La historia de este lema y su relaci6n con nuestra moneda nacional se remonta a la Guerra Civil. Cambiar el lema nunca ha recibido mucho apoyo. Esa inscripci6n nos sirve como buen recordatorio en cuanto a d6nde es que descansa nuestra verdadera seguridad. En el Evangelio los fariseos, junto a algunos simpatizantes con el regimen romano y partidarios de Herodes, tratan de atrapar a Jesus para que tome una posici6n que 10pondria a mal con las autoridades romanas 0 con su propio pueblo. Pero Jesus, aun sabiendo la reputaci6n de zorro que tenia Herodes, se zafa de las redes de sus adversarios haciendo notar que pueden haber diferentes c1asesde fidelidades sin perder las prioridades. Jesus les pide que Ie ensefien la moneda id61atra que ningun judio debia llevar consigo, ya que declaraba al Cesar como un dios. Entonces les aconseja que le devuelvan al emperador la moneda que lleva su imagen, pero que Ie devuelvan a Dios aquello que lleva la imagen de Dios, esto es, ellos mismos, creados a imagen de Dios. Un nuevo orden se manifiesta cuando le entregamos a Dios su imagen por medio de nuestras palabras y obras, mostrando asi la imagen de Dios a los demas, Cuando esto sucede, el lema de "En Dios confiamos" no s610 10vemos acufiado en papel 0 herrado en cobre, sino que 10llegamos a palpar en carne y hueso. -James A. Wallace, C.Ss.R. Derechos de autor © 2012, World Library Publications. Todos los derechos reservados. Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time As Catholics we are invited to "come to the feast" at In a country that has a strong commitment to separation of church and state, it is noteworthy that our money, both bills and coins, is inscribed with the words "In God We Trust." The history of this motto and its relation to our currency goes back to the Civil War. Changing it has never gotten much support. It serves as a helpful reminder about where our true security lies. In the Gospel, the Pharisees, along with some supporters of the Roman regime called Herodians, get into the act of trying to trap Jesus into taking a stand that would get him in trouble with either the Roman authorities or his own people. But Jesus, as much the fox as Herod was reputed to be, slips out of their net by noting that there can be different loyalties without a loss of priorities. Jesus calls on them to produce the idolatrous coin that no devout Jew should carry, since it declared Caesar to be a god. Then he advises them to return to the emperor the coin that bears his image but to return to God what bears God's image, that is, themselves, made in the image of God. A new order is revealed when we give God's image back to God by our words and deeds, showing God's image to others. When this happens, the motto "In God We Trust" becomes not merely stamped on paper or branded on copper, but encountered in living flesh and blood. James A.
