Dialogo entre Jesús y Satanás
Un día Satanás y Jesús estaban conversando. Satanás acababa de venir justamente del Jardín del Edén y estaba gozándose y jactándose.
¡Sí, señor! Sorprendí al mundo lleno de gente perdida. Les puse una trampa, usé un anzuelo que estoy seguro no podrán resistir. Los tendré a
todos.
"¿Qué vas a hacer con ellos?" - le preguntó Jesús -.
"¡Me voy a divertir! - contestó Satanás -. "Les enseñaré cómo casarse y divorciarse, cómo odiarse y abusar el uno del otro, cómo excederse
bebiendo y fumando, cómo blasfemar. Les enseñaré a inventar armas y bombas para que se maten entre ellos. Les enseñaré a crear programas de televisión que corrompan a los jóvenes. ¡Realmente me divertiré!"
"¿Y qué vas a hacer con ellos cuando hayas terminado?" - preguntó Jesús -.
"¡Los mataré!" - respondió Satanás orgullosamente -.
"¿Cuánto quieres por ellos?" - preguntó Jesús -.
"No, tú no quieres a esa gente. Ellos no son buenos. ¿Por qué los querrías si ellos te odian?
¡Te escupirán y te matarán! ¡¡Tú no quieres a esa gente!!"
"¿Cuánto?" - preguntó nuevamente Jesús -.
"Todas tus lágrimas y toda tu sangre" - Satanás respondió a Jesús burlándose-.
"¡HECHO!" - dijo Jesús -. Entonces, Él pagó el precio.
Esto sucede todos los días, el maligno busca como arrebatar almas de las manos de Dios, es nuestra decisión aceptar o no, Jesús hizo su
elección; nosotros la hicimos desde que nos reconocimos como bautizados en Cristo, nuestro compromiso es cumplir con los
mandamientos y sacramentos de la Ley de Dios, para así alejarnos del pecado y sus consecuencias. Jesús siendo Dios permitió que lo
bautizaran, porque el Bautismo es el más bello y magnífico de los dones de Dios...lo llamamos don, gracia, unción, iluminación, vestidura
de incorruptibilidad, baño de regeneración, sello y todo lo más precioso que hay.
Don: porque es conferido a los que no aportan nada.
Gracia: porque, es dado incluso a culpables.
Bautismo: porque el pecado es sepultado en el agua.
Unción: porque es sagrado y real.
Iluminación: porque es luz resplandeciente.
Vestidura, porque cubre nuestra vergüenza.
Baño, porque lava.
Sello: porque nos guarda y es el signo de la soberanía de Dios sobre todo.
Hoy que recordamos El Bautizo de Jesús reavivemos nuestro compromiso de
conservarnos puros a los ojos de Dios cumpliendo sus mandamientos,
empecemos por el primero Amar a Dios sobre todas las cosas.
Taller de Oración y Vida
Si quieres que una planta tenga vida, debes regarla. Si deseas mostrar que quieres a una persona, debes decírselo.
Si cortas las raíces de un árbol, el árbol se muere. Eso pasa con la oración.
La oración es vida para nuestro espíritu y es el medio para decirle a Dios... Te amo
Taller de Oración y Vida es un programa de liberación interior, un verdadero proceso de humanización y sobre todo un
proyecto cristificante promovido por la oración. Le llamamos TALLER DE ORACIÓN porque igual que en un taller se
aprende a orar con una pedagogía práctica y experimental. Progresivamente se aprende el trato personal, íntimo y
profundo con el Señor de una manera variada y evolutiva. Pero también es TALLER DE VIDA porque se enseña a vivir en
dos dimensiones: en la perspectiva humana, librándose de tristezas y angustias, sanando las heridas de la vida; superando
complejos de culpa, inferioridad, inseguridades, manías persecutorias, en fin recuperando la estabilidad emocional y la
alegría de vivir. Taller de Oración y vida comenzara:
