Secret 2 &ndash; Christ is not alone. (continued) Christ is present in the Eucharist with His body and blood together with his soul and divinity. What does that mean? --- A deeper look at another mystery, the mystery of the Incarnation, provided the answer. Like many Catholics, I was familiar with the term Incarnation, but all I knew about it was that it referred to the moment in time when the second person of the Trinity &ldquo;became incarnate,&rdquo; meaning, &ldquo;took on human flesh&rdquo; &ndash; the Son of God became man. The Church teaches that at the words of Mary&rsquo;s Fiat: &ldquo;Let it be done to me according to your word,&rdquo; a human nature, with a body and a soul, was created from her through the power of the Holy Spirit and was fused forever to the divine nature of the second person of the Trinity. As the Catechism explains: [This] does not mean that Jesus Christ is part God and part man, nor does it imply that he is the result of a confused mixture of the divine and the human. He became truly man while remaining truly God. (CCC. #464) Jesus Christ is one divine person with two distinct natures &ndash; one totally human, one totally divine. These two natures are so inseparable that the divine person of Christ &ldquo;remained united to his soul and body, even when these were separated from each other by death&rdquo; (CCC #650); and, when the Father raised Christ up, He &ldquo;perfectly introduced His son&rsquo;s humanity, including His body, into the Trinity&rdquo; (CCC #648). How does this help us understand Christ&rsquo;s presence in the Eucharist? (pp. 21-22) To be continued. Christ the King and Eucharistic Revival Blessings, Fr.

Como muchos Cat&oacute;licos, estaba familiarizado con el t&eacute;rmino Encarnaci&oacute;n, pero todo lo que sab&iacute;a sobre &eacute;l era que se refer&iacute;a al momento cuando la segunda persona de la Trinidad &ldquo;se hizo carne,&rdquo; es decir, asumi&oacute; una naturaleza humana - el Hijo de Dios se hizo hombre. La Iglesia nos ense&ntilde;a que a las palabras de obediencia de Mari&aacute;: &ldquo;H&aacute;gase en m&iacute; seg&uacute;n tu palabra,&rdquo; se cre&oacute; de ella una naturaleza humana por el poder del Esp&iacute;ritu Santo, con un cuerpo y una alma, y fue fundida por siempre a la naturaleza divina de la segunda persona de la Trinidad. Como lo explica el Catecismo , [Esto] no significa que Jesuscristo sea en parte Dios y en parte hombre, ni que sea el resultado de una mezcla confusa entre lo divino y lo humano. &Eacute;l se hizo verdaderamente hombre sin dejar de ser verdaderamente Dios. (CCC. #464) Jesucristo es una persona divina con dos naturalezas distintas - una totalmente humana, y una totalmente divina. Estas dos naturalezas son tan inseparables que la persona divina de Cristo &ldquo;permanece unida a su alma y cuerpo, aun cuando estos fueron separados por la muerte&rdquo; (CCC #650); y cuando el Padre resucit&oacute; a Cristo, &ldquo;introdujo perfectamente la humanidad de Su Hijo, incluyendo Su cuerpo, en la Trinidad&rdquo; (CCC, # 648). &iquest;C&oacute;mo nos ayuda esto a comprender la presencia de Cristo en la Eucarist&iacute;a?

Jesus &hellip; You come to me in Holy Communion, You who together with the Father and the Holy Spirit have deigned to dwell in the little heaven of my heart. &hellip; St. Faustina, Diary, 486 When He becomes present for us in the Eucharist, Christ is not alone. I don&rsquo;t know what you learned, but I never really learned this. Through years of CCD classes, Catholic high school, Catholic college, and homilies at daily Mass, no one ever even suggested to me that Christ does not become present alone. I was so proud of myself. I thought I understood all there was to know about the Eucharist. I not only understood Transubstantiation; I could even spell it. I had learned that this strange word literally means a crossing of one substance to another, and that, as applied to the Eucharist, it refers to the most unique and complete crossing imaginable &ndash; that from the moment of consecration, the entire substance of the bread and wine ceases to exist, and that what still appears to our senses as bread and wine is now the body and blood of Christ: &ldquo;By the consecration of the bread and wine there takes place a change of the whole substance of the bread into the substance of the body of Christ our Lord and of the whole substance of the wine into the substance of His blood.&rdquo; Council of Trent, CCC, #1376 I could quote the teaching, but I didn&rsquo;t really understand it, didn&rsquo;t realize how much more there was to it, and had no clue that Christ is not alone. Only when I started studying the Council of Trent&rsquo;s definition of the Eucharist did the veil start to lift. The Council teaches that the Eucharist contains &ldquo;the body and blood, together with the soul and divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ.&rdquo; Together with the soul and divinity! Christ is present in the Eucharist with His body and blood together with His soul and divinity. What does that mean? (pp. 19-21) To be continued. Eucharistic Revival Blessings, Fr.

