“I saw the Spirit come down like a dove from heaven and remain
on him.” A dove is a popular image in Christianity to depict the Holy Spirit. But note that John did not say, “I saw a dove . . .” He
said “I saw the Spirit . . .” A “spirit” is not visible to the human eye. It is discernable in the human heart and mind. John was aware that the Spirit of God was in Je-sus. That Spirit did not come on Jesus and then depart. It remained. John called people to “repent” and bap-tized them with water as a sign they had been washed clean and could reform their lives. He knew that Jesus would baptize them, and us, with the Spirit that is in Him - the Spirit that would call and empower us to go be-yond repentance and reform to seek the greatest good [the “magis”] that God desires and intends for us to achieve for ourselves and for others. The “magis” does not necessarily mean easy and pleasant. For Jesus, in whom the “Spirit remained” it involved torture and cru-cifixion. For us it will at least involve challenges and dif-ficult choices. But if we allow the Spirit to be in us, we will achieve our “magis.”

Word of Life
“If someone shared with you she was pregnant and hadn't ruled out having an abortion, would you know how to re-spond? … When a woman is facing a difficult pregnancy, the reaction of the first person she tells tends to set the tone for her decision-making. How do we respond to our friend in a loving way that is life-affirming for both her and her baby?” Consider the four steps of the L.O.V.E. Approach™*: Listen and Learn, Open Options, Vision and Value, and Extend and Empower.” Read more at www.respectlife.org/l-o-v-e.

LLAMADOS A SER SANTOS Este domingo comienza el Tiempo Ordinario. Las lectu-ras nos hablan sobre la relación de Dios con Israel y la relación de Juan Bautista con Jesús. La relación entre Dios e Israel es tan estrecha, tan íntima, que es por me-diación de Israel que “la salvación [de Dios] llega hasta los últimos rincones de la tierra” (Isaías 49:6). Pero sabe-mos por Juan Bautista que para que Israel cumpla la voluntad de Dios, debe reconocer que Jesús es el Hijo de Dios. Durante estas semanas también llegamos a conocer a Jesús. Comenzamos a entender más profun-damente nuestra relación con Jesús y lo que la misma significa para nosotros, que somos “su pueblo santo” (1 Corintios 1:2). Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
Te voy a convertir en luz de las naciones, para que mi salvación llegue
hasta los últimos rincones de la tierra. — Isaías 49:6b

SAN VICENTE (Siglo III) 22 de enero
San Vicente nació en Zaragoza, España y, debido a su buen uso de la palabra y formación académica, fue nom-brado como coadjutor del obispo Valerio para que le ayu-dara en la predicación, pues el obispo era tartamudo. Una vez ordenado diácono se distinguió por la predicación elocuente y la defensa de la fe. Fue arrestado mientras visitaba a su obispo, preso a causa de la persecución im-pulsada por el emperador Daciano quien, al saber que visitó a su obispo mandó que lo apresaran, haciéndolo caminar desde Zaragoza hasta Valencia. Una vez preso se le sometió a la tortura, no obstante, la tortura no lograba nada y el emperador, lleno de ira, mandó que golpearan a los torturadores. Posteriormente le hizo encerrar en una celda oscura, llena de tiestos filosos para que se cortara sus pies, pero no renunció a su fe cristiana, convirtió al carcelero y cantó himnos de alabanza. Finalmente, puesto que nada lograba contra él, lo encarceló de por vida y ahí, en la soledad de su celda y sus enfermedades encontró la muerte. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
DÓBLELAS CON TIEMPO Cuando usted se encuentre en medio de dificultades y
contradicciones no trate de romperlas, más bien dóblelas con tiempo y suavidad.
