Refleccion Sobre La Palabra Del Señor
“Hermanos: Dios rico en misericordia...”.
Jesucristo, a quien el Padre envió al mundo es el
sacramento de la benevolencia divina con los
hombres. Dios es Amor. No se comporta con
nosotros cuando le ofendemos como lo hacemos
nosotros cuando alguien nos perjudica o nos
desprecia. Dios es un Padre que no duda en
entregar lo que más quiere: su Único Hijo “para
que el mundo se salve por Él” (Evangelio). Si al
sentirnos queridos por alguien la alegría esponja
nuestro corazón y somos felices, ¿qué pensar si ese
alguien es Dios, Bondad y Sabiduría infinita?
Dios mantiene su oferta de vida y de salvación a
pesar del historial de pecado que cada criatura
humana tiene. Mirar a la Cruz como los israelitas
en el desierto miraban la serpiente de bronce,
símbolo de Ella, y quedaban curados de la
mordedura del mal, es tropezarse con la prueba
evidente del perdón de Dios y de su salvación
prometida. Así es. Jesús murió en la Cruz por
nuestros pecados y éste debe ser un motivo de
consuelo cuando la conciencia, al recordarnos las
ocasiones en que le hemos ofendido, abra paso a
una inquietud mala. “¿Quién acusará a los elegidos
de Dios? Dios es el que justifica. ¿Quién los
condenará? ¿Cristo Jesús, que murió por ellos, más
aún, que resucitó, que está a la derecha de Dios y
que incluso intercede por nosotros?” (Rom 8, 34).
La Iglesia invita al cristiano a alegrarse en la Cruz de
Cristo porque de ahí brota “nuestra salvación, vida
y resurrección” (Antífona Misa Exaltación Sta Cruz).
¡La Santa Cruz, ahí está el testimonio más
elocuente y conmovedor del amor que Dios siente
por el hombre! Este amor de Dios, inmenso y loco,
que no se detiene ante la muerte, debe despertar
en nosotros un afecto grande por Él que esté
pronto a cualquier sacrificio personal. El sacrificio
que todo amor comporta es la sal de esta vida. ¿No
tenemos, a veces, la impresión de que nos
quejamos demasiado, de que somos un poco
melindres, poco sufridos? Una persona que a los 30
ó 40 años no haya tenido una contrariedad seria,
ningún disgusto importante, corre el peligro de ser
un eterno adolescente. El dolor madura a las
personas, las hace más realistas, más humanas.
Hay lugares donde los campesinos pinchan los
higos para que estén más dulces.
El cristianismo no inventó la cruz, no la trajo a un
mundo hasta entonces feliz, sino que nos enseñó y
nos ayuda a llevarla con esperanza. La opción no se
plantea entre llevarla o no porque el dolor aparece
tarde o temprano en nuestra vida, sino entre
llevarla bien o mal. Ciertamente la Cruz a unas
personas las encona contra Dios, como en el caso
del mal ladrón. A otras, en cambio, les abre las
puertas del Paraíso. El sufrimiento es el mismo. El
modo de afrontarlo, no.
No busquemos nunca a Cristo sin la Cruz, si no
queremos tropezarnos con esas cruces sin Cristo,
que no libran del dolor y que carecen del valor
redentor que encierran. Así, el olvido de uno
mismo para hacer la vida grata a los que conviven
con nosotros, el esfuerzo diario para aportar con el
trabajo nuestro grano de arena al bien común, las
contrariedades e injusticias, el dolor físico o moral
inevitables en esta vida, la lucha contra el pecado y
el esfuerzo por influir cristianamente en la cultura
y el comportamiento de nuestros iguales, lo
afrontaremos con alegría, porque “allí donde se
representa la muerte de Cristo, no puede reinar el
pecado. Es tan grande la fuerza de la Cruz de Cristo
que, si se pone ante los ojos..., ningún mal deseo,
ninguna pasión ningún movimiento de enfado o
envidia podrán prevalecer” (Orígenes, Com. in
Rom, 6, 1).
Pidamos a María, que estuvo junto a la Cruz de
Jesús, que sepamos estar con reciedumbre cuando
se haga presente en nuestra vida, y Jesús no
olvidará esta muestra de solidaridad con Él cuando
suene para nosotros el día grande de la
Resurrección de toda carne.
