    Una Direccion Definitiva

    ¿Tu fe, la fe que profesas—tu fe te da una dirección y un significado definitivos a tu vida? Y si no, ¿Pórque no?

    Lord, I am not worthy.

    Do we tell the Lord to depart from us because of our unworthiness? Or do we embrace that he comes to us because of our unworthiness?

    Señor, no soy digno.

    ¿Le decimos al Señor que se aparte de nosotros por nuestra indignidad? ¿O abrazamos que él viene a nosotros debido a nuestra indignidad?

    Maybe Things Are Hard Because We Thought Things Would Be Different

    Have you ever stopped to think that maybe, just maybe, that things are as they are, we suffer and get upset and angry because we imagined different? Maybe we lack more trust and confidence in God than we think.

    Quizás las cosas sean difíciles porque pensamos que las cosas serían diferentes

    ¿Alguna vez te has parado a pensar que quizás, solo tal vez, que las cosas son como son, sufrimos y nos enfadamos y nos enojamos porque imaginamos que somos diferentes? Tal vez nos falte más confianza en Dios de lo que pensamos.

    Into the Depths of Humanity

    In celebrating the Baptism of Jesus, we celebrate his entrance into the depths of the human condition. God does not make a list of things we have to do before he’ll consider saving us. He takes the initiative. He comes to us. Even in our pettiness, he approaches us.

    En Lo Profundo de la Humanidad

    Al celebrar el bautismo de Jesús, celebramos su entrada a las profundidades de la condición humana. Dios no hace una lista de cosas que tenemos que hacer antes de que él considere salvarnos; Él toma la iniciativa, viene a nosotros. Incluso en nuestra mezquindad, nos acercamos.

    In the Epiphany of the Lord, God’s unexpected and inconceivable ways of operating are revealed to all.

    In Her Eyes

    In giving us his Son, in giving us his Mother, the Lord has looked upon us.
