EVANGELII GAUDIUM The Joy Of The Gospel [1]
Apostolic Exhortation of the Holy Father Francis
THE JOY OF THE GOSPEL fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus. Those who accept his offer of salvation are set free from sin, sorrow, inner emptiness and loneliness. With Christ joy is constantly born anew. In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.
The great danger in today’s world, pervaded as it is by consumerism, is the desolation and anguish born of a complacent yet covetous heart, the feverish pursuit of frivolous pleasures, and a blunted conscience. Whenever our interior life becomes caught up in its own interests and concerns, there is no longer room for others, no place for the poor. God’s voice is no longer heard, the quiet joy of his love is no longer felt, and the desire to do good fades. This is a very real danger for believers too. Many fall prey to it, and end up resentful, angry and listless. That is no way to live a dignified and fulfilled life; it is not God’s will for us, nor is it the life in the Spirit which has its source in the heart of the risen Christ.

THE JOY OF THE GOSPEL (cont’d)
I invite all Christians, everywhere, at this very moment, to a renewed personal encounter with Jesus Christ, or at least an openness to letting him encounter them; I ask all of you to do this unfailingly each day. No one should think that this invitation is not meant for him or her, since “no one is excluded from the joy brought by the Lord”.[1] The Lord does not disappoint those who take this risk; whenever we take a step towards Jesus, we come to realize that he is already there, waiting for us with open arms. Now is the time to say to Jesus: “Lord, I have let myself be deceived; in a thousand ways I have shunned your love, yet here I am once more, to renew my covenant with you. I need you. Save me once again, Lord, take me once more into your redeeming embrace”. How good it feels to come back to him whenever we are lost! Let me say this once more: God never tires of forgiving us; we are the ones who tire of seeking his mercy. Christ, who told us to forgive one another “seventy times seven” (Mt 18:22) has given us his example: he has forgiven us seventy times seven. Time and time again he bears us on his shoulders. No one can strip us of the dignity bestowed upon us by this boundless and unfailing love. With a tenderness which never disappoints, but is always capable of restoring our joy, he makes it possible for us to lift up our heads and to start anew. Let us not flee from the resurrection of Jesus, let us never give up, come what will. May nothing inspire more than his life, which impels us onwards! The books of the Old Testament predicted that the joy of salvation would abound in messianic times. The prophet Isaiah exultantly salutes the awaited Messiah: “You have multiplied the nation, you have increased its joy” (9:3). He exhorts those who dwell on Zion to go forth to meet him with song: “Shout aloud and sing for joy!” (12:6). The prophet tells those who have already seen him from afar to bring the message to others: “Get you up to a high mountain, O herald of good tidings to Zion; lift up your voice with strength, O herald of good tidings to Jerusalem” (40:9). All creation shares in the joy of salvation: “Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth! Break forth, O mountains, into singing! For the Lord has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his suffering ones” (49:13). Zechariah, looking to the day of the Lord, invites the people to acclaim the king who comes “humble and riding on a donkey”: “Rejoice greatly, O daughter Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter Jerusalem! Lo, your king comes to you; triumphant and victorious is he” (9:9). Perhaps the most exciting invitation is that of the prophet Zephaniah, who presents God with his people in the midst of a celebration overflowing with the joy of salvation. I find it thrilling to reread this text: “The Lord, your God is in your midst, a warrior who gives you the victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness, he will renew you in his love; To be continued...
