Good People of Holy Cross, Someone has wisely said, “The most difficult decisions in life are not between what is right and what is wrong, but between what is good and what is best.” Ah, there is the rub, ~ How do we weigh life so wisely, deciding what is good, what is bad, what is best? Solomon turned to God and now gives us sage wisdom for our bad-good-best question. A life that is truly wise, as Solomon learned, is one that admits to God it’s great need for God’s wisdom, God’s way, God’s heart, God’s home. Life has priceless treasures all around us and invites us to believe God’s best is bringing good into being. Jesus unearths wisdom that has the power to make us soulfully rich. We are all in some sense the children of Solomon when, in the often confusing journey of life, we ask God to grant us wisdom to see, and a simple trust to believe that in all things, no matter what “it” may be, God is at work. Wealth is good, but wealth spent only on ourselves is not best. Influence can be good, but influence used to lift those beaten down by life’s brutality can be best, and holy. And yes, in more difficult moments, when we fall exhausted from our digging, tired from our searching, and weary from our fishing, God is always at work to bring us to God’s best. Keep being wise! Fr. Jude Michael Gente Buena de Holy Cross, Alguien ha dicho sabiamente: "Las decisiones más difíciles en la vida no son entre lo que está bien y lo que está mal, sino entre lo que es bueno y lo que es mejor". Ahí está el dilema, ~ ¿Cómo pesamos la vida tan sabiamente, decidiendo qué es bueno, qué es malo, qué es lo mejor? Salomón se volvió hacia Dios y ahora nos da una sensata sabiduría para nuestra pregunta mala-buena-mejor. Una vida que es verdaderamente sabia, como lo aprendió Salomón, es una que admite a Dios, que tiene una gran necesidad de la sabiduría de Dios, el camino de Dios, el corazón de Dios, el hogar de Dios. La vida tiene tesoros invaluables a nuestro alrededor y nos invita a creer que lo mejor de Dios es traer el bien a la existencia. Jesús descubre la sabiduría que tiene el poder de hacernos ricos en el alma. Todos somos, en cierto sentido, hijos de Salomón cuando, en el viaje a menudo confuso de la vida, le pedimos a Dios que nos conceda sabiduría para ver, y una simple confianza para creer que en todas las cosas, sin importar lo que "sea", Dios está en el trabajo. La riqueza es buena, pero la riqueza gastada solo en nosotros mismos no es la mejor. La influencia puede ser buena, pero la influencia utilizada para levantar a los golpeados por la brutalidad de la vida puede ser mejor y sagrada. Y sí, en los momentos más difíciles, cuando nos cansamos de nuestra excavación, cansados de nuestra búsqueda y cansados de nuestra pesca, Dios siempre está trabajando para llevarnos a lo mejor de Dios. ¡Sigue siendo sabio! Padre Jude Michael

PRAYERS Prayer During A Health Crisis

Compassionate and Loving Father,

In the face of confusion and concern

impart to us the calm of your presence.

In You allow us to find hope and healing.

Be with those who serve the sick and

give them Your caring hands.

Be with those who lead and

give them Your Spirit of wisdom.

Be with those who have fallen ill and

give them Your comforting heart.

Wrap your arms around our world

and hold us in your love.

Allow us at this time of trial to then

serve as instruments of that love

to all we meet.

We ask this in Your Name.

Amen.