A lo largo de los a&ntilde;os de clases de Religi&oacute;n, Escuela Secundaria Cat&oacute;lica, Universidad Cat&oacute;lica, y homil&iacute;as en la Misa diaria, nunca nadie me sugiri&oacute; que Cristo no se presenta solo. Yo estaba tan orgulloso de mi mismo. Pens&eacute; que hab&iacute;a entendido todo lo que hab&iacute;a que saber sobre la Sagrada Eucarist&iacute;a. Yo no s&oacute;lo comprend&iacute; la Transustanciaci&oacute;n, incluso pod&iacute;a deletrearla. Aprend&iacute; que esta palabra tan extra&ntilde;a significa literalmente el cruce de una substancia a otra, y que, al aplicarlo a la Eucarist&iacute;a, se refiere al cruce m&aacute;s &uacute;nico y completo que podamos imaginar &ndash; que desde el momento de la consagraci&oacute;n, la substancia total del pan y el vino dejan de existir, y que lo que aun aparece ante nuestros sentidos como pan y vino es ahora el cuerpo y la sangre de Cristo: Por la consagraci&oacute;n del pan y del vino se opera el cambio de toda la substancia del pan en la substancia del Cuerpo de Cristo nuestro Se&ntilde;or y de toda la substancia del vino en la sustancia de Su sangre. Concilio de Trento, CCC, #1376 Yo pod&iacute;a citar textualmente la ense&ntilde;anza, pero realmente no la entend&iacute;a, no me daba cuenta que hab&iacute;a algo m&aacute;s profundo en ella, y no ten&iacute;a ni idea de que Cristo no estaba solo. Fue solo cuando comenc&eacute; a estudiar la definici&oacute;n de la Eucarist&iacute;a del Concilio de Trento, cuando el velo comenz&oacute; a levantarse. El Concilio ense&ntilde;a que la Eucarist&iacute;a contiene &ldquo;el cuerpo y la sangre, junto con el alma y la divinidad, de nuestro Se&ntilde;or Jesucristo.&rdquo; &iexcl;Junto con el alma y la divinidad!

When they receive Communion standing, it is strongly recommended that, coming up in procession, they should make a sign of reverence before receiving the Sacrament. (Inaestimabile Donum, 11) As Pope John Paul II points out, &ldquo;we need to cultivate a lively awareness of Christ&rsquo;s real presence,&rdquo; and we should take care &ldquo;to show that awareness through tone of voice, gestures, posture and bearing.&rdquo; Pope Benedict XVI also discusses this issue of how to receive, emphasizing that, instead of arguing about whether it is better to receive kneeling or standing, in the hand or on the tongue, we need to focus on the spirit of reverence with which the Early Fathers of the Church received Communion. First urging priests to &ldquo;exercise tolerance and to recognize the decision of each person,&rdquo; he goes on to ask everyone &ldquo;to exercise the same tolerance and not to cast aspersions on anyone who may have opted for this or that way of doing it&rdquo; What is important is reverence: It is quite wrong to argue about this of that form of behavior. We should be concerned only to argue in favor of &hellip; a reverence in the heart, an inner submission before the mystery of God. pp.11-13 (To be continued.) Eucharistic Revival Blessings, Fr.

