PASTOR’S COLUMN

Dear Community of Our Lady of Perpetual Help,

As we live our spiritual life, the relationship with God, with the Father, with Jesus, with the Holy Spirit, we will have great moments of consolation. We will experience many mo-ments of joy that could never be fully explained with words. Along with these luminous moments, we will also have moments where we see the face of evil, of death which will lead us to suffer much. But, we must remain close to the Lord!

“It is necessary for us to undergo many hardships to enter the Kingdom of God …” Acts

By remaining close to God in painful moments, His grace comes to us and we raise our heart in prayer to Him.

“I will praise your Name forever … my King and my God …” Psalm 145

The greatest prayer in the eyes of God is to praise Him, thank Him in all we live!

Eternal Father, protect us! Precious Jesus, save us! Holy Spirit, teach us to pray! We thank you, we praise you, we glorify you!

Monsignor Lorenzo

What risks are worth it for children?

In today’s society, parents are o en torn between protec ng their children, and le ng them experience life and even make mistakes. Safety is vitally important, but there is value in learning from experience and from mistakes, too. There may be mes when parents won-der if they have gone too far in their efforts to safeguard children, perhaps inadvertently rendering them children less prepared to handle real-life situa-

ons, for help in discerning when learning from experi-ence may be appropriate see the VIRTUS® ar cle “Safety vs. Resilience in Childhood.” For more informa on, visit h p://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/protec ng/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Ar cles.aspx.

“ME” LAST

Society makes it acceptable to pursue our own happiness without concern for others. As followers of Christ we know that God holds us responsible for meetings others’ needs. When we care for the poor and needy, God will take care of us.

GIVE IT TO GOD

“Never forget that God loves you deeply and cares for you passionately. “Cast all your worries upon

him because he cares for you’” 1 Peter 5:7

 AN OCEAN NAMED RALPH  Human nature confronts newness in a variety of ways. While some bold individuals avoid rou ne and ac vely seek out unusual experiences, a great many of us, fearing the unfamiliar, resist change. Jesus knows perfectly our human nature, and un-derstands the common reluctance to mess with rou-

ne. Nonetheless he proclaims, “Behold, I make all things new.” During the Last Supper, he even goes so far as to pronounce a new commandment: “love one another.” To the observant Jews who are Jesus’ companions, receiving a new commandment might feel as shocking as hearing about a second moon orbi ng the Earth, or a fi h ocean named Ralph. NOT ONE IOTA  Mysteriously, the revolu onary newness of Jesus flows out of his profound obedience to fixed tradi-

on, to God’s law. In the fi h chapter of Ma hew, Jesus promises that he will destroy “not one iota,” not the smallest part of the Hebrew law. Instead, Jesus says, he has come to “fulfill” the law. With his perfect obedience to God’s plan, Jesus fulfills the le er of the law. At the same me, he demonstrates the spirit of the law by freely giving his life for us, out of loving concern for our eternal well-being. As St. Paul tells the Romans, “Love is the fulfillment of the law.” God has given us rules to protect us and help us order our lives properly, but Jesus shows us that love makes the law all but unnecessary. A mother who loves her children has no need to re-mind herself of the commandment “Thou shall not kill.” Because of her loving ins nct to nurture her children, she not only follows the Fi h Command-ment, but transcends it, fulfilling it by wan ng to go further than it demands. She not only avoids mur-der, she protects and sustains life. Jesus’ revolu on of love challenges us to meet each moment, each person, as a new opportunity to sacrifice ourselves in love, doing more than the law requires. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc

 

