“I’m sitting up straight now!”
The baby’s oil and sweat glands are functioning: these help
regulate body temperature. A white filmy layer covers the
baby and protects her delicate skin from the surrounding amniotic fluid and from scratches as she twists and turns. This
way substance will be quickly absorbed into her skin soon
after she is born. She can now respond to sound. Her lungs
are fairly well developed and she would stand a good chance
of survival if born at this time.
Jesus’ invitation in giving us his flesh and blood to eat
and drink is an invitation to enter into his own selfgiving. Eucharist is self-giving. We can be self-giving like Jesus
because through the Eucharist, the body of Christ, we become
Jesus. This is why we can “remain” in Jesus—we are transformed
by what we eat. Our relationship to Jesus, then becomes a relationship of indwelling, of divine life. Eucharist is both gift given
and invitation to our self-giving. The mystery of Eucharist
strengthens us for our daily dying and rising, our daily giving of
ourselves for the sake of others so that we all might share more
abundantly in divine life. (Living Liturgy, p.192)

The Word in our Lives/La Palabra en nuestras vidas
Cuando estábamos en la escuela preparatoria, nos
enteramos que la palabra “sophomore” vino de la palabra
griega que significa “tontos sabios.” La idea era que el estudiante del segundo año cree que ahora él sabe lo todo,
pero él todavía tiene mucho que aprender. Las dos primeras lecturas nos invitan a un banquete de la sabiduría.
Jesús dice que él mismo es el camino a la comprensión de
la voluntad de Dios. Él se entrega como alimento y bebida
para la vida eterna. Entonces, ¿cómo vamos a aceptar estas
invitaciones para participar de la Sabiduría de Dios?
Una forma es leer las Escrituras todos los días,
teniendo tiempo para pensar y orar sobre lo que lee. No
haga todo el hablar, deja que Dios tenga su oportunidad de
ser escuchado. Los evangelios son especialmente buenos
“alimentos,” a causa de todos los ejemplos que Jesús dio en
sus sermones y parábolas.
Escuche las lecturas y la homilía en la misa. El
pastor puede tener algunas ideas que le hace pensar. Reciba la comunión con frecuencia para ser alimentado con el
pan de vida. La Iglesia siempre ha enseñado que recibimos
alimento con ambos la Palabra y la Eucaristía.
Si queremos crecer en la sabiduría de Dios, tenemos que ejercer nuestra fe. Si usted tiene un amigo o pariente que es un buen ejemplo de la fe, hable con esa persona acerca de cómo usted experimente a Dios o la falta de
experiencia. Usted podría ofrecer ser un patrocinador para
alguien en el programa de iniciación cristiana para adultos
y ayudar a alguien a crecer en la fe. Su parroquia puede
tener recursos o discusiones en línea. Dios nunca se obliga
a nadie. Para crecer en su sabiduría, tiene que aceptarla.
Pídale verdadera comida y usted no será decepcionado.
Pero sea paciente; Dios nos da solamente lo que estamos
listos para recibir.

Welcome
To St. William Catholic Church
When we were in high school, we learned that
the word sophomore came from Greek words meaning
“wise fools.” The idea was that the second year student
thinks he knows it all now, but still has a lot to learn.
The first two readings invite us to a banquet of wisdom.
Jesus says he himself is the way to understanding God’s
will; he gives himself as food and drink for eternal life.
So how will we accept these invitations to partake of the
Wisdom of God?
One way is to read the scriptures every day, taking time to think and pray about what you read. Don’t
do all the talking; let God have his chance to be heard.
The gospels are especially good “food” because of all the
examples Jesus gave in his sermons and parables.
Listen to the readings and homily at Mass. The
Pastor may have some insights that make you think.
Receive communion often to be fed with the living
Bread. The Church has always taught that we are fed
with both the word and the Eucharist.
If we want to grow in God’s wisdom, we have to
exercise our faith. If you have a friend or relative who
is a good example of faith, talk with that person about
how you experience God or your lack of experiences.
You could offer to be a sponsor for someone in the
RCIA, and help someone else’s faith to grow. Your parish or diocese may also have on-line resources or discussions. God never forces himself on anyone. To grow in
his Wisdom, we have to accept it. Ask him for real food
and you won’t be disappointed. But be patient, God
only gives what we are ready to receive.