Cuando reciben la Comuni&oacute;n de pie, se recomienda encarecidamente que, al acercarse en procesi&oacute;n, deben hacer una se&ntilde;al de reverencia antes de recibir el Sacramento. (Inaestimabile Donum, 11) Como lo se&ntilde;alara el Papa Juan Pablo II, &ldquo;Necesitamos cultivar una conciencia viva sobre la presencia real de Cristo,&rdquo; y deber&iacute;amos ser cuidadosos en &ldquo;mostrar esa conciencia a trav&eacute;s del tono de nuestra voz, gestos, posturas y porte.&rdquo; El Papa Benedicto XVI tambi&eacute;n trata el asunto con relaci&oacute;n a como recibir la Comuni&oacute;n, enfatizando que, en lugar de deliberar si es mejor recibirla de rodillas o de pie, en la mano o en la lengua, debemos m&aacute;s bien enfocarnos en el esp&iacute;ritu de reverencia con el cual recibieron la Comuni&oacute;n los primeros Padres de la Iglesia. Primero urgiendo a los sacerdotes a &ldquo;ejercer tolerancia y aceptar la decisi&oacute;n de cada persona,&rdquo; y contin&uacute;a pidiendo a cada uno &ldquo;ejercer la misma tolerancia y no poner a nadie en entredicho por haber optado por esta o aquella manera de recibir.&rdquo; Lo que importa es la reverencia: Es un error discutir sobre esta o aquella manera de comportarse. S&oacute;lo deber&iacute;amos preocuparnos de discutir a favor de &hellip; una reverencia en el coraz&oacute;n, una sumisi&oacute;n interior ante el misterio de Dios.

The most dramatic scene is the third visit, when the e apel comes with the Eu- charist. Suspending the lost and the chalice in the air, he throws himself prostrate on the ground and has the children repeat the following prayer three times:<br /><br />Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly. rofoundly. I offer you the most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifference by which He Himself is offended. And through the infinite merits of His most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of You the conversion of poor sinners.<br /><br />An angel prostrates himself on the ground! We stand in line with our minds filled with distractions....But an angel, a pure spirit, who lives constantly in the intimate presence of God, prostrates himself before the Eucharist in adoration! That's a pretty strong message. It was so strong that young Francisco spent the rest of his short life trying to console God in the Eucharist. Every moment he could, he spent in front of the Blessed Sacra- ment, trying to console God for the indifferent way that people respond to the Eucharist.<br /><br />So there's our invitation; there's the contrast for us. We can treat God as a dead object, or we can prostrate our whole beings in front of Him, in adoration, in gratitude, in love, in reparation. I'm not suggesting that we all run up and throw ourselves on our faces in front of the Eucharist the next time we receive, But interiorly we can. Whether we stand or kneel to receive, we can always in our hearts, minds and souls, be prostrate in adoration of the living God in the Eucharist.<br /><br />pp. 9-11 (to be continued).</div>   					 				</td>				<td class="wsite-multicol-col" style="width:50%; padding:0 15px;"> 					 						  <div class="paragraph"><u><span style="color:rgb(34, 34, 34)">7 SECRETOS DE LA EUCARISTIA, de Vinny Flynn (en continuaci&oacute;n)<br /></span></u>En 1916, como el a&ntilde;o de preparaci&oacute;n para las apariciones de Nuestra Se&ntilde;ora en Fatima, el Angel de Paz se apareci&oacute; tres veces a Lucia, Jacinta y Francisco.

We don&rsquo;t fully recognize who this is whom we receive in the Eucharist, why He has given us this unique sacrament, or what kind of response he expects from us. At each Mass, the priest says, &ldquo;Behold the Lamb of God,&rdquo; an echo of what John the Baptist said to two of his disciples as Jesus walked by. When the disciples then began to follow Jesus, they asked Him, &ldquo;Where do you live?&rdquo; and He replied, &ldquo;Come and see&rdquo; (Jn 1:39). That&rsquo;s the invitation I&rsquo;d like to pass along through this book, a simple invitation to take a closer look at the Eucharist, to come and see where the Master lives beyond the veil. (pp. 3-5) SECRET 1 The Eucharist is alive When I come to a human heart in Holy Communion, my hands are full of all kinds of graces which I want to give to the soul, but souls do not even pay attention to me. They leave me to myself and busy themselves with other things. &hellip; They treat me as a dead object. St. Faustina, Diary, 1385 The Eucharist is alive. &hellip;The host that we receive is not a thing! It&rsquo;s not a wafer! It&rsquo;s not bread! It&rsquo;s a person &ndash; and He&rsquo;s alive! I&rsquo;m afraid that, in many of our churches, a stranger in our midst, witnessing a typical Sunday liturgy, would not realize this, but would simply see a bunch of people get up from their seats, wait in line, receive a piece of bread, and then go back to their seats.