 UN OCÉANO LLAMADO RAFAEL   La naturaleza humana enfrenta la novedad o lo nuevo de diferentes maneras. Mientras algunas perso-nas atrevidas evitan la ru na y ac vamente buscan experiencias inusuales, una gran mayoría de nosotros, teme a lo desconocido, se resistente al cambio. Jesús conoce perfectamente nuestra naturaleza humana, y comprende la resistencia común de desordenar la ru -na. Sin embargo, él proclama: “Yo hago nuevas todas las cosas”. Durante la Úl ma Cena, él va más allá pro-nunciando un nuevo mandamiento “ámense los unos a los otros”. Para los judíos atentos, que son los com-pañeros de Jesús, recibiendo un mandamiento nuevo podría sen rse tan impactados como escuchar acerca de una segunda luna orbitando la Tierra, o un quinto océano llamado Rafael. NADIE TAN PEQUEÑO   Misteriosamente, la novedad revolucionaria de Je-sús surge de su obediencia profunda para arreglar la tradición, la Ley de Dios. En el quinto capítulo de Ma-teo, Jesús promete que él no ha venido a abolir las enseñanzas de la ley y los profetas y, la más pequeña letra de la ley estará vigente hasta que todo se cum-pla. Con su perfecta obediencia al plan de Dios, Jesús cumple la letra de la ley. Al mismo empo, él demues-tra el espíritu de la ley al ofrecer libremente su vida por nosotros, con gran preocupación amorosa por nuestro eterno bienestar. Como san Pablo les dice a los romanos: “el amor es el cumplimiento de la ley”. Dios nos dio reglas para protegernos y ayudarnos a ordenar nuestras vidas correctamente, pero Jesús nos muestra que el amor hace que la ley sea algo innece-sario. Una madre que ama a sus hijos no ene la nece-sidad de estarse acordando del mandamiento “No ma-tarás”; porque su amoroso ins nto nutre a sus hijos, ella no solo sigue el Quinto Mandamiento, sino que lo trasciende, cumpliéndolo al querer realizar algo más de lo que se pide. Ella no solo evita matar, ella protege y man ene la vida. La revolución de amor de Jesús nos desa a a encontrar cada momento, a cada persona, como una nueva oportunidad a sacrificarnos en amor, haciendo más de lo que la ley requiere. Copyright © J. S.

COLUMNA DEL PASTOR Querida Comunidad de Nuestra Señora del Perpetuo Socorro,

Al vivir nuestra vida espiritual, la relación con Dios, con el Padre, con Jesús, con el Es-píritu Santo, pasaremos momentos de grande consolación. El gozo que viviremos no po-dremos explicar completamente con palabras. Con estos momentos, tambien tendremos momentos donde veremos el rostro del mal, de la muerte que nos llevará a sufrir mucho. ¡Pero, debemos mantenermos cercas del Señor!

“Es necesario que pasemos por muchas tribulcaiones para entrar en el Reino de Dios …” Hechos

Al manteneros cercas de Dios en momentos de dolor, Su gracia viene y podemos le-vanter nuestro corazón en oración a El.

“Benedeciré tu Nombre por siempre … mi Rey y mi Dios …” Salmo 145

¡La oración mas grande a los ojos de Dios es alabarlo, darle gracias en todo lo que vivi-mos!

¡Padre Eterno, protégenos! ¡Precioso Jesús, sálvanos! ¡Espíritu Santo, ensénanos a orar! ¡Te damos gracias, te alabamos, te glorificamos!

¿Qué riesgos valen la pena para los niños?

En la sociedad actual, los padres de familia a menudo enen que decidir entre proteger a sus hijos y dejar que

ellos experimenten la vida e incluso cometan errores. La seguridad es de vital importancia, pero también es vali-oso aprender de la experiencia y de los errores. Pueden exis r ocasiones en que los padres de familia se pregun-ten si han ido demasiado lejos en sus esfuerzos de proteger a los niños, seguramente sin desear que sus hijos estén menos preparados para manejar situaciones de la vida real. Para obtener ayuda para discernir cuándo puede ser apropiado aprender de la experiencia, con-sulte el ar culo VIRTUS® “Safety vs. Resilience in Child-hood” (Seguridad versus resiliencia en la infancia).
