PENTECOST SUNDAY
“And I will ask the Father and
he will give you another Advocate
to be with you always.” Pentecost
fulfilled this promise. The Holy
Spirit came upon the apostles and
nothing was ever the same again.
This event is often referred to as the “birthday” of the
church. It took Pentecost--and the power of the Spirit--to embolden
the apostles to begin their ministry of preaching and baptizing.
Conversions began to happen and the early church began to grow.
And all of this took place without Jesus’ earthly presence among them.
This is one of the most encouraging elements of the practice
of our Christian faith. We believe that through the Holy Spirit, God
dwells within us and empowers us. We believe that even though
we never walked with Jesus and the apostles, we are nonetheless
accompanied by the same Spirit who is always available to us! We
only need to stir up this Spirit within our souls by praying sincerely,
“Come, Holy Spirit!”
The special hymn of today’s feast, called the sequence, does
just this. It also expresses well the package of “benefits” that come
from the presence of the Advocate among us: “You, of comforters
the best; You, the soul’s most welcome guest; Sweet refreshment
here below; In our labor, rest most sweet; Grateful coolness in the
heat; Solace in the midst of woe.” And not only do we receive these
personal blessings, but the Church herself also receives a tremendous
gift. As Jesus said, “The Advocate, the Holy Spirit... will teach you
everything and remind you of all that I told you.” It is only through
this divine guidance from on high that the Church has the power and
privilege to teach and guide us who are still here below.

DOMINGO DE PENTECOSTÉS
Hoy la Iglesia proclama y
alaba a una voz. ¡Ven, espíritu Santo, y
enciéndenos en el fuego de tu amor! Deja
en nosotros tus siete sagrados dones. Don
de “sabiduría”, para que encontremos
sabor a las cosas de Dios. Don de “entendimiento”, para entender
mejor lo que es verdadero y lo que es falso. Don de “ciencia”, para
que veamos lo bueno del mundo. Don de “consejo”, para que sepamos
siempre actuar acorde a tu voluntad. Don de “piedad”, para saber amar
Dios como Padre y a Jesús como Hijo. Don de “temor de Dios”, para
saber alejarnos de las cosas que lo ofenden. Don de “fortaleza”, para
ser verdaderos discípulos misioneros de Jesucristo y sus testigos dando
testimonio de su resurrección.
¿Qué don pides al Espíritu Santo? Imaginas que estás en el
cenáculo reunido con todos. ¿Que ves, que escuchas, que respondes?
El comienzo de la predicación de Jesús en la sinagoga fue sellado
por el don del Espíritu. “El Espíritu del Señor está sobre mí” (Lc 4,
18). Ahora, al comienzo de la Iglesia con los apóstoles y la Virgen
Maria, todos reunidos en un mismo lugar, da comienzo la predicación
y testimonio de ellos sellados con la efusión del Espíritu. Viento, fuego
y don de lenguas son símbolos que nos ayudan a identificar al Espíritu
Santo. Agradecemos y alabamos a Dios en esta Eucaristía por este
tiempo de Pascua y por enviarnos su Espíritu, que sus siete sagrados
dones sean dados a muchas personas en sus comunidades para que
podamos cada día vivir mejor como hijos e hijas de Dios, siendo fieles
seguidores del Señor resucitado.
