BARGAINING WITH GOD
REGATEO CON DIOS
In the first reading from Genesis today, we hear one of
the most protracted deal-making scenes between a human and God in all of the Bible. It was this sort of courageous standing toe-to-toe with the Almighty that helped
earn Abraham the reputa on of being a fearlessly faithful man, one who lived his end of the covenant and, in
deep, trus ng faith, would call upon the Lord to live up
to the other end. Other ancient religions had accounts of
mortals bartering with the divine, but for a mere man to
whi le down the divinity’s requirements, to stay the
wrathful hand of the heavens for the sake of a handful
of the innocent, was new and remarkable. Abraham began the trajectory that would find a pinnacle in Christ on
the cross, where his own “faith in the power of
God” (Colossians 2:12) would lead him not to care how
many innocent there were, but to o er himself as a sacrifice so that all might be forgiven their transgressions
and allowed to live in life eternal.
En nuestra primera lectura de hoy, tomada del libro del
Génesis, escuchamos una de las escenas de regateo más
largas de toda la Biblia, entre Dios y un ser humano. Fue
esa clase de osadía –la de atreverse a regatear con el
Todopoderoso– lo que le ganó a Abraham la reputación
de ser un hombre de una fidelidad sin miedo, un hombre
que cumplió fielmente su parte de la alianza y que, con
fe y confianza ilimitadas, le exigió al Señor que también
cumpliera la suya. Se dan ejemplos en otras religiones de
la an güedad de seres mortales que se atrevían a regatear con sus dioses. Pero el que un mero hombre se pusiera a rebajar poco a poco las exigencias de su Dios y a
frenar la mano airada del Señor por causa de unos pocos
inocentes –eso era algo nuevo e insólito. Con Abraham
comenzó una trayectoria que había de culminar en Cristo crucificado, cuya fe en el poder de Dios (véase Colosenses 2:12) lo llevaría a no pensar en cuántos inocentes
habría o no habría, sino a ofrecerse en sacrificio para
que a todos los culpables se les perdonaran sus crímenes
y pudieran entrar en la vida eterna.
STRIKING A SCARY DEAL
In teaching his disciples how to pray, Jesus gives them
the benefit of the doubt: “Forgive us our sins, for we
ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us” (Luke 11:4). It
is not too di cult to imagine Jesus looking around at his
followers rather pointedly as he says this, eyebrows
arched, perhaps emphasizing the word “everyone” as he
spoke. This, when truly prayed, is a scary invita on (or
challenge) to God: forgive us in the same way and to the
same degree that we forgive others. Perhaps we count
on the Almighty to live up to the forgiveness end of the
bargain even when we fail to; we, therefore, don’t really
seem to believe the fact that God can reserve the right
to say “OK” to this invita on at any me, and make us
bear the consequences. A good barometer of whether or
not we’re truly sincere in our invita on might be whether or not we break out in a cold sweat when we pray it.
Can we always count on God to be merciful and forgiving? Yes. Can we always count on God to honor every
agreement God enters into? Again, yes.
Today’s Readings: Genesis 18:20–32; Psalm 138:1–3, 6–8; Colossians 2:12–14; Luke 11:1–13

UN TRATO ESCALOFRIANTE
Cuando Jesús enseñó a sus discípulos a rezar, les dio una
frase que nos debe asustar bastante: “Perdónanos nuestros pecados, porque también nosotros perdonamos a
todo el que nos ofende” (Lucas 11:4). No es di cil imaginar a Jesús mirando a su alrededor con una mirada penetrante a cada uno de ellos mientras dice esas palabras,
tal vez arqueando las cejas y recalcando la frase “a todo
el que nos ofende”. Esto es un trato escalofriante, pues
estamos invitando a Dios (o tal vez retándolo …) a que
nos perdone de la misma manera y en el mismo grado
que nosotros perdonamos a los demás. Tal vez contamos
conque el Señor cumplirá su parte del trato y nos perdonará, aun si nosotros no cumplimos la parte nuestra.
Parece, por lo tanto, que no creemos del todo que Dios
puede reservarse el derecho de aceptar nuestra invitación y dejarnos sufrir las consecuencias. Un buen barómetro para medir nuestra sinceridad al hacer esta invitación a Dios, podría ser el ver si estas palabras producen
escalofríos en nosotros al pronunciarlas. ¿Podemos contar con que Dios siempre es misericordioso y perdona?
¡Sí! ¿Podemos asimismo contar conque Dios cumple todos sus tratos? Pues, ¡también, sí!
Lecturas de hoy: Génesis 18:20–32; Salmo 138:1–3, 6–8; Colosenses 2:12–14; Lucas 11:1–13

NFP Awareness Week

safe, healthy and reliable method of family planning that
can help married couples either achieve or postpone
pregnancies, and “…the essen al quali es of selfrestraint, self-discipline, mutual respect, and shared responsibility carry over to all facets of our marriage, making our rela onship more in mate.” (Faithful to Each
Other Forever, 44). There are many young adults and
married couples in our diocese who are already embracing the beauty of NFP. We also encourage our own parishioners to learn more about the countless blessings of
NFP. To learn more or for ques ons about NFP, please

