TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
En 1726, Juan de la Cruz (1542-1591) fue
canonizado por el Papa Benito XIII. Nació en la región de Castilla en España, este doctor de la
Iglesia junto con Teresa de Ávila fue reformador de la
Orden Carmelita. Muchas órdenes religiosas del siglo
XV sufrieron grandes decadencias. Por eso mientras
los Protestantes se separaban de la Iglesia, los religiosos descalzos, recoletos y observantes buscaban reformar órdenes religiosas, como la
Orden de la Bienaventurada Virgen María del
Monte Carmelo, uniéndose siempre más a la Iglesia
Romana.
Para los reformadores católicos quedarse en la Iglesia no fue fácil, ¡sin embargo se quedaron! Aunque
sus reformas fueron apoyadas por los
Papas, muchos de ellos como Juan de la Cruz
tuvieron que aguantar muchas oposiciones y
persecuciones para lograr sus reformas. Estas
reformas ardían con el deseo de amar bien a Cristo
Jesús y a su cuerpo que es la Iglesia.
En sus poesías, Juan de la Cruz muestra la fuerza
de esta llama de amor vivo a pesar de la oscuridad de
la noche que no lo deja encontrar al amante (Dios).

washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup

and then . . . .
refuses to ADVERTISE
believing it doesn’t pay.
