But an awful question arises.
Does God curse those who are
afraid and who bury what they
are given?
T
The Fear Factor
The Gospel for Sunday tells a pretty simple story. A
wealthy man leaves goods for each of three servants to manage while he is gone. We not are told
whether he gives them instructions. Finally he returns. Of the three he sees two that invested the
money and got back twice the amount. He is delighted.
Jesus does seem to say so. “To
everyone who has, more will be
given and [he] will grow rich; but
from the one who has not, even
what he has will be taken away.”
Thus far the moral of the story would be: “Make the
most of what you’ve got.”
What does it mean? In the realm of spirituality there
is only one thing I know that goes away if it is buried
but which gets greater if you use it.
But we miss the most interesting part of all if we
look just at the successful servants (as does the
shortened version of the Gospel mistakenly do in
the lectionary!!!!!). We lose the fascinating and puzzling story of the third servant.
Ouch. OUCH.
Love.
If fear slams the door against love, guess where
you or I will be. In the darkness outside, wailing and
gnashing our teeth.
This poor soul did not invest the money at all. He
buried it. Quite simply, he was afraid of investing it
and losing it. Seems he was right to be afraid, given
the way the owner actually did throw the poor man
into “the darkness outside” where would be “wailing
and grinding of teeth.” Quite an overreaction, it
seems: the poor servant just wanted to keep the
owner’s money safe!
Get this: we all are frightened. But God has compassion upon us. God waits for ages to see if we
will not accept just a bit of the love he offers, and if
we will even find just enough courage to invest
some of that love in other people. It is definitely a
risk, and God is often disappointed in the results.
Surely he says, “oh no, not again,” when we fail.
Maybe the owner was simply a “demanding person,” as the parable says. Dark-spirited.
But this is a reaction from someone who loves us
very well.
But there is more to it. There was a lot at stake. The
monetary unit “talent” in Jesus’ time was not a small
amount. Even one talent could be worth more than
a laborer would earn in a lifetime. And the servants
had a lot more entrusted to them than just money.
The owner left them all his possessions, everything
he had. He took a great risk and he wanted them to
do the same, not to leave the investment rotting
away underground somewhere.
Remember, love casts out fear.
We all are frightened. But God has compassion upon us. Assume now that the parable is about God.
Maybe God entrusts an even greater amount to you
and me. Our intricate lives. Our abilities. The living
breathing human beings around us. Love for and
from them—and every so often, real and open acts
of unselfishness on our part. God gives all this and
more free of charge: our own lives with all their rewards and catastrophes. God says to us, dive in.
Have your life. Make whatever you will with it because you are my beloved.
Wonderful!
Let love in.

