ENGLISH
Knowing God Seventh Sunday of Easter (Cycle A)
Jesus has been taken up into heaven as we begin today's First Reading. His disciples - including the Apostles and Mary - return to the upper room where He celebrat-ed the Last Supper (see Luke 22:12).
There, they devote themselves with one accord to pray-er, awaiting the Spirit that He promised would come upon them (see Acts 1:8).
The unity of the early Church at Jerusalem is a sign of the oneness that Christ prays for in today's Gospel. The Church is to be a communion on earth that mirrors the glorious union of Father, Son and Spirit in the Trinity.
Jesus has proclaimed God's name to His brethren (see
Hebrews 2:12; Psalm 22:23). The prophets had foretold this revelation - a new covenant by which all flesh would have knowledge of the Lord (see Jeremiah 31:33-34)
By the new covenant made in His blood and remem-bered in every Eucharist, we know God as our Father. This is the eternal life Jesus promises. And this is the light and salvation we sing of in today's Psalm.
As God made light to shine out of darkness when the world began, He has enlightened us in Baptism, mak-ing us new creations (see 2 Corinthians 5:17), giving us knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ (see Hebrews 10:32; 2 Corinthians 4:6).
Our new life is a gift of "the Spirit of glory," we hear in
today's Epistle (see John 7:38-39). Made one in His name,
we are given a new name - "Christians" - a name used
only here and in two other places in the Bible (see Acts
11:16; 26:28). We are to glorify God, though we will be
insulted and suffer because of this name.
But as we share in His sufferings, we know we will
overcome (see Revelation 3:12) and rejoice when His glory
is once more revealed. And we will dwell in the house
of the Lord all the days of our lives.

ESPAÑOL
Reflexión Juan 17, 1-11
Si alguna vez hemos dirigido a Dios una oración mientras pasábamos por un momento poco desea-ble, ¿cómo ha sido ese momento de unión con Dios? ¿Qué le hemos pedido, qué le hemos dicho? Lo más
cierto es que hemos dejado desahogar nuestra alma contando a Cristo las penas que atravesábamos en ese momento. Hoy Cristo nos enseña a orar con el alma cargada de temor, de miedo, de pena. Y hoy también Cristo nos dice cuánto se preocupa por nosotros. Que un hombre deje de lado sus sufrimientos y preste mayor atención a otras angustias que no son las suyas, o una de dos: o es un loco que busca fastidiarse la vida con masoquismos o ama vehementemente a los demás. Quien no ha sufrido por una persona ni la conoce ni la ama. Sin embargo, Cristo no se cansa de probarnos su amor. Porque sufrió por nosotros nos ama.
La respuesta más humana de nuestra parte debería de ser la de la gratitud. La de nuestra correspondencia a su amistad. Sufriendo un poco Él u ofreciendo el su-frimiento que ya padecemos. Pero también le agrade-cemos lo que hace por nosotros, y lo hacemos guar-dando los mandamientos pero sobre todo custodiando el distintivo que caracteriza a todo cristiano. La cari-dad. Si Cristo pidió algo ardientemente a su Padre fue precisamente la unidad. "Cuida en tu nombre a los que me has dado para que sean uno" Unidad en la familia, en el trabajo. Unidad en cualquier grupo social en el que nos encontremos. Es así como podríamos consolar a Jesús y como podríamos agradecer lo mucho que se preocupa por nosotros.
Propósito: Para agradecerle a Dios su amor, aceptaré con alegría y confianza las dificultades de este día.
Diálogo con Cristo: Permite que esta oración, en la que doy gloria a tu presencia en mi vida, sea mi punto de partida para tener siempre esa sed de orar que me lleve a la convivencia plena y diaria Contigo y con mis hermanos.