SUNDAY, JULY 21, 2013
SIXTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
It will be on your desk in the morning
A rabbi once described the Sabbath in this way. Imagine
a desk full of all the things you have to do. They demand to be done though
you feel you don’t have enough time and energy to do them, and the farthest
thing from your mind is taking time away from getting through them. Then,
despite all that, imagine sweeping everything away and clearing a space—
only for a day. That’s what the Sabbath is like. No matter how many your
responsibilities, take one day to make some room for God, for those closest
to you, for service to others, and for rest. Each week the Sabbath offers this
chance to re-ground yourself in what’s most important.
TODAY’S READINGS: Genesis 18:1-10a; Colossians 1:24-28; Luke 10:38
-42 (108)
“Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many
things.”
and your family. The Lebanese monk Sharbel Makhlûf had a strong devotion
to the Blessed Sacrament and followed a strict regimen of fasting. He learned
that God provided where he could not. As a grown-up you may have lost sight
of what it means to be provided for in your life. Today show your need for
God by saying a prayer asking God for help in fasting from harmful habits.
TODAY’S READINGS: Exodus 16:1-5, 9-15; Matthew 13:1-9
“This is the bread which the Lord has given you to eat.”
THURSDAY, JULY 25
FEAST OF JAMES, APOSTLE
Be blind to ambition
In an impromptu interview with a group of students, one young girl asked
Pope Francis whether he had wanted to become pope. Francis laughed and
said a person who wants to be pope doesn’t have his own best interest at
heart: “God does not give him His blessings.” Ambition is not an ideal characteristic for leadership, Francis warned later in a meeting with his papal nuncios. Bishops should “not be ambitious” rather they should be “pastors close to
the people . . . gentle, patient and merciful.” True pastors keep their “gaze
fixed on Christ.” It appears Jesus’ servant leadership is still in vogue.
TODAY’S READINGS: 2 Corinthians 4:7-15; Matthew 20:20-28 (605)
“The Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to
give his life as a ransom for many.”
MONDAY, JULY 22
MEMORIAL OF MARY MAGDALENE
Watch out for identity theft
You’ve probably heard the horror stories of people who have had their identities stolen by scammers who then wreak havoc on a person’s finances
through fraudulent purchases and the like. Mary Magdalene, were she alive
today, would sympathize. Her reputation has taken a beating over the centuries. A persistent legend in the church has it that she was the unnamed
“sinful woman” who anointed the feet of Jesus. Instead she turns out to have
been the first witness of the Resurrection, rightly called “apostle to the apostles.” It pays to look carefully at the evidence before judging anyone’s behavior harshly—some day it may be your own identity that has been hijacked!
TODAY’S READINGS: Exodus 14:5-18 (395); John 20:1-2, 11-18 (603)
FRIDAY, JULY 26
MEMORIAL OF JOACHIM AND ANNE, PARENTS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
In praise of grandparents
“Grandmother, Grandfather, what was it like when you were growing up?”
Thus begins many a conversation between a young child and his or her
grandparents. Grandparents link the generations in a special way, spooling
out the thread of tradition that is handed down from parent to child to grandchild over the ages. They are the keepers of memory, reminding us of how
things “used to be.” Without this perspective, each generation would have to
start from scratch, making the same mistakes and learning the same painful
lessons. If we take the time to really listen to what our parents’ parents have
to say, we might just build a better world for our children’s children.
TODAY’S READINGS: Exodus 20:1-17; Matthew 13:18-23 (399)
TUESDAY, JULY 23
MEMORIAL OF BRIDGET, RELIGIOUS
Give God a try
From the moment we’re born we all face challenges in life. We learn how to
walk—and we take some tumbles. We allow ourselves to fall in love—and
we experience heartache. We work hard to be better people—and we sometimes fall short. It takes faith to attempt things without knowing how they’ll
turn out. Fear can tempt us to not try hard at anything. Yet we’re all called by
God to do and be more than we can envision! We see that in stories of our
ancestors in faith, such as Moses, who, by the grace of God and the willingness to try, achieved remarkable things. How have you allowed God to work
in and through you today?
TODAY’S READINGS: Exodus 14:21-15:1; Matthew 12:46-50 (396)
SATURDAY, JULY 27
MEMORIAL OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
Mary is our model
You may be familiar with the 16th-century Litany of Loreto, which gathers
wonderful images of Mary such as Mystical Rose, Tower of Ivory, Ark of the
Covenant, Gate of Heaven, and Morning Star. Saint Francis of Assisi in the
13th century had a similar litany, his “Salutation of the Virgin,” which hails
Mary as Christ’s Palace, Tabernacle, Home, Robe, Handmaid, and Mother, but
perhaps the most striking is Mary as “Virgin made church”: Mary as the model for all Christians to pray, “Let it be done unto me according to God’s word”
and who is always directing us toward her son, saying again and again, “Do
what he tells you.”
TODAY’S READINGS: Exodus 24:3-8; Matthew 13:24-30 (400)
“Jesus said to her, ‘ . . . Go to my brothers and tell them.’ ”
“Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord swept
the sea with a strong east wind throughout the night and so
turned it into dry land.”
WEDNESDAY, JULY 24
MEMORIAL OF SHARBEL MAKHLÛF, PRIEST
You can depend on it
Through earning your first paycheck as a teenager or young adult
you learned the value of being able to earn a living. You became
more self-reliant as an adult and began to provide for yourself
“The seed sown on rich soil is the one who hears the word and
understands it.”
“We will do everything that the Lord has told us.”