La Alegria del Evangelio Evangelii Gaudium
La alegría del Evangelio llena el corazón y la vida entera de los que se encuentran con Jesús. Quienes se dejan salvar por Él son liberados del pecado, de la tristeza, del vacío interior, del aislamiento. Con Jesucristo siempre nace y renace la alegría. En esta Exhortación quiero dirigirme a los fieles cristianos para invitarlos a una nueva etapa evangelizadora marcada por esa alegría, e indicar caminos para la marcha de la Iglesia en los próxi-mos años. Alegría que se renueva y se comunica El gran riesgo del mundo actual, con su múltiple y abrumadora oferta de consumo, es una tristeza individualista que brota del corazón cómodo y avaro, de la búsqueda enfermiza de placeres superficiales, de la conciencia aislada. Cuando la vida interior se clausura en los propios intereses, ya no hay espacio para los demás, ya no entran los pobres, ya no se escucha la voz de Dios, ya no se goza la dulce alegría de su amor, ya no palpita el entusiasmo por hacer el bien. Los creyentes también corren ese riesgo, cierto y permanente. Muchos caen en él y se convierten en seres resenti-dos, quejosos, sin vida. Ésa no es la opción de una vida digna y plena, ése no es el deseo de Dios para nosotros, ésa no es la vida en el Espíritu que brota del corazón de Cristo resucitado. Invito a cada cristiano, en cualquier lugar y situación en que se encuentre, a renovar ahora mismo su encuentro personal con Jesucristo o, al menos, a tomar la decisión de dejarse encontrar por Él, de intentarlo cada día sin descanso. No hay razón para que alguien piense que esta invitación no es para él, porque «nadie queda excluido de la alegría reportada por el Se-ñor»[1]. Al que arriesga, el Señor no lo defrauda, y cuando alguien da un pequeño paso hacia Jesús, descubre que Él ya esperaba su llegada con los brazos abiertos. Éste es el momento para decirle a Jesucristo: «Señor, me he dejado engañar, de mil maneras escapé de tu amor, pero aquí estoy otra vez para renovar mi alianza contigo. Te necesito. Rescátame de nue-vo, Señor, acéptame una vez más entre tus brazos redentores». ¡Nos hace tanto bien volver a Él cuando nos hemos perdido! Insisto una vez más: Dios no se cansa nunca de perdonar, somos nosotros los que nos cansamos de acudir a su misericordia. Aquel que nos invitó a perdonar «setenta veces siete» (Mt 18,22) nos da ejemplo: Él perdona setenta veces siete. Nos vuelve a cargar sobre sus hombros una y otra vez. Nadie podrá quitarnos la dignidad que nos otorga este amor infinito e inquebrantable. Él nos permite levantar la cabeza y volver a empezar, con una ternura que nunca nos desilusiona y que siempre puede devolvernos la alegría. No huyamos de la resurrección de Jesús, nunca nos declaremos muertos, pase lo que pase. ¡Que nada pueda más que su vida que nos lanza hacia adelante! Los libros del Antiguo Testamento habían preanunciado la alegría de la salvación, que se volvería desbordante en los tiempos mesiánicos. El pro-feta Isaías se dirige al Mesías esperado saludándolo con regocijo: «Tú multiplicaste la alegría, acrecentaste el gozo» (9,2). Y anima a los habitan-tes de Sión a recibirlo entre cantos: «¡Dad gritos de gozo y de júbi-lo!» (12,6). A quien ya lo ha visto en el horizonte, el profeta lo invita a con-vertirse en mensajero para los demás: «Súbete a un alto monte, alegre mensajero para Sión; clama con voz poderosa, alegre mensajero para Jerusalén» (40,9). La creación entera participa de esta alegría de la salvación: «¡Aclamad, cielos, y exulta, tierra! ¡Prorrumpid, montes, en can-tos de alegría! Porque el Señor ha consolado a su pueblo, y de sus pobres se ha compadecido» (49,13). Zacarías, viendo el día del Señor, invita a dar vítores al Rey que llega «pobre y montado en un borrico»: «¡Exulta sin freno, Sión, grita de alegría, Jerusalén, que viene a ti tu Rey, justo y victorioso!» (9,9). Pero quizás la invitación más contagiosa sea la del profeta Sofonías, quien nos muestra al mismo Dios como un centro luminoso de fiesta y de alegría que quiere comunicar a su pueblo ese gozo salvífico. Me llena de vida releer este texto: «Tu Dios está en medio de ti, poderoso salvador. Él exulta de gozo por ti, te renueva con su amor, y baila por ti con gritos de júbi-lo» (3,17).

Stewardship Reflection: Most of us are accustomed to being called Christians — that is, followers of Christ. However, the Lord’s first followers were not called by that name at all. It was not until many years after His Crucifixion and Resurrection that the term “Christian” be-came popularly used. There is a subtle, yet profound reference and statement in today’s Gospel from St. Mark, a reading which pre-sents to us the healing of a blind man. After Jesus has responded to the blind man’s calls for mercy and healing, and the Lord has told him that it was his faith which had saved him, the Gospel tells us of the former blind man, “Immediately he received
his sight and followed him (Jesus) on the way.” What is noteworthy about this is at that time and for the first years after Jesus’ Resurrec-tion, His disciples were called “followers of the way.” They recognized Jesus as the way to live and the way to salvation. (Jesus stated more than once, “I am the way.”) Thus, the man became not just healed but a follower of the Lord. Jesus healed the man on His way from Jeri-cho to Jerusalem, where He would be crucified. The man most likely was with Him all the way. Would we be will-ing to follow the Lord on such a journey? That is ex-actly what He is asking us to do.
