“Sunny” Thoughts
Our Lord, Jesus Christ, King of the Universe
Today we celebrate the Solemnity of Our Lord, Jesus Christ,
King of the Universe. Jesus is the fulfillment of the first reading today (Ezek
34:11-12, 15-17) in which God through Ezekiel promised to look after his
people. Most of the Old Testament kings were cruel and did not really care
about their people. So, God promised he would shepherd His people because
their human shepherds, the kings, were not looking after them properly. Jesus
is that Good Shepherd. Jesus submitted to his Father’s will by dying on the
cross and was raised from the dead He now sits at the right hand of the Father
and has put all enemies - including death - under his feet, as St. Paul says in
the Second Reading today (1 Cor 15:20-26,28). That is why, in today’s Gospel,
Jesus is portrayed as Judge sitting on his throne.
What will Jesus judge in our lives? Jesus tells
us he will judge us by our treatment of him in
our fellow humans. Six of the seven corporal
works of mercy are listed in the Gospel
today. We add burying the dead to that list of
merciful works. Just as Jesus received his place
at the right hand of the Father in heaven by
self-sacrifice, so also we will receive our place
in the kingdom by feeding the hungry, giving
drink to the thirsty, making strangers
welcome, clothing the naked, visiting the sick,
and visiting the imprisoned.
“…as you did it to one of the least of my
brethren, you did it to me.” Matthew 25:40
Most of us are generous when it’s convenient
for us. We are generous when we have the time
or the money. But, generosity is the opposite of
that. It means giving of one’s time, money,
compassion, forgiveness, mercy when it’s not
convenient; when it’s not on our schedule, but
on the other person’s schedule.
Lonely people. That all
who suffer loneliness may
experience the closeness
of God and the support of
others.
Mentors of seminarians
and religious. That young seminarians and
religious may have wise and well-formed
mentors.
The care we give to others is the care we give
to Jesus, and this will be the wealth that we
will take to the next life. When we sacrifice and practice the corporal works of
mercy, we are accepting his kingship and his kingdom in our lives. Jesus tells
us, “Whatever you did for one of these least brothers/sisters of mine, you did
for me” (Matt 25:40).
By our love and service to our neighbor, will the world be able to see in us
the image of our Redeemer?
With great hope,
Father Sunny
Pastor

Pensamiento Padre Sunny
Cristo el Rey
Hoy celebramos la Solemnidad de Cristo Rey. Jesús es el
cumplimiento de la primera lectura de hoy (Ezequiel 34: 11-12, 15-17) en el que
Dios a través de Ezequiel prometió cuidar de su pueblo. La mayoría de los reyes
del Antiguo Testamento eran crueles y realmente no se preocupan por su gente.
Por lo tanto, Dios prometió que iba a pastorear a Su pueblo por su humanidad
de pastores, los reyes, no estaban buscando de ellos correctamente. Jesús es
que El Buen Pastor. Jesús se sometió a la voluntad de su Padre al morir en la
cruz y resucitó de entre los muertos, ahora se sienta a la diestra del Padre y ha
puesto a todos los enemigos - incluyendo la muerte - bajo sus pies, como dice
San Pablo en la segunda lectura de hoy (1 Corintios 15: 20-26,28). Por eso, en el
Evangelio de hoy, Jesús es retratado como Juez,
sentado en su trono.
¿Qué va a juzgar Jesús en nuestras vidas? Jesús
nos dice que él nos juzgará por nuestro
tratamiento de él en nuestros semejantes. Seis de
las siete obras de misericordia corporales se
enumeran en el Evangelio de hoy. Agregamos,
enterrar a los muertos, a la lista de las obras de
misericordia. Así como Jesús recibió su lugar a la
diestra del Padre en el cielo por el auto-sacrificio,
así también nos recibirá nuestro lugar en el reino
de dar de comer al hambriento, dar de beber al
sediento, acoger al extranjero, vestir al desnudo,
visitar a los enfermos, y visitar la prisión.
“…en cuanto lo hicieron a uno de estos
hermanos míos, aun a los más pequeños a mi
lo hicieron” (Mateo 25:40)
La mayoría de nosotros somos generosos
cuando nos es conveniente. Somos generosos
cuando tenemos el tiempo o el dinero. Pero, la
generosidad es todo lo contrario a esto.
Significa dar nuestro tiempo, dinero,
compasión, perdón, misericordia cuando no es
conveniente, cuando no está en nuestros
planes, sino que en los planes de otra persona.
* Las personas solitarias. Que
todos los que sufren la soledad
puedan experimentar la cercanía
de Dios y el apoyo de los demás.
* Los mentores de los
seminaristas, religiosos y religiosas. Que los
jóvenes seminaristas y religiosos puedan tener
entores sabios y bien formados.
La atención que le damos a los demás es el cuidado que le damos a Jesús, y esta
será la riqueza que nos llevará a la siguiente vida. Cuando sacrificamos y
practicamos las obras de misericordia corporales, estamos aceptando su realeza
y su reino en nuestras vidas. Jesús nos dice: "Todo lo que hicieron por uno de
estos hermanos / hermanas míos, a mí lo hicisteis" (Mateo 25:40).
Por nuestro amor y servicio al prójimo, ¿el mundo será capaz de ver en
nosotros la imagen de nuestro Redentor?
Con gran esperanza,
Padre Sunny
