Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
St. Columbkille Parish
Brighton, MA
14º Domingo del tiempo ordinario
En nuestra parroquia, el equipo de preparación para el
sacramento del matrimonio estaba respondiendo a las preguntas de las parejas comprometidas. Un joven muy valiente planteó una cuestión interesante: ¿cómo se sabe con
certeza si la persona que amas es la más adecuada para ti?
¿Cómo puede estar uno seguro de que esta es el persona
con la que se debe casar? Hubo una pausa en la conversación ya que el equipo ponderó la pregunta y luego se ofrecieron diversas respuestas acerca de la confianza, la fe, la
vocación y hacerse el firme propósito de que la relación
funcione. Uno de los chicos, que había estado casado por
38 años, tenía una muy buena respuesta. Dijo haber estado seguro de que ella era la persona adecuada para casarse porque todos los días, antes y después de la boda, ella
lo hizo ser un mejor hombre, un mejor esposo, un mejor
padre y un mejor cristiano. Y dijo que El esperaba haber
hecho lo mismo por ella.
Nuestra historia como Iglesia y como nación está llena de
ejemplos de aquellos que han hecho otras personas mejor
por sus palabras, su buen ejemplo, sus actos de valor o
incluso una visión de gran alcance. Es una herencia que
nos llama a la grandeza, para ser una luz para el mundo y
un faro de esperanza. Hoy damos gracias por nuestra nación y oramos por nuestros líderes y nuestros ciudadanos.
Que cada uno haga lo que sea necesario para hacer de todos nosotros mejores personas, mejores americanos y mejores cristianos.
