be strengthened by
fasting.
Let fasting support
your charity:
•What you give up, give
away.
•What you do not feed to
yourself, feed to others.
•What you save in fasting,
share with the needy.

“We have to pray with our eyes on
God not on the difficulties.”
Oswald Chambers
THE PATH TO FREEDOM
Most of us, if we were asked “Does the phrase ‘the
Ten Commandments’ appear in the Bible?” would likely
get it wrong, because the answer is “no.” “The Ten
Commandments” is a post biblical, phrase that developed
along with an image of God as police officer that is not
found in today’s passage from Exodus. The first phrase
is the key: God is the one who brings us out of slavery;
following God’s law or commands is our path to freedom.
The money changers whom Jesus drove from the temple
were not explicitly breaking any of the commandments,
but neither were they helping people to find God’s path to
freedom as they came to worship at the temple. This is an
important Lenten lesson for us. We need to stop asking
ourselves whether or not we are breaking specific rules or
regulations and instead examine our lives to see if we are
truly following a path to God’s freedom through Christ.

St Bart’s Students are keeping Lent Holy
8 Mars, 2015 - Troisième Dimanche de Carême - Année B
Le Chemin qui mène à la liberté
Le Carême dure 40 jours. Les six dimanches de la période en sont
exclus : elle s’étend donc sur 46 jours calendaires (40 jours ordinaires
et 6 dimanches). Etant donné qu’il prend fin lors du Samedi Saint, veille
de Pâques, le début du Carême a lieu 46 jours avant Pâques. Dans
l’église universelle, il a commencé cette année mercredi 18 février.
Le Carême désigne le temps liturgique pendant lequel l’Église
catholique invite ses fidèles et toute personne de bonne volonté,
à se tourner sincèrement vers Dieu. Ce retour vers Dieu, dans
la contemplation de son amour et de sa bonté, s’appelle la
« conversion » et s’accompagne d’efforts sur soi-même ainsi que des
privations au profit des autres.
Les chrétiens oublient parfois les dures paroles de l’Apôtre
Jean réprimandant les chrétiens fauteurs de divisions dans leur
communauté, en leur disant : « Quiconque hait son frère est un
meurtrier. Et vous le savez aucun meurtrier n’a la vie éternelle
demeurant en lui. Si quelqu’un dit : « J’aime Dieu » et qu’il haïsse
son frère, c’est un menteur. Celui qui n’aime pas son frère, qu’il voit,
ne peut pas aimer Dieu qu’il ne voit pas. »
Le Carême est un temps privilégié pour mettre à profit toutes
les occasions de rencontrer les autres, de les écouter, de se
réconcilier si besoin est, pour reconstituer la cohésion de la
communauté et œuvrer ensemble pour qu’il y ait davantage de
justice et d’amour entre les individus.
Le Carême invite à se sentir responsable du bien commun et à
ne se dérober à cette responsabilité sous aucuns prétextes surtout
ceux du genre : « Que puis-je faire ? Est-ce moi seul qui changerai le
monde ? Je ne puis porter sur mon dos la misère du monde ! »
Certes, tout seul, on ne peut changer le monde. Mais un proverbe
local dit : « Se ti gren diri ki ka plin sak » (ce sont des petits grains
de riz qui remplissent un sac ». C’est aussi le message du Carême.
Notre société devient de plus en plus individualiste sinon égoïste.
Que tous les hommes de bonne volonté répondent à cette invitation
du Christ, ne serait-ce qu’en se souciant de respecter, partout et en
toute situation, la politesse qui est la règle du savoir vivre en société :
Ce serait déjà un grand pas vers cet Amour que le Seigneur demande
aux hommes d’avoir les uns envers les autres.
Bon Carême à tous ! Rev. Michel Méranville, Archevêque de Martinique.

CAMINO A LA LIBERTAD
La mayoría de nosotros, si nos preguntaran “¿Aparece
la frase ‘los Diez Mandamientos’ en la Biblia?” daríamos
la respuesta errónea, pues la respuesta es “no”. “Los diez
mandamientos” es una frase post bíblica, que se desarrolló
junto con una imagen de Dios como ‘policía’ la cual no se
encuentra en el pasaje de hoy del libro del Éxodo. La primera
frase es clave: Dios es el que nos sacó de la esclavitud; cumplir
las leyes o mandamientos de Dios es nuestro camino a la
libertad. Los cambistas a quienes Jesús echó del templo no
estaban violando ninguno de los mandamientos, pero tampoco
estaban ayudando a la gente a encontrar el camino hacia la
libertad de Dios cuando llegaban al Templo a rezar. Esta es una
lección de la Cuaresma importante para nosotros. Tenemos
que dejar de preguntarnos si estamos o no violando alguna
regla o reglamento específico, y en cambio examinar nuestra
vida para ver si verdaderamente estamos siguiendo un camino
hacia la libertad de Dios por medio de Cristo. Copyright (c) J.S. Paluch Co.
