Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Theme: “Priority and Values in Life”

This Sunday we are called as Christians to reflect on what matters in our daily life. If you like

you could name it, “Scale of Preference.” By dictionary definition, scale of preference is the

list of wants or needs that a person writes or comes up with in order of importance. Here, the

person puts his or her most pressing needs or wants at the top of the list and then the less

important needs go to the bottom of the list. My dear brothers and sisters, may I ask you to-

day what is more crucial in your life? Could it be your wife, husband, children, money,

power, high esteem, the death of your enemy, God? … Solomon in our first reading today has

a lot to teach us.

God appears to Solomon in a dream with an offer he can’t refuse. “Ask of me anything and I

will give it to you.” Talk about a blank check! God will give Solomon anything. Money,

power, sex, popularity or beauty can be his for the asking. However, Solomon wants none of

those from God. His first response is crucial—“I am a youth, not knowing at all how to ask.”

Solomon is aware of his limitations. This self-knowledge is the key to his asking for the right

thing from the God who can give him anything. Continued on page 3

(Continúado de la página 1)

Porque aunque Salomón es joven y tiene la asombrosa

responsabilidad de suceder al Rey David, él sabe lo que realmente

necesita: “Dale a tu siervo un corazón para entender cómo

discernir entre el bien y el mal, para quién podría gobernar a tu

pueblo tan maravilloso. ? El poder y la popularidad son fugaces.

La belleza finalmente se marchita con el tiempo, el dinero y el

sexo no sirven de nada frente a la muerte. Pero tener un corazón

comprensivo, uno que busque hacer la voluntad de Dios, es tener

un tesoro que nunca envejezca y que produzca la verdadera paz y

felicidad.

Salomón se encontró en una situación muy parecida a la nuestra.

Tenía que elegir entre una necesidad real y una multitud de deseos

competitivos. ¿Y no es este un aspecto clave de la vida moderna:

necesidades y deseos? Deberíamos tratar de distinguir las

necesidades de los deseos. Cada día estamos constantemente bajo

la influencia de anuncios para confundir necesidades con deseos.

Se nos dice que debemos usar este producto si queremos ser

felices. ¡Sin este coche, esta ropa o esa relación no seremos

humanos! Solomon podría haber pedido lo que quisiera. Pero él

sabía lo que necesitaba para enfrentar el desafío del liderazgo.

Desafortunadamente, nos encontramos en una situación muy

similar a la que Jesús describe en nuestra lectura del evangelio. A

menudo sentimos que la vida es “como una red de arrastre arrojada

al mar que trae una gran cantidad de peces.” El desafío es sentarse

y “recoger los buenos en una canasta y tirar los que no sirven.”

Nuevamente, esto es más fácil decirlo que hacerlo. ¿Es de extrañar

que encontremos a los jóvenes (y los no tan jóvenes) involucrados

en un comportamiento tan destructivo?

A los jóvenes se les dice constantemente que el camino hacia la

felicidad se encuentra en el atractivo de sus cuerpos, como ponerse

tatuajes. En todo esto se ignora la dimensión espiritual de nuestra

existencia. Al final nos quedamos decepcionados y aburridos.

Tenemos un dolor vacío en el interior porque hemos llegado a

poseer a muchos, pero nos falta el que solo puede descansar

nuestro corazón inquieto y nutrir el alma de nuestra condición

“sin alma.”

La vida contemporánea es, en muchos sentidos, una búsqueda de

significado: “para el tesoro escondido en el campo.” No es obvio

El reino a menudo está enterrado. Más personas escuchan reggae,

espectáculos de Broadway, música de alta vida, que las buenas

noticias o ir a misa los domingos. Ahora que Covid-19 ha

Introducido la Misa "Zoom,” será mejor ver la misa en la

televisión que estar presente en las Misas dominicales. Tantas

cosas en el mercado nos prometen la buena vida. Jesús nos

promete no la buena vida en este mundo que pasa, sino la vida

eterna. Por supuesto, comienza aquí en la tierra dependiendo de

las elecciones que hagamos.

En palabras de San Pablo, “Sabemos que al convertir todo en su

bien, Dios coopera con todos los que lo aman, vale la pena a todos

los que ha llamado de acuerdo con su propósito.” Este es un

negocio arriesgado; convirtiendo todo al bien, pero Dios nunca nos

abandonará. Nuestro descanso se encuentra con la gracia salvadora

de Dios. Cada día Dios llega a conocer nuestras necesidades.

Pidamos las cosas correctas.

(Continued from page 1)

For although Solomon is young and has the awesome

responsibility of succeeding King David, he knows what he

truly needs: “Give your servant a heart to understand how to

discern between good and evil, for who could govern this

people of yours that is so great?” Power and popularity are

fleeting. Beauty ultimately withers under time, money and

sex are of no avail in the face of death. But to have an

understanding heart, one that seeks to do the will of God, is

to have a treasure that never grows old and which yields

true peace and happiness.

Solomon found himself in a situation much like our own.

He had to choose between a real need and a multitude of

competing wants. And isn’t this a key aspect of modern

life—needs and wants? We should try to distinguish needs

from wants. Each day we are constantly under the influence

of advertisements to confuse needs with wants. We are told

that we must use this product if we are to be happy. Without

this car, these clothes or that relationship we will not be

human! Solomon could have requested anything he wanted.

But he knew what he needed in order to face the challenge

of leadership.

Unfortunately, we find ourselves in a situation much like

Jesus describes in our gospel reading. We often feel that life

is “like a dragnet cast into the sea that brings in a haul of all

sorts of fish.” The challenge is to sit down and “collect the

good ones in a basket and throw away those that are of no

use.” Again, this is easier said than done. Is it any wonder

that we find the young (and the not so young) involved in so

much destructive behavior?

The young are being constantly told that the road to

happiness is found in the attractiveness of their bodies like

putting on tattoos. Ignored in all this is the spiritual

dimension of our existence. In the end we are left

disappointed and bored. We have an empty ache inside

because we have come to possess the many, but we are

lacking the One who alone can rest our restless heart and

nourish the soul of our “soulless” condition.

Contemporary life is in many ways a search for meaning—

“for the treasure hidden in the field.” It is not obvious. The

Kingdom is often buried. More people listen to reggae,

Broadway shows, high life music, than to the good news or

going to Mass on Sundays. Now that Covid-19 has

introduced “Zoom” Mass, it is going to be better to watch

Mass on TV than being present at Sunday Masses. So many

things in the market place promises us the good life. Jesus

promises us not the good life in this passing world, but

eternal life. Of course, it begins here on earth depending on

the choices we make.

In the words of St. Paul, “We know that by turning

everything to their good, God cooperates with all those who

love Him, worth all those he has called according to his

purpose.” This is risky business; turning everything to the

good—but God will never abandon us. Our rest is met by

God’s saving grace. Each day God comes to know our

needs. Let us ask for the right stuff.

Spiritual Communion Prayer My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

Oración de Comunión Espiritual

Jesús mío, creo que estás presente en el Santísimo Sacramento. Te amo por encima de todas las cosas y deseo recibirte en mi alma. Como ahora no puedo recibirte sacramental-mente, entra al menos espiritualmente en mi corazón. Te abrazo como si ya estuvieras allí, y me uno completamente a ti. Nunca permitas que me separe de ti. Amén.
