Al polvo retornamos
Esta es una frase que escuchamos regularmente durante la Cuaresma, pero esta semana el Padre Theo Fuentes nos recuerda la fragilidad de la vida y como tenemos que estar preparados para el encuentro cara a cara con Dios Nuestro Padre. Ese recordatorio de nues-tra mortalidad, es un mensaje que nos saca de nuestro egoísmo recordándonos lo que los antiguos Toltecas, Incas y Mayas ya sabían: esta vida es un sueño y quien muere despierta a la vida verdadera. Este concepto de la vida como sueño se encuentra también en las culturas europeas. El escritor español Pedro Calderón de la Bar-ca (1600-1681) escribió un libro titulado “La vida es sueño”. Para los cristianos esta idea nos invita a no pa-sarnos toda la vida soñando, pero viviendo el Evangelio en esta vida. Así nos preparamos para despertar a la vi-da eterna. Ese refrán de “polvo eres y en polvo te converti-rás” dan un mensaje que lleva la imagen de la tierra que se somete para cultivarse. Del polvo de la tierra sale vida. Y como hemos visto a veces, la tierra se quema para que de sus cenizas y venga más vida. El pensar y reflexionar en la muerte no significa que despreciamos nuestra vida sino para despertarnos a asumir la vida co-mo Jesús lo hizo desde la cruz. De esa manera seremos cultivados sometiendo el polvo de nuestro cuerpo para dar vida eterna en Cristo. El Padre Theo ha sido una presencia muy signi-ficativa en la Misión de San Gabriel, por eso le recono-cemos como ese fertilizante para que las plantas crez-can sanas, florezcan y den mejor fruto. El Padre Theo ha sido símbolo de fe y esperanza para nuestra comuni-dad de fe. El nos ha inspirado e impulsado a seguir fiel-mente a Jesús, a la Iglesia y a Dios. Es precisamente por eso que agradecemos a Dios por darnos la oportuni-dad de tener al Padre Theo entre nosotros, acercarnos mas a Dios y poder vivir su voluntad en nuestras vidas. Gracias Padre Theo y el mejor de nuestros deseos en tu camino de regreso a la Casa del Padre y la vida eterna. Fr. Alex Gaitan, cmf
To dust we return
This is a phrase we hear regularly during Lent, but this week Father Theo Fuentes reminds us of the fragility of life and how we have to be pre-pared for that face-to-face encounter with God, Our Father. That reminder of our mortality, is a message that takes us out of our selfishness by reminding us what the ancient Toltecs, Incas and Mayans already knew: this life is a dream and who dies awake to true life. This concept of life as a dream is also found in European cultures. The Spanish writer Pedro Calde-rón de la Barca (1600-1681) wrote a book entitled "Life is a dream". For Christians this idea invites us not to spend all our lives dreaming, but living the Gospel in this life. Thus we prepare ourselves to awaken to eternal life.
That saying "dust you are and dust you will become" gives a message that carries the image of the land that is submitted to cultivate. From the dust of the earth comes life. And as we have seen some-times, the earth is burned so that from its ashes more life comes. Thinking and reflecting on death does not mean that we despise our life but to awaken us to assume life as Jesus did from the cross. In that way we will be cultivated by submitting the dust of our body to give eternal life in Christ.
Father Theo has been a very significant pres-ence in the Mission of San Gabriel, for that reason we recognize him like that fertilizer so that this par-ish grows healthy, flourishes and gives better fruit. Father Theo has been a symbol of faith and hope for our community of faith. He has inspired and im-pelled us to faithfully follow Jesus, the Church and God. It is precisely for this reason that we thank God for giving us the opportunity to have Father Theo among us, to get closer to God and to be able to live God´s will in our lives. Thank you Father Theo and the best of our wishes on your way back to the Fa-ther's House and eternal life.
