Reflection
Reflexión
"Behold, half of my possessions, Lord, I shall give to the poor, and if I
have extorted anything from anyone I shall repay it four times over." Zacchaeus was serious about following Jesus. Maybe at the start he was just
curious when he ran ahead to scale that sycamore tree. But that curiosity
developed into a life-changing experience when Jesus called him by name.
At that moment, when the Lord chose Zacchaeus to be his host for the
evening, the rich tax collector "came down quickly and received him with
joy." And shortly thereafter came his promise of conversion and penance.
Not only would he change his ways; he would make up for his former
ones. And thus Jesus declared, "Today salvation has come to this house."
Penance isn't a popular concept in our modern era. We like to think
about God's great mercy and forgiveness, but it's not so fun to think about
the lingering effects of our sin. When Zacchaeus stole money, people suffered, especially the poor. His conversion to the ways of God wouldn't
make up for the suffering he had in#licted on people. But his choice to go
back and set things aright could make a difference. Sometimes, we are
called to do something similar. Of course it is not always possible to go
back and directly restore the relationships or situations that we have
damaged through our sins. However, it IS always possible to offer a kind
of sacri#ice--often called "making reparation"--for our sin. We can do
something virtuous and offer it to God as a kind of deposit in the universal
"bank" of goodness to make up for the unjust withdrawals we have previously made. In this way, we too can show that we are serious about following the Lord.
Hemos caminado juntos a lo largo del Añ o de la Misericordia, tiempo
en que el Papa Francisco y los obispos de nuestras dió cesis nos han invitado a ver, palpar y vivir la misericordia del Padre. Llamados a ser misericordiosos, la misericordia en la liturgia, las obras espirituales y corporales a merced del amor de Dios entre nosotros. Y aú n no terminamos,
nos faltan tres domingos má s para concluir este Añ o Santo. Hemos escuchado cientos de veces que Dios perdona a todos, porque somos suyos,
que Dios es misericordioso y perdonador. Pero, ahora, viene la pregunta
que debe estar en nuestro corazó n y meditarla siempre. ¿Somos nosotros
de corazó n misericordioso? ¿Se transformó durante este tiempo nuestra
forma de vivir, de pensar y de hacer las cosas?
Les comento esto porque las lecturas de hoy son ricas en recuperar
esa serenidad y con#ianza, que todos necesitamos. La abundancia de
misericordia se percibe en el libro de la Sabidurı́a: "Por eso a los que
caen, los vas corrigiendo poco a poco, los reprendes y les traes a la memoria sus pecados, para que se arrepientan de sus maldades y crean en
ti, Señ or" (Sab 12, 2). Ya desde allá la imagen de Jesú s invitando a Zaqueo
que baje del á rbol porque se hospedarı́a en su casa se vislumbra. Jesú s
tiene palabras amables con el publicano Zaqueo, hombre visto como
pecador en su tiempo. Jesú s es el retrato de Dios que nos consuela en
nuestras tribulaciones. Para alcanzar este consuelo de Dios habrá que ver
en que hemos defraudado a los que nos rodean. Ası́ podremos escuchar
las palabras de Jesú s muy dentro del corazó n. "Hoy ha llegado la
salvació n a esta casa" (Lc 19, 9).

Let Us Pray
The Rose often symbolizes Mary, the Queen of Heaven. In relation to the Blessed Mother it displays perfect love, form, fragrance, and color. For Mary the thorns on the rose remind us
that Our Lord Jesus Christ wore a crown of thorns and gave up
his blood for all humanity, as His Mother, Mary witnessed this
suffering and death !irst hand at the foot of the cross.
