jesus knows what he is talking about. Do we really believe this?

WHY? Vocations!!

LIVE THE LITURGY - God does not rejoice in our demise or our destruction. Rather, He made us in His image and desires that we have life. He also desires that we be healed and know His loving touch. There is great power in an embrace. The touch of another can heal wounds and restore life. There is also power in faith. Faith can turn us toward the truth and turn us toward God. God can profoundly change how we see Him, ourselves, and one another. God de-sires that we turn toward Him and be healed of all that wounds and binds us so that we can be free and enjoy the fullness life. Reach out and share your faith with someone this week so that they can receive God's life-changing embrace.

EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP ~ RECOGNIZE GOD IN YOUR ORDINARY MOMENTS Sometimes we need a dose of healthy skepticism. Do you see some of the claims on the Internet, in social media, or even on the cover of supermarket tabloids? If we are not careful, we can easily be led astray. However, when we find ourselves skeptical all the time, unable to trust anyone or anything, we have a problem. Trust is essential in a conversion process, and we all are in a continual process of turning toward and moving closer to God. If we find it hard to trust the promises of God, then we will find ourselves lost and bewildered. Sometimes the biggest obstacle to a stewardship way of life is lack of trust. This is true for individuals as well as parish communities. Do we believe that God will provide for our needs? Do we believe that if we give it all away we will receive even more in abundance? Do we believe that there is true freedom in complete sur-render? Many will say that the principles of a stewardship way of life sound good spirituality and are inspiring. But when really faced with the tough decisions, they will fall back on placing trust in themselves, material goods, or money. Are we true disciples and good stew-ards as we claim? Where do you place your trust? Have you chosen a path where you are all in or are you still keeping something for yourself because you just aren't sure all this talk of "consider the lilies" is real or just pretty words on a page?

Si no tenemos cuidado, po-demos extraviarnos fácilmente. Sin embargo, cuando somos escépticos todo el tiempo, incapaces de confiar en nadie o en nada, tenemos un problema. La confianza es esencial en el proceso de con-versión, y todos estamos en un proceso continuo de con-versión y acercamiento a Dios. Si nos resulta difícil confiar en las promesas de Dios, entonces estaremos perdidos y desconcertados. A veces, el mayor obstáculo para una forma de vida de corresponsabilidad es la falta de confianza. Esto es cierto tanto para las personas como para las comunidades par-roquiales. ¿Creemos que Dios suplirá nuestras nece-sidades? ¿Creemos que si damos todo, recibiremos aún más abundancia? ¿Creemos que hay verdadera libertad en una entrega total? Muchos dirán que los principios de una forma de vida de corresponsabilidad parecen ser buenos espiritualmente y que son inspiradores. Pero cuando realmente se en-frentan a decisiones difíciles, terminan confiando en sí mismos, en sus bienes materiales o su dinero. ¿Somos verdaderos discípulos y buenos siervos como afirmamos ser? ¿Dónde depositas tu confianza? ¿Has elegido el camino de la entrega total o todavía te reservas algo para ti, porque no estás seguro de que todo este discurso so-bre "considerar los lirios" sea real o piensas que son solo palabras bonitas de una página? ~Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS
