Back in the parish now after the pilgrimage with the seminarians I will resume the explanation on the 12 promises of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Ninth Promise is: I will bless every place in which an image of my Heart is exposed and honored. “HERE IS OUR LORD S PROMISE CONCERNING THE PIC-TURE. " This divine Heart is more and more disclosing to His un-worthy slave its vehement desire of being known, loved and hon-oured by men... He makes known that this desire is so great that HE PROMISES that and that, as He is the source of all blessings, He will abundantly pour these out on all the places where the image of His Sacred Heart will be honoured, because His love urges Him to bestow the inexhaustible riches of His sanctifying and salutary graces upon souls that are of good will." (L 1 31, p. 532) On the other hand St. Margaret Mary speaks of Satan’s effort to prevent this work and so to frustrate our Lord’s

desire to have pictures made. " It seems to me that the devil is extremely afraid lest this good work should succeed be-cause of the glory it will give to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and because of the salvation of many souls, a salvation brought about by this devotion in those who consecrate themselves to Him, in order to love, honor and glorify Him." (L. 49, p. 346) WHY DID OUR LORD ASK THAT PICTURES BE MADE? It is because He knows well our human nature and the great influence pictures have on us. He chose his pierced Heart as the sign of His love, and so He naturally wanted pictures of It to be made, so that they may remind us of Him, of his presence, and above all, of His love, and so draw us to love Him in return. " HE PROMISED ... that, as He is the source of all blessings, He would pour these out abundantly on all places where the image of His lovable Heart was exposed, so that THERE He might be loved and honoured " (L 35, p. 296) Truly, pictures are an excellent means of entering into a living and loving communication with Christ. Quite naturally then will He pour His graces and bless-ings on all the places where his picture is exposed, and He is loved and honoured. Honour, however, does not mean that we just hang up a picture on a wall and leave it at that. It implies that on seeing the picture we turn with our love, our praises, our thanksgiving, our prayers towards Him whom the picture represents. It means above all that we make sincere efforts to please Him and to lead our lives according to the wishes of His Heart. That is why immediately after mentioning the promise of our Lord, St. Margaret Mary adds : " He is looking for empty hearts, devoid of self-love, to fill them with the gentle unction of his ardent charity, so as to transform them entirely into Himself. He is seeking humble and submissive souls that want nothing but the accomplishment of His good pleasure." (L. 131, p. 532) When He speaks of the graces and blessings He will pour on all the places where a picture of His Heart is honoured, it is clear from the very designs our Lord had in manifesting this devotion, that He meant primarily spiritual blessings, But He who spoke so feelingly of the Heavenly Father who knows all our needs and takes loving care of each one of us, He who, in the goodness of his Heart, cured the sick, fed the hungry crowd, consoled the widow of Nain, and called to Himself all those who were overburdened in order to give them relief, will surely give us all the temporal helps that we require and are good for us, unless He judges that the privation of these (namely a cross) is still better for us. All Excerpts from the letters of St. Margaret Mary are taken from a book by Fr. Paul Wenisch, S.J entitled: “the Prom-ises of Our Lord to St. Margaret Mary” (India: 1078) Father Mariano Varela, IVE

