A Love We Can Understand
Glory. We will hear about it in Sunday’s Gospel. God
will be glorified and God will glorify Jesus. And will
do it right away.
Fine. But most of us admit we do not understand
what it means to give glory to God or to Jesus. Let
us look.
The word glory could be defined as: very great
praise, honor, or distinction bestowed by others. I
was at a concert by Nickel Creek a number of years
ago in which the audience gave wild, unrestrained
approbation to the three performers, all of it deserved. We thundered appreciation and shouted and
whistled after every song in a two and a half hour
concert. The performers were in their twenties at that
time, but they had complete musical mastery. Half
way through the concert I noticed that I had been
smiling the whole time.
At last, when the three tried to end the concert, the
audience, in effect, threatened to mob them. One of
the performers called out, “Everyone deserves this
experience! We are going to line up the whole audience and let each of you come up here, and have
everybody go crazy over you!” Was this a kind of
“glory”?
But a member of Nickel Creek had written a song
that might show a better meaning of glory. It is called
“The Hand Song.”* Here is the story it tells.
A young boy tore off some garden roses for his
mother. She had been tending these roses with great
care, and he, unknowingly, pulled them to pieces.
The thorns dug into his hands as he brought his present to her. She extracted these thorny reminders of
her roses, lovingly.
And she knew it was love.
It was one she could understand.
He was showing his love
and that’s how he hurt his hands.
Some time later, held close on her lap, the boy listened to stories from the bible. He saw a picture of
Jesus and cried out, Momma, he’s got some scars
just like me.
And he knew it was love.
It was one he could understand.
He was showing his love
and that’s how he hurt his hands.
Finally grown up, the young man
is called by Uncle Sam. His
“number” is drawn, and he
throws himself in front of a friend
to shield him from gunfire. He
gave his life, a deed he had
learned from the roses and the
cross.
And they knew it was love.
It was one they could understand.
He was showing his love,
and that’s how he hurt his hands.
He learned what love was and he gave it on the battlefield. It is a small story, with no stadiums of people
to give applause. Did the boy/man earn “glory”?
Yes. Real love is the essence of human life. Jesus
says so in this Sunday’s Gospel:
I give you a new commandment:
Love one another.
As I have loved you,
so you also should love one another.
This is a love we can understand. Jesus hurt his
hands and his soul on the cross. It took his life. The
pain and death he incurred for others is filled with the
beauty of quiet glory.
Can we imagine this kind of glory? Even if we hurt
our hands?

Las Ramas
Las lecturas de hoy nos hablan del significado de
ser una comunidad de bautizados que bautiza. Somos las ramas de la vida del Resucitado que Dios
ha puesto entre nosotros como fuente de nuestra
vida comunitaria. La única prueba de la Resurrección de Jesús es al amor que compartimos como
miembros de su comunidad. Como a Bernabé, nos
sostiene ese amor para que entre todos se desarrolle nuestro ministerio común.
Como cristianos actuamos según ciertas normas.
Una parte de nuestro ministerio es muy natural, como, ocasionalmente, servir café después de misa; la
fe sólo le profundiza el sentido. Parece muy natural
que un padre de familia comunique su fe a los hijos
a pesar de que esto no suceda siempre. En esta
parroquia, hacemos el intento de proteger este
derecho de los padres por medio de los programas
de la Primera Comunión y la Reconciliación. Los
padres de familia se reúnen desde diciembre a
mayo para orientarse y preparar a los hijos en un
programa excelente que también mejora su relación
con los hijos.
En esta parroquia, la liturgia siempre tiene sus molestias. Por ejemplo, el párroco habla mucho en la
misa y, a veces, inventa la plegaria eucarística. Si la
gente quiere liturgias bellas, ella misma las tendrá
que organizar.
Todos nosotros, por mucho que quermos servir a
los demás, debemos también mejorar nuestra
manera de hacerlo. La comunidad se merece nuestra atención y cariño. Nosotros, planificando el Adviento o la Cuaresma, cantando en los coros,
proclamando lecturas u organizando latas y bolsas
de comida en el depósito de comidas, debemos
guardar y profundizar las prioridades que acompañan estos ministerios porque somos una sola Iglesia
dedicada al propósito de hacer presente el Reino de
Dios en nuestro mundo conflictivo, vivir el amor de
Cristo en la comunidad y dar la vida por el prójimo.
Ser voluntarios no nos da permiso de entregar
cualquier cosita mínima al pueblo reunido. Debemos
tomar en cuenta la oportunidad de mejorar siempre
los dones recibidos de Dios antes de compartirlos
con los demás. Si amamos, regalamos a las personas amadas, no flores artificiales, sino vivas.
En los Hechos de Apóstoles, Lucas presenta a
Bernabé como el modelo de la misión eclesiástica
de preparar a las personas ministeriales.
Page/Página 5
Sin personas como Bernabé, no
aparecerán nunca ministros como San Pablo. la Iglesia no
sería lo que debe ser. Bernabé
nos comunica por su ejemplo,
no sólo la importancia de vivir
un ministerio a beneficio de otros, sino también lo necesario
de enseñar el sentido y la técnica de los ministerios
particulares a otras personas que los llevarán más
adelante. Los ministros de comunión que instruyen
a otros para que se atienda al enfermo, y los
jóvenes confirmados que ayudan a los nuevos candidatos para el sacramento ya están desempeñando la tarea especial de Bernabé.
Todo nuestro ministerio debe ser el signo de las
posibilidades infinitas de la resurrección de Cristo y
de su Espíritu que nos invita a organizar la vida.
¿Ya sabemos quiénes somos y lo que debemos
estar haciendo? Todas las acciones nuestras
deben nutrir la comunidad, como las ramas de una
vid alimentan el corazón de la planta y así producen
su fruto. Existimos como ramas de la comunidad,
celebrando la alegría completa de todos los que
confian en los hermanos. Bernabé ama y por esto
expresa su plena confianza en los hermanos, primero en Pablo y después en Marcos, a pesar de
los prejuicios de otros. Dios nos invita a hacer lo
mismo por el mismo amor que El nos ha dado primero y que funciona siempre como la fuerza que
promueve y hace posible lo que será el Reino de
Dios en este mundo. ¿No es este amor de Dios lo
que anima, crea y libera la nueva humanidad en
Cristo? Por ser Iglesia, ¿no es la expresión constante del amor y confianza de Dios para con los
hermanos nuestro ministerio principal?

STEWARDSHIP CORNER
God proclaims at the end of our
Second Reading from the Book
of Revelations, “Behold, I make
all things new.” That is a good
thing to remember on this Fifth
Sunday of Easter. In the opening verse of this reading from
Holy Scripture, John also says,
“I…saw a new heaven and a
new earth.” Easter reveals this
newness to us, and we must always keep it in mind.
The Greek word used for what is translated as “new” is
kaine. As is normally the case, that particular Greek
word has multiple meanings, one of which is “fresh.” We
are not speaking of a heaven and earth which did not
exist before, but of a heaven and earth which are fresh
in their newness. This is not just a “new” perspective,
but a better one.
If we strive to live out our lives as disciples of Christ, if
we make a complete effort to be His disciples, we inherit
this new heaven. In it, as also indicated in our Second
Reading, God expresses His desire to be in close fellowship with us, and we in turn must desire to be His
people. Being God’s disciple should be the whole purpose of our lives. That is not easily achieved, nor is it
without obstacles and hurdles for us, but it is what our
purpose should be.