Aun cuando se nos han dado todos los detalles necesarios en las ense&ntilde;anzas de la Iglesia, a&uacute;n no hemos sido capaces de entender. No reconocemos del todo a quien recibimos en la Eucarist&iacute;a, porqu&eacute; se nos ha dado este sacramento tan extraordinario, o que tipo de respuesta &Eacute;l espera de nosotros. En cada Misa el sacerdote dice: &ldquo;&Eacute;ste es el Cordero de Dios,&rdquo; un eco de lo que Juan el Bautista le dijo a dos de sus disc&iacute;pulos cuando Jes&uacute;s pasaba por done &eacute;l estaba. Cuando los disc&iacute;pulos comenzaron a seguir a Jes&uacute;s, ellos le preguntaron: &ldquo;&iquest;D&oacute;nde vives?&rdquo; Y &Eacute;l les contesto: &ldquo;Venid y lo ver&eacute;is&rdquo; (Jn 1:39 REV). &Eacute;sa es la invitaci&oacute;n que me gustar&iacute;a extender a ustedes a trav&eacute;s de este libro, una invitaci&oacute;n sencilla para dar una mirada m&aacute;s de cerca a la Eucarist&iacute;a, para venir y ver donde vive el Maestro m&aacute;s all&aacute; del velo. (pp. 3-5) SECRETO 1 La Eucarist&iacute;a y salive Cuando llego a un coraz&oacute;n humano en la Santa Comuni&oacute;n, tengo las manos llenas de toda clase de gracias y deseo d&aacute;rselas al alma, pero las almas ni siquiera Me prestan atenci&oacute;n. Me dejan solo y se ocupan de otras cosas &hellip; Me tratan como una cosa muerta. Diario de Sta. Faustina, 1385 La Eucarist&iacute;a est&aacute; viva. &hellip; &iexcl;La Hostia que recibimos no es una cosa! &iexcl;No es una galleta! &iexcl;No es pan! &iexcl;Es una persona &ndash; y &Eacute;l est&aacute; vivo! Temo que en muchas de nuestras iglesias hay alg&uacute;n extra&ntilde;o en medio de nosotros, presenciando una liturgia t&iacute;pica de domingo, y no se d&eacute; cuenta de eso, sino simplemente vea a un grupo de personas que se levantan de sus asientos, esperan en fila, reciben un pedazo de pan, y despu&eacute;s regresan a sus asientos.