PHÚC ÂM: Lc 20, 27-38 "Thiên Chúa không phải là Thiên Chúa của kẻ chết, mà là của kẻ sống". in Mừng Chúa Giêsu Kitô theo Thánh Luca. Khi ấy, có mấy người thuộc phái Sađốc, là những người chối không tin có sự sống lại, đến gần Chúa Giêsu hỏi Người rằng: "Thưa Thầy, Môsê đã viết cho chúng tôi: Nếu ai có một người anh cưới vợ, rồi chết đi mà không có con, thì người em phải cưới người vợ goá đó, để cho anh mình có kẻ nối giòng. Vậy có bảy anh em: người thứ nhất cưới vợ rồi chết mà không có con. Người kế tiếp cưới vợ goá đó, rồi cũng chết không con. Người thứ ba cũng cưới người vợ goá đó. Và tất cả bảy người đều cưới như vậy và đều chết mà không để lại người con nào; sau cùng người thiếu phụ đó cũng chết. Vậy đến ngày sống lại, người đàn bà đó sẽ là vợ ai trong các người ấy? vì tất cả bảy người đều lấy người ấy làm vợ". Chúa Giêsu trả lời họ rằng: "Con cái đời này cưới vợ, lấy chồng, song những ai sẽ xét đáng được dự phần đời sau và được sống lại từ cõi chết, thì sẽ không cưới vợ lấy chồng. Họ sẽ không thể chết nữa: vì họ giống như thiên thần. Họ là con cái Thiên Chúa: vì họ là con cái của sự sống lại. Về vấn đề kẻ chết sống lại, thì Môsê đã cho biết điều ấy trong đoạn nói về Bụi gai, khi ông gọi Chúa là Thiên Chúa Abraham, Thiên Chúa Isaac, và Thiên Chúa Giacóp. Nhưng Thiên Chúa không phải là Thiên Chúa của kẻ chết, mà là của kẻ sống. Vì mọi người đều sống cho Chúa". Đó là lời Chúa.

Sacred Heart of Jesus There are “12 Promises” of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to St. Margaret Mary to encourage all Catholics to know and understand the benefit of practicing the Devotion and to encourage all to take up its immediate practice.

7. “Tepid souls shall become fervent.” 8. “Fervent souls shall rise quickly to great perfection.”

In the gospel Jesus says “be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect” (Mt 5:48). Our Lord desires that we grow in our spiritual lives. By means of the Devotion to the Sacred Heart, Jesus Christ has given us the means to progress in the spiritual life. St. Marga-ret Mary wrote: “I do not know of any devotion in the spiritual life that is better suited to raise a soul in a short time to the highest perfection” (Wenisch, 25).

32º DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO 6 DE NOVIEMBRE 2016

Cada domingo en Misa decimos en el Credo: “Creo en la resurrección de los muertos...”. ¿Qué significa esto? Cuando muere un familiar o un amigo, solemos estar tristes por su muerte. La muerte nos hace pensar en lo desconocido y, muchas veces, nos preguntamos si nues-tro ser querido estará ya en el cielo con Dios, si tendrá que esperar para resucitar, qué pasará con su cuerpo y con su alma, etc. Hoy en día, estamos acostumbrados a darle una respuesta a todo. Sin embargo no podemos dar respuesta a muchas interrogantes sobre la muerte y la vida después de la muerte. Por lo mismo, esta realidad suele incomo-darnos y angustiarnos. De acuerdo con el Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica, los hombres mueren y “los que hayan hecho el bien resucita-rán para la vida, y los que hayan hecho el mal, para la condenación.” Dios nos dio una vida temporal en la tierra para ganarnos la vida sobrenatural. Con la muerte termina nuestra vida en la tierra. ( Juan 5, 29, cf. Dn. 12,2). Cristo resucitó con su propio cuerpo, pero no volvió a una vida terrenal, su cuerpo era ya un cuerpo glorioso, un cuerpo incorruptible, un cuerpo que ya no estaba su-jeto al tiempo y al espacio. Por esto, podía aparecer y desaparecer en los lugares, pero a la vez, seguía siendo un cuerpo humano que podía beber y comer. Dios nos ama a nosotros como seres humanos en cuerpo y en alma. Al resucitar a la vida, vamos a tener un gran gozo en cuerpo y en alma. En Cristo, “todos resucitarán con su propio cuerpo, que tienen ahora” (Concilio de Letrán IV: DS 801), pero este cuerpo será “transfigurado en cuerpo de gloria” (Filipenses 3, 21).

Misa en acción de gracias por la canoniza-ción de Jose Sánchez del Rio.