Homilía
33º domingo de tiempo ordinario
Enchar Tierra a la Vida
Hace una semana, Mateo nos regaló la imagen de
diez jóvenes con la oportunidad de proveer la luz de
unas bodas. La alegoría / parábola nos explica que
cinco de ellas estaban preparadas y cinco no. Esta
semana oímos lo que Jesús dice con respecto a nuestra misión de producir algo positivo con los dones que
acompañan la vida.
Las estadísticas nos animan o desaniman con lo que
indican de la responsabilidad compartida. A veces, ni
el liderazgo ni la actitud del pueblo se prestan para
buenos resultados.
El comportamiento de los políticos desespera. Nuestra
Iglesia Católica no decide si quiere imposiciones jerárquicas o las decisiones de un pueblo que apoya. Unos
obispos piensan que el evangelizar implica convertir al
prójimo en lo que nosotros somos como católicos. La
administración educativa en Chicago aumenta sus
sueldos y dejan a los niños sin recursos necesarios.
En esta humanidad compartida el liderazgo provoca
más división que unión.
Una caricatura política comenta, "Todos los hijos de
Dios tienen armas". Parece que ser los Pueblos del
Libro provoca más violencia que reconciliación. Sin
embargo, ¿qué diferencia humana hay entre judío,
muselmán y cristiano? El liderazgo de las religiones ha
sido inepto y corrupto, pero ¿qué ha pasado con los
cristianos comunes y corrientes que fueron conocidos
en los primeros siglos de la Iglesia por su amor al
prójimo?
Los líderes corruptos de este mundo comprado y
esclavizado pueden seguir engañando a los demás en
su búsqueda del poder y la plata sólo por motivo de
nuestra apatía al permitirlos hacerlo. Ellos tienen una
cara de concha; sus nombres, títulos y engaños existen sin vergüenza. Ellos son los únicos ganadores de
su propia lotería.
Siendo del pueblo y oponiendo las corrupciones de las
estructuras del poder no es fácil. Quien desafía la Iglesia será llamado hereje; quien cuestiona el gob-ierno
será acusado como liberal irrelevante; quien acusa a
las empresas de envenenar el ambiente, no conseguirá trabajo jamás. Sin embargo, sólo una comunidad
consciente y activa puede contradecir y oponer lo que
destruye la vida y sus esperanzas.
En plena calle y al sol de mediodía, no hay nadie para
apoyar la justicia. Las gentes han ido lejos para investigar el sitio en donde escondieron sus tesoros del
tiempo y la eternidad. El tren o autobus camina al centro y regresa con individuos sin comunicación. Nadie
dice nada. No hay expresión ninguna. Sólo hay apatía.
No se ve ningún valor ni talento porque jamás se revelan. Son nuestras gentes de cartón, no interesadas en
Page/Página 5
su ambiente y menos interesantes que las propagandas en
contra de la droga y el SIDA
puestas sobre los asientos. Al
pasar una calle, una piedra tirada
por un chiquillo nos alcanza,
pegando a una de las ventanas.
Una joven sentada frente a la
ventana echa su grito de susto,
pero en seguida y sin más advertencia, el pequeño
mundo sobre ruedas vuelve a su contem-plación ensimismada sobre el vacío.
Nadie nos pide nada porque nada espera nada. Los
obispos nos deben llamar a todos a un ministerio de
servicio. En la ceremonia llevada a cabo en el seminario hace poco, unos seminaristas aceptaron la ordenación al diaconado. ¡Ojalá lo sigan invitando los
obispos, curas, diáconos y pueblos durante toda su
vida ministerial porque su vocación no es sólo de
ahora sino de los momentos muy difíciles que les esperan. Las relaciones que uno vive, los dones que
uno posee, las necesi-dades de las comunidades cam
-bian profundamente y aprendemos sólo lentemente y
con paciencia lo que otros nos intentan enseñar.
Cada uno es invitado por medio de nuestra vida regalada e inmerecida a actuar sobre el mundo.
Echados de la matriz cómoda y cariñosa a un mundo
inhóspito y caótico, nosotros gritamos por temor y
reconocimiento del caos que nos va a rodear. Habrá
desorden hasta el momento en que la muerte nos
pone encima su mano helada. Esto pertenece a nuestro mundo y, a pesar de ellos, tenemos que buscar la
integridad personal y la organización de nuestro ambiente siempre. Jesús nos quiere comunicar esto al decirnos que el Reino de Dios está en medio de nosotros como una lucha con-stante provocada por el
mismo Dios, para que el amor, el juicio y el acompañamiento lleguen a nuestro mundo de alegría y dolor.
Acompañarnos los unos a otros es nuestro ministerio.
Este ministerio no nos cambia de lo que ya somos.
Invitados a ser la cara presente del mismo Cristo,
debemos sacar nuestras palas y comenzar a desenterrar nuestras vidas, talentos y sueños, sacudiéndoles todo el polvo que los cubre, para ponerlos a trabajar para nosotros y los demás.

STEWARDSHIP CORNER
“Well done my good and faithful
servant.” With those words the
master in Jesus’ Parable of the
Talents smiles and rewards his
servant. We often cite the Parable of the Talents in relation to
stewardship. Because of our understanding of “talent,” we may
assume that this is a parable about skills and those kinds
of gifts.
Of course, in this case, a “talent” is a unit of money.
Scholars assume that the master is wealthy; therefore,
whether one received five talents, two talents, or one
talent, they most likely received a huge amount of money
according to our standards. That is not the stewardship
perspective of this parable. Each of us, just as the three
servants in the parable, has received multiple gifts from
God (the Master). The question posed by Jesus, and the
question we must be prepared to answer at our own
judgment, is “What have you done with the gifts you have
received?”
Everything we have and everything we become are gifts
from God. Like the stewards in the parable, we have
been given gifts. Do we develop those gifts and do we
share them, or do we “bury” them and really do nothing
with them? Those who do the former, return them with
increase to the Lord, are not only complimented, but embraced and invited: “Come share your master’s joy.”

at this location for two weeks. It will be given to a needy person in Fallbrook,
the Food Pantry, a woman’s shelter or to Father Joe’s Ministries.
Finished segments can be placed in the basket in the Parish Office, the
Fallbrook Library, Senior Center, Espresso Lounge or North County Academy of Dance in Bonsall. Volunteers are also needed to stitch together the
patches into blankets and to teach knitting or crocheting at the Senior Center
or Library.