If you would like your own copy, it is available in our St. Marello bookstore in English and Spanish. Author&rsquo;s Note &ldquo;Canonized by Pope John Paul II, April 30, 2,000, Faustina became the first saint of the Jubilee Year that ushered in the third millennium. In his homily, the pope repeatedly referred to her as &lsquo;a gift of God for our time.&rsquo; Known as the &lsquo;Apostle of Divine Mercy,&rsquo; she is also one of the greatest saints of the Eucharist. Her religious name is Maria Faustina Kowalska of the Most Blessed Sacrament, and almost every page of her Diary contains some reference to the Eucharist. Faustina called the Eucharist the &lsquo;secret of my sanctity.&rsquo; May this book help you to discover why and to let the Eucharist lead you to sanctity as well. (p. xix) FOREWARD &ndash; Beyond the Veil O Jesus, hidden God, my heart perceives You though veils hide You. St. Faustina, Diary, 524 7 Secrets? Don&rsquo;t be misled by the number 7 in the title. I don&rsquo;t mean to imply that there are only 7 or that there is any magic number of truths about the Eucharist. &hellip;The word, &lsquo;secrets&rsquo; needs some clarification, too. There&rsquo;s nothing really new here, no real secrets. The truths I want to share with you have always been at the heart of the Church, embraced as precious gems by theologians, saints and mystics. &hellip; I call them secrets because, for some reason, they don&rsquo;t seem to have been passed on to the average lay person in a way that would enable us to really understand them and incorporate them into our daily lives.&rdquo; (p. 2) (To be continued) Eucharistic Revival Blessings, Fr. John</div>   					 				</td>				<td class="wsite-multicol-col" style="width:50%; padding:0 15px;"> 					 						  <div class="paragraph">&#8203;Un amigo m&iacute;o me recomend&oacute; recientemente un buen libro sobre la Eucarist&iacute;a. Es breve y al punto. No pude dejar de leerlo. En mi pr&oacute;xima serie del Rinc&oacute;n del P&aacute;rroco, compartir&eacute; citas de 7 Secretos del la Eucarist&iacute;a de Viny Flynn, publicado por primera vez en 2006. Si usted desea su propia copia, est&aacute; disponible en nuestra librer&iacute;a de St. Marello en ingl&eacute;s y espa&ntilde;ol. Nota Del Autor El Papa Juan Pablo II canonizo a Santa Faustina el 30 de abril del a&ntilde;o 2000. Ella fue la primera santa del A&ntilde;o del Jubileo que trajo el tercer milenio. En su homil&iacute;a, el Papa se refer&iacute;a repetidamente a ella como &ldquo;un regalo de Dios para nuestra &eacute;poca.&rdquo; Conocida como la &ldquo;Ap&oacute;stol de la Divina Misericordia,&rdquo; ella es tambi&eacute;n una de las santas m&aacute;s grandes de la Eucarist&iacute;a. Su nombre religioso es &ldquo;Maria Faustina Kowalska del Sant&iacute;simo Sacramento,&rdquo; y casi cada p&aacute;gina de su diario contiene alguna referencia a la Sagrada Eucarist&iacute;a. Faustina llamaba a la Eucarist&iacute;a el &ldquo;secreto de mi santidad.&rdquo; Espero que este libro le ayude a descubrir por qu&eacute; es el secreto de la santidad de Sta. Faustina, y a permitir que la Eucarist&iacute;a lo conduzca tambi&eacute;n a usted a la santidad. (p&aacute;gina xvii &ndash; xviii) PREFACIO &ndash; M&aacute;s all&aacute; del Velo Oh Jes&uacute;s, Dios oculto, Mi coraz&oacute;n Te siente, Aunque Te cubren los velos. Diario de Sta. Faustina, 524 No se confunda con el n&uacute;mero 7 en el t&iacute;tulo. No quiero decir que existen solo 7 o cualquier n&uacute;mero m&aacute;gico de verdades acerca de la Eucarist&iacute;a. &hellip;La palabra &ldquo;secretos&rdquo; tambi&eacute;n necesita una aclaratoria. No hay nada realmente nuevo aqu&iacute;, no hay ning&uacute;n secreto verdadero. Las verdades que quiero compartir con ustedes han estado siempre en el coraz&oacute;n de la Iglesia, atesoradas por los te&oacute;logos, los santos y los m&iacute;sticos como piedras preciosas. &hellip;Los llamo secretos porque, por alguna raz&oacute;n, no parece que hayan pasado al laico promedio de una manera que nos permita comprenderlos realmente e incorporarlos a nuestra vida diaria.

Mary and Joseph model for us the true devotion we ought to have for Jesus.<br />Mothers&rsquo; Day is on May 12. I would like to highlight three opportunities that will enhance our celebration of our mothers this year.<br />&nbsp;<br />ONE:&nbsp; Go see the movie, Breakthrough! It is an excellent movie that tells the true story of a mother&rsquo;s tenacious love and faith in the face of the terrible tragedy of the drowning of her 14-year-old son. It also shows the faith of an entire community and can certainly build the faith of those who experience this story.<br />&nbsp;<br />TWO: Plan to participate in the Heart of California Walk for Life! It is on the day before Mothers&rsquo; Day, May 11th. Come to the Saturday morning Mass at 8 am. Gather in the parking lot near St. Marello Bookstore at 9 am to begin the walk to Town and Country Park Pavilion. The Rally begins at 10 am. Come and witness publicly to the Truth of the God-given dignity of human life from conception to natural death.<br />&nbsp;<br />THREE: Support the life-saving and mother- supporting work of our parish pro-life ministry, Fe y Esperanza! Corsages and pro-life pins will reward your donations after all Mothers&rsquo; Day Masses, May 11-12.<br />&nbsp;<br />Easter Blessings, Fr.

