SATURDAY MEN’S PRAYER MEETING

Every Saturday Morning 6:00 am●CCC Chapel

In today’s second reading, St. Paul tells the Corinthians (and

us) that all of our gifts are from God and that they are given,

not for ourselves alone, but for the common good. But the

generosity of God knows no limits — the miracle at Cana

reminds us that whenever we faithfully do as God asks, He

can change our gifts of water into wine!

“Ordinary Time” Is Anything But

Ordinary

The Monday after the first Sunday after Jan-

uary 6 (the Feast of the Epiphany) marks the

first day of "Ordinary Time" in the Catholic

liturgical calendar. Ordinary Time is a fea-

ture of the post-Vatican II liturgical calendar;

before the start of the 1970 liturgical year,

what is now known as Ordinary Time was

referred to as the Sundays after Epiphany and the Sundays after

Pentecost.

Ordinary Time encompasses all of those parts of the Church year

that aren't included in the major seasons (Advent, Christmas, Lent,

and Easter). Because of this, and because of the connotations of

the term "ordinary" in English, many people have the impression

that the Church finds these weeks unimportant. Nothing could be

further from the truth.

Ordinary Time is called ―ordinary‖ because the weeks are num-

bered. The Latin word ordinalis, which refers to numbers in a se-

ries, stems from the Latin word ordo, from which we get the Eng-

lish word order. Thus, Ordinary Time is in fact the ordered life of

the Church. It's appropriate, therefore, that the Gospel for the Se-

cond Sunday of Ordinary Time (which is actually the first Sunday

celebrated in Ordinary Time) always features either John the Bap-

tist’s 's acknowledgment of Christ as the Lamb of God or Christ's

first miracle--the transformation of water into wine at the wedding

at Cana.

This is the new order of the Christian year, one in which Christ,

the Lamb of God, walks among us and transforms our lives. In the

end, there's nothing "ordinary" about that.

rey a quien recriminaba públicamente su conducta deshonesta.

Al Bautista no le importó el peligro que aquello suponía. Por eso

hablaba con claridad y con valentía a cuantos llegaban. A veces eran

los poderosos saduceos, en otras ocasiones fueron los fariseos paga-

dos de sí o los soldados que abusaban de sus poderes. Para todos

tuvo palabras libres y audaces que denunciaban lo torcido de sus

conductas y que era preciso corregir. Qué buena lección para tanto

silencio y tanta cobardía como a menudo hay entre nosotros.

Juan fue fiel a la misión que se le había encomendado: preparar el

camino al Mesías. Ello supuso el fin de su carrera, dar paso a quien

venía detrás de él, ocultarse de modo progresivo para que brillara

quien era la luz verdadera. Sí, el Bautista aceptó con generosidad su

papel secundario y chupando llegó el momento se retiró, no sin an-

tes señalar con claridad a Jesús como el Mesías anunciado, el

Cordero de Dios que quita el pecado del mundo.

Desde entonces su figura ha quedado vinculada a la del Cordero. Un

título cristológico que encierra en sí toda la grandeza del Rey me-

siánico y también su índole kenótica o humillante. El Cordero es, en

efecto, la víctima inmolada en sacrificio a Dios que Juan contempla

en sus visiones apocalípticas desde Patmos. Así en más de una

ocasión nos presenta sentado en el trono a ese glorioso Cordero sac-

rificado, ante el que toda la corte celestial se inclina reverente, y

canta gozosa y agradecida.

Por tanto, es a Jesucristo, víctima inmolada y Señor glorioso, al que

se representa con el Cordero. Todo un símbolo que se repite una y

otra vez, sobre todo en la liturgia eucarística, para que en nuestros

corazones renazca el amor y la gratitud, el deseo de corresponder a

tanto amor como ese título de Cordero de Dios implica. Es, además,

todo un programa de vida, un itinerario marcado con decisión y

claridad por los mismos pasos de Jesús. Aceptemos, pues, la parte

de dolor y de sacrificio que nos corresponda en la vida y en la muer-

te. Ofrezcamos nuestros cuerpos como víctima de holocausto que se

quema, no de una vez sino día a día y momento a momento, en hon-

or y gloria de Dios. Si vivimos así, la esperanza renacerá siempre en

medio de las dificultades, nos sentiremos vinculados al sacrificio de

Cristo y, por consiguiente, asociados también a su triunfo.

JESUCRISTO, VÍCTIMA INMOLADA

Y SEÑOR GLORIOSO Por Antonio García-Moreno

EL ORGULLO DIVINO.- El profeta va dibujando la figura del

Siervo de Yahvé, y a través de diversos poemas va trazando los

perfiles de ese personaje, que ha de salvar al pueblo de Dios. Hoy

nos refiere que ese Siervo es el orgullo de Yahvé, su mayor motivo

de gloria… Se refiere a Cristo, al Verbo encarnado, a Jesús de Naz-

aret. Él es, efectivamente, el mayor reflejo de la grandeza de Dios,

es su imagen perfecta, es la manifestación mejor conseguida del

amor divino, que nos tiene el Padre eterno.

Y nosotros, los cristianos, hemos de plasmar en nuestras vidas la

figura entrañable de Cristo. Ser también manifestación del amor de

Dios y motivo de orgullo para el Señor. Para conseguirlo sólo tene-

mos un camino, el de identificarnos con Cristo. Hemos de esforzar-

nos para imitarle, para vivir como él vivió, para morir como él

murió, para ser como él es: reflejo de la bondad de Dios, orgullo

del Padre eterno.

El Siervo de Yahvé congregaría al resto de Israel, a lo que había

quedado de la casa de Jacob, aquellos hombres desperdigados por

el mundo entero, aquellos que habían conservado en sus corazones

la sencillez y la esperanza. Son los que la Biblia llama "pobres de

Yahvé". Pero Cristo no se limitaría a reunir a ese "resto" preanunci-

ado por los profetas. Él vino con una misión universal, él será, es la

luz para todas las naciones. Y entre todos los pueblos habrá mu-

chos que sigan a Cristo, atraídos por la luminosidad de su palabra.

También en esto hemos de asemejarnos a Cristo. Siendo como luc-

es encendidas en medio de nuestro oscuro mundo. Y es que la mis-

ión de Cristo se prolonga en los que le siguen. Los que creemos en

él somos, hemos de ser, una llamada a la esperanza. Y así cada

cristiano que viva seriamente sus compromisos será como un punto

de luz. De esta forma, todos encendidos, construiremos un mundo

mejor, iluminado por el resplandor del amor de Cristo.

EL CORDERO DE DIOS.- Las orillas del Jordán bullían de

muchedumbres venidas de todas las regiones limítrofes. La fama

del Bautista se extendía cada vez más lejos. Su palabra recia y exi-

gente había llegado hasta las salas palaciegas, hasta el castillo del
