Good News Reflection
Faith that works This Sunday's second reading defines the
doctrine of faith and works. Works without faith, no matter how
good the works are, don't get us into heaven. Some of us try to
earn our way into God's heart by serving in church activities,
saying all the "right" prayers, and so on. This idea comes from our
childhood when we learned: "If I'm good enough, Mom and Dad will
reward me" and "If I do well in school, the teacher will give me a
gold star" or smiley face or whatever it is they paste on homework
today. The problem is, we can never be good enough for heaven. This
is why Jesus came to earth and took our sins to the cross. Faith
without works isn't going to get us into heaven, either. Here's
why: Faith in Jesus starts with believing that, in his love for us,
he died for us and rose again so that we'll have eternal life. This
is what opens the door to heaven. However, to walk through that
door, we have to follow Jesus. This requires doing more than
believing in his death and resurrection; we also believe in his
life -- how he lived his life. Following Jesus affects our
lifestyles and our day-to-day behavior. How Christ-like is it? The
proof that we truly do have faith is evidenced in the good works
that we do. Faith in Jesus means we love him so much that we love
all those whom he loves, which is EVERYone regardless of whether
they deserve it or not. And faith in Jesus means we trust him so
much that we do whatever he tells us -- imitating him in all of our
activities, adopting his attitudes, and responding to his calling
to serve as priests, religious, and lay ministers, even when it
seems risky or illogical. Thus, when Jesus says to us in the Gospel
reading, "Who do you say that I am?" we answer that he is our
Savior who takes us to heaven, and he is our Lord who teaches us
how to live, and he is our Lover who empowers us to love others
even when it becomes a cross to bear. Questions for Personal
Reflection:
Is Jesus Christ truly your Lord and Savior? Do you believe that
he suffered and died on your behalf so that you could reach heaven?
Are you doing good works because you adore him so much that you
want to go where he goes and do what he does and serve as his hands
and feet and voice wherever he leads you?
Fe que obra
La segunda lectura de este domingo, define la doctrina de la fe
y las obras.
Las obras sin fe, no importa cuán buenas sean, no nos llevan al
cielo. Algunos de nosotros tratamos de ganar nuestro lugar en el
corazón de Dios, sirviendo en las actividades de la iglesia,
diciendo todas las oraciones "correctas", etcétera. Esta idea
proviene de nuestra infancia, cuando aprendimos: "Si soy lo
suficientemente bueno, Mamá y Papá me recompensarán" y "Si trabajo
bien en la escuela, la maestra me dará una estrella dorada" o una
carita feliz o lo que sea que ponen en las tareas actualmente.
El problema es, nunca podremos ser lo suficientemente buenos
para el cielo. Por eso Jesús vino a la tierra y llevó nuestros
pecados a la cruz.
La fe sin obras, no nos llevará al cielo tampoco. He aquí por
qué:
La fe en Jesús comienza con la creencia de que, por Su amor por
nosotros, murió por nosotros y resucitó para que tengamos vida
eterna. Esto es lo que abre la puerta del cielo. No obstante, para
pasar por esa puerta, debemos seguir a Jesús. Esto requiere hacer,
más que creer en Su muerte y resurrección; también creemos en Su
vida -- cómo vivió Su vida. Seguir a Jesús afecta nuestro estilo de
vida y nuestro comportamiento diario. ¿Qué tan parecidos a Cristo
son?
La prueba de que verdaderamente tenemos fe, se evidencia en las
buenas obras que hacemos. La fe en Jesús significa que lo amamos
tanto que amamos a aquellos a los que Él ama, que son TODOS, sin
importar si lo merecen o no.
Y tener fe en Jesús significa que confiamos tanto en Él, que
hacemos todo lo que nos diga -- imitándolo en todas nuestras
actividades, adoptando Sus actitudes y respondiendo a Su llamado a
servir como sacerdotes, religiosos y ministros laicos, aun cuando
parezca riesgoso o ilógico.
Entonces, cuando Jesús nos dice en la lectura del Evangelio:
"¿Quién dicen ustedes que soy?", respondemos que Él es nuestro
Salvador, el que nos lleva al cielo, que es nuestro Señor, el que
nos enseña cómo vivir y que Él es nuestro Amor, el que nos capacita
para amar a los demás, aun cuando sea una cruz a cargar.
Preguntas para la Reflexión Personal:
¿Es Jesucristo, verdaderamente tu Señor y Salvador? ¿Crees que
sufrió y murió por ti, de manera que puedas alcanzar el cielo?
¿Haces buenas obras porque lo adoras tanto que quieres ir donde Él
va, hacer lo que Él hace y ser Sus manos, pies y voz dondequiera
que te lleve?