La Iglesia tradicionalmente dedica todo el mes de mayo a honrar a Mar&iacute;a. El mes comienza con un homenaje especial a San Jos&eacute;, patrono de los trabajadores. San Jos&eacute; modela para nosotros la verdadera devoci&oacute;n que debemos tener por Mar&iacute;a, la madre de Jes&uacute;s y la madre de los disc&iacute;pulos de Jes&uacute;s. (Mira Rev. 12:17). Mar&iacute;a y Jos&eacute; modelan para nosotros la verdadera devoci&oacute;n que debemos tener por Jes&uacute;s.<br />El d&iacute;a de las Madres es el 12 de mayo. Me gustar&iacute;a destacar tres oportunidades que mejorar&aacute;n nuestra celebraci&oacute;n de nuestras madres este a&ntilde;o.<br />UNO: Ve a ver la pel&iacute;cula, &iexcl;Avance! Es una excelente pel&iacute;cula que narra la verdadera historia del amor y la fe tenaces de una madre frente a la terrible tragedia del ahogamiento de su hijo de 14 a&ntilde;os. Tambi&eacute;n muestra la fe de toda una comunidad y ciertamente puede edificar la fe de aquellos que experimentan esta historia.<br />DOS: &iexcl;Participar en el La Caminata de la Vida del Coraz&oacute;n de California! Es el d&iacute;a antes del d&iacute;a de la Madre, 11 de mayo. Ven a la Misa del s&aacute;bado por la ma&ntilde;ana a las 8 am. Re&uacute;nanse en el estacionamiento cerca de la librer&iacute;a St. Marello a las 9 de la ma&ntilde;ana para comenzar la caminata al Anfiteatro del Parque&nbsp; Town and Country. El Rally comienza a las 10 de la ma&ntilde;ana. Vengan y testimonien p&uacute;blicamente la verdad de la dignidad de la vida humana dada por Dios desde la concepci&oacute;n hasta la muerte natural.<br />TRES: Apoye la labor que salva vidas y apoye el trabajo de las madres de nuestro Ministerio de vida parroquial, &iexcl;Fe y Esperanza! Los corsages y alfileres pro-vida recompensar&aacute;n tus donaciones despu&eacute;s de todas las Misas del d&iacute;a de la Madre, Mayo 11-12.<br />&nbsp;<br />Bendiciones, Fr.

Today is the Octave of Easter and Divine Mercy Sunday. We are solemnly celebrating the great Mystery of our Salvation. &ldquo;The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners&rdquo; (1 Timothy 1:15). &ldquo;Yes, God so loved the world that he gave his only Son that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life&rdquo; (John 3:16). We are now living in the End Times, the Age of Divine Mercy. Through Jesus&rsquo; Incarnation, Passion, Death, Resurrection, Gift of the Holy Spirit, and founding of the Church, Mercy and Eternal life in God&rsquo;s Kingdom are being offered to every human being from Adam and Eve to the end of history. Let us receive the Gift, then celebrate and live our new life in Christ! Yet there are still forces at work that are trying to prevent this. What are we up against? The Catechism puts it this way. &ldquo;God created man in his image and established him in his friendship (396). &hellip;Man, tempted by the devil, let his trust in his Creator die in his heart and, abusing his freedom, disobeyed God&rsquo;s command. &hellip;All subsequent sin would be disobedience toward God and lack of trust in his goodness (397). &hellip;Scripture portrays the tragic consequences of this first disobedience. &hellip;They became afraid of the God of whom they have conceived a distorted image &ndash; that of a God jealous of his prerogatives (399). Jesus, who is true God and true man, suffered and died for us. He rose from the dead to offer us he and the Father&rsquo;s Peace, Pardon, Spirit, Friendship, Mercy and Mission. Jesus has spoken to the world through Saint Faustina, &ldquo;My child, all your sins have not wounded My Heart as painfully as your lack of trust does &ndash; that after so many efforts of My love and mercy, you should still doubt my goodness&rdquo; (Diary 1486). &hellip;&rdquo;The graces of my mercy are drawn by means of one vessel only, and that is &ndash; trust. The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive. Souls that trust boundlessly are a great comfort to Me&rdquo; (Diary 1578). JESUS, I TRUST IN YOU!<br />&nbsp;<br />Divine Mercy Blessings, Fr.

