GOD’S WORD TODAY
Saint Mark’s Gospel has been a rich source of challenge and inspiration for us as we have moved through these latter Sundays of Ordinary Time. Today we hear the familiar story of the poor widow
who placed her two small coins in the temple treasury. She did not
give from her surplus, simply because she had no surplus. The Lord
tells us that she gave from her poverty. In the first reading the
widow of Zarephath gives Elijah her final store of food. She admits
that without this food, she and her son will soon die. Yet her generosity and selflessness result in a jug of oil that never runs dry and
a jar of flour that never goes empty. May these two women inspire
us to respond to the Lord with generous hearts.

LA PALABRA DE DIOS HOY
El Evangelio según san Marcos ha sido una fuente caudalosa, llena de
retos e inspiraciones para nosotros en estos últimos domingos del
Tiempo Ordinario. Hoy escuchamos la historia tan familiar de la viuda
pobre, que puso dos moneditas en las alcancías del templo. Ella no dio
de lo que le sobraba, sencillamente porque nada le sobraba. El Señor
nos dice que ella dio desde su pobreza. En la primera lectura la viuda
de Sarepta le da a Elías el poco alimento que le quedaba almacenado.
Ella admite que sin este alimento ella y su hijo pronto morirían. Y así
resultó que por su generosidad y abnegación la vasija de aceite nunca
se agotó ni la tinaja de harina se vació. Que estas dos mujeres nos
inspiren a responderle al Señor con un corazón generoso. Traducido

The LORD keeps faith forever, secures
justice for the oppressed, gives food
to the hungry.
~Psalm 46:7
El Señor siempre es fiel a su palabra, y
es quien hace justicia al oprimido, el
proporciona pan a los hambrientos.
~Salmo 146 (145):7
GIVING ALL
Trusting widows play a significant role in this weekend’s
readings. At the point of poverty, when giving even the smallest
amount of what they had could imperil their health and wellbeing, they trusted God and gave anyway. What is important
about their giving is not what or how much they gave, but how
they gave it. Without selfishness, they gave to help others. Their
giving was from the heart, with little hope or intention of
receiving any sort of reward or recognition for their generosity.
The monetary values of the widows’ gifts were small, but their
value measured in the Kingdom was priceless.
There is a significant similarity between their gift and the gift
Jesus gave each of us. The widows offered their lives for God.
Jesus offered his life for us.
ENTREGA TOTAL
Las viudas confiadas juegan un importante papel en las lecturas
de esta semana. Aunque eran pobres y el dar aún algo bien
pequeño podría poner en peligro su salud y bienestar, confiaban en
Dios y daban lo que podían. Lo que es importante sobre sus
donativos no es la cantidad que daban, sino que daban algo. Sin
egoísmo, daban para ayudar a otros. Su dar salía del corazón, con
poca esperanza o intención de recibir algún premio o
reconocimiento por su generosidad. El valor monetario de los
dones de las viudas eran pequeños, pero su valor en la medida del
Reino era inestimable.
Hay una gran semejanza entre su regalo y el regalo que Jesús
ha dado a cada uno de nosotros. Las viudas ofrecieron sus vidas a
Dios. Jesús ofreció su vida por nosotros.
IT TAKES MORE
Going to church doesn’t
make you a Christian any more
than going to a garage makes
you an automobile. ~Billy Sunday
SE NECESITA MÁS QUE ESO
Asistir a la iglesia no te
hace cristiano, al igual que ir a
un garaje no te hace un
automóvil.
~Billy Sunday
