Good stewards must not argue who is the most
important. Today’s Gospel says clearly that those who
aspire to greatness must humbly serve the needs of all.
Even Jesus came not to be served, but to serve.
God’s work of salvation is the focus of this weekend’s
readings. From the prophetic event of Isaiah to Jesus’
understanding of the human condition in Hebrews,
concluding with Jesus paying our ransom in Mark, God is
in control. There may be failings and misunderstandings
along the way. We may move away from God, but at our
conversion, God leads us back. Like James and John, we
may let greed and power blur our vision of what Jesus
wants us to know about the Kingdom; but tirelessly we are
taught and re-taught what life in the Kingdom will be.
Jesus has paid our ransom to ensure that we will share in
the Kingdom. It is not unusual to think of Jesus’ ransom
as a punishment that he endured. However, it is more
accurate, and more like Jesus, for us to recognize ransom
as God’s gift to us.

Faith. Your donations to this program will help allow Catholic
in America to spread the good news about our Catholic faith
and our diocese to many in the area.
Catholic in America can be watched Sundays at 11:00am on
WJTC, channel 44 and at 12:00pm on WMBB channel 13.

LA PALABRA DE DIOS HOY
El Evangelio de la semana pasada nos ofreció la historia del joven
que le preguntó al Señor qué más necesitaba hacer para entrar en
la vida eterna. Esta semana Santiago y Juan le preguntan al Señor
no qué más pueden hacer, sino qué más puede Jesús hacer por
ellos, ya que son discípulos tan fieles. El Señor encara en seguida
la arrogancia de ellos y les hace saber con mucha certeza que
quien quiera ser grande debe ser el servidor de los demás. Una
vez más lo que nuestra sociedad valúa, el Evangelio lo vira al revés. Uno de los mejores ejemplos de lo que significa servir se encuentra en uno de los títulos que se usan
para describir al papa: “Siervo de los siervos de Dios”. Aun el que está a la cabeza de
la jerarquía en la Iglesia es llamado a servir a los demás. Al escuchar las lecturas de
hoy oremos para que podamos continuar como verdaderos servidores cristianos.