Hoy es la Octava de Pascua y el Domingo de la Divina Misericordia. Celebramos solemnemente el gran Misterio de nuestra Salvaci&oacute;n. &ldquo;Esta doctrina es segura y debe ser aceptada sin reservas: Jesucristo vino al mundo para salvar a los pecadores.&rdquo; (1 Timoteo 1:15) &ldquo;&iexcl;Tanto am&oacute; Dios al mundo que le dio a su Hijo &Uacute;nico, para que todo el que crea en &eacute;l no perezca, sino que tenga vida eterna.&rdquo; (Juan 3:16) Ahora estamos viviendo en la era final de la Divina Misericordia. A trav&eacute;s de la Encarnaci&oacute;n de Jes&uacute;s, la Pasi&oacute;n, la Muerte, la Resurrecci&oacute;n, el Don del Esp&iacute;ritu Santo y la fundaci&oacute;n de la Iglesia, la misericordia y la vida eterna en el Reino de Dios se ofrecen a todos los seres humanos desde Ad&aacute;n y Eva hasta el fin de la historia. &iexcl;Recibamos el regalo, luego celebremos y vivamos nuestra nueva vida en Cristo! Sin embargo, todav&iacute;a hay fuerzas que est&aacute;n intentando impedir esto. &iquest;Contra qu&eacute; nos enfrentamos? El Catecismo lo expresa de esta manera. &ldquo;Dios cre&oacute; al hombre a su imagen y lo estableci&oacute; en su amistad. (396) ... El hombre, tentado por el diablo, dej&oacute; morir en su coraz&oacute;n la confianza hacia su creador y, abusando de su libertad,&nbsp;desobedeci&oacute;&nbsp;al mandamiento de Dios. En adelante, todo pecado ser&aacute; una desobediencia a Dios y una falta de confianza en su bondad. (397) ... La Escritura muestra las consecuencias dram&aacute;ticas de esta primera desobediencia. &hellip; Tienen miedo de Dios de quien han concebido una falsa imagen, la de un Dios celoso de sus prerrogativas. (399) Jes&uacute;s, que es verdadero Dios y verdadero hombre, sufri&oacute; y muri&oacute; por nosotros. Se levant&oacute; de entre los muertos para ofrecernos a &eacute;l y a la Paz del Padre, el perd&oacute;n, el esp&iacute;ritu, la amistad, la misericordia y la misi&oacute;n. Jes&uacute;s ha hablado al mundo a trav&eacute;s de Santa Faustina, &ldquo;Has de saber, oh alma, que todos tus pecados no han herido tan dolorosamente Mi coraz&oacute;n como tu actual desconfianza - que despu&eacute;s de tantos esfuerzos de Mi amor y Mi misericordia no te f&iacute;as de Mi bondad"&nbsp; (Diario 1486). ... &ldquo;Las gracias de Mi misericordia se toman con un solo recipiente y &eacute;ste es la confianza. Cuanto m&aacute;s conf&iacute;e un alma, tanto m&aacute;s recibir&aacute;. Las almas que conf&iacute;an sin l&iacute;mites son Mi gran consuelo, porque en tales almas vierto todos los tesoros de Mis gracias.&rdquo; (Diario 1578). &iexcl;Jesus, en Ti Conf&iacute;o!<br />&nbsp;<br />Bendiciones, Fr.
