Jubileo de la Misericordia
Jubileo para los catequistas
Amos castigates religious people who, “comfortably
complacent” (6:1, 5), ignore the unfolding collapse of culture,
nation, religion (6:6). In Jesus’ parable, such complacency becomes
the rich man’s undoing. He neither hurt nor harmed Lazarus, neither
denied him leftovers nor ordered him removed. That is Jesus’
devastating point. The rich man did nothing wrong to Lazarus; he
just did nothing at all good for him. Only in death, separated by “a
great chasm” (Luke 16:26), could the rich man finally see Lazarus,
whom he had failed to see in life, right before his eyes. Like the rich
man’s “five brothers still in my father’s house” (16:27–28), we who
are alive in the Church still have time to see that same Someone,
Jesus, lying neglected right at our door—and time to do something.
Who, specifically, concretely, practically, is Lazarus in my life? What
can I do for that Jesus-in-the-flesh during this Jubilee Year of Mercy?
Amos castiga a personas religiosas “confiadas” (6:1, 5) que
ignoran la caída de la cultura, de la nación, de la religión (6:6). En
la parábola de Jesús esa confianza es la perdición del hombre rico.
Él no lastima o perjudica a Lázaro, tampoco le niega las sobras ni
pide que lo quiten de la entrada de su casa. Y ese es el punto
principal que Jesús menciona. El hombre rico no hizo ningún mal
a Lázaro, pero tampoco hizo algo bueno por Lázaro. Solo después
de la muerte, separados por “un abismo inmenso” (Lucas 16:26),
pudo el hombre rico ver a Lázaro, a quien no se atrevió a verlo
mientras vivió, justo ante sus ojos. Así como los cinco hermanos
que quedaban en la casa del hombre rico (16:27–28), nosotros los
que vivimos en la Iglesia todavía tenemos tiempo para ver a ese
alguien, a Jesús que está a la entrada de nuestra puerta y que es
tiempo para hacer algo. ¿Quién, practica, concreta y
específicamente es Lázaro en mi vida? ¿Qué puedo hacer por ese
Jesús de carne y hueso durante este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia?

[K]eep the commandment without stain
or reproach until the appearance of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
~ 1 Timothy 6:14
[T]e ordeno que cumplas fiel e
irreprochablemente, todo lo mandado,
hasta la venida de nuestro Señor
Jesucristo.
~ 1 Timoteo 6:14
LOOKING BEYOND OURSELVES
The message found in today’s readings is an oft-told story.
Citizen Kane, Daddy Warbucks, and King Midas are only a few of
the familiar fictional characters who thought enormous wealth
could buy happiness and fulfillment. Daddy Warbucks admitted
stepping on a few people in his climb to the top. Kane tried to
buy the printed word and stardom for his young wife, while King
Midas conjured immense wealth and tragedy by his very touch.
We learn clearly in today’s readings that none of this is really
possible. True happiness comes from caring for someone other
than ourselves. It comes from the pursuit of the virtues Paul
described to Timothy: faith, love, gentleness, godliness,
righteousness, and endurance. The Gospel reminds us that we dare
not ignore the needs of others, acting as though we don’t notice
their suffering. God’s call to us is much too clear to disregard for
even one more day.

MIRAR MÁS ALLÁ DE NOSOTROS MISMOS
El mensaje de las lecturas de hoy es una vieja historia. El
Ciudadano Kane, Papi Warbucks y el Rey Midas son sólo unos
pocos de los familiares personajes ficticios que pensaban que con
una enorme fortuna podrían comprar la felicidad y la completa
satisfacción. Papi Warbucks admite haber pisoteado a algunas
personas en su ascenso a la cumbre. Kane trató de comprar la
palabra impresa y el estrellato para su joven esposa, mientras que
el Rey Midas conjura inmensa fortuna y tragedia sólo con su toque.
Aprendemos claramente en las lecturas de hoy que nada
de esto es posible. Alcanzamos la verdadera felicidad cuando nos
interesamos en los demás. Cuando practicamos las virtudes que
Dios describe a Timoteo: fe, amor, mansedumbre, piedad, rectitud
y justicia. El Evangelio nos recuerda que no osemos ignorar las
necesidades de los demás, actuando como si no notáramos su
sufrimiento. El llamado de Dios a nosotros es demasiado claro para
ignorarlo ni un solo día más.
