COME TO THE FEAST
“On this mountain, the Lord of hosts / will provide
for all peoples / a feast of rich food and choice
wines” (Isaiah 25:6). That’s what Isaiah tells us today.
God is putting together a huge party for “all peoples,” to
“wipe away / the tears from every face” (Isaiah 25:8).
And what does Jesus tell us? The reign of God, he
says, “may be likened to a king who gave a wedding
feast for his son” (Matthew 22:2). When the guests
didn’t come, the king had his servants go out “into the
main roads and invite to the feast whomever you
find” (Matthew 22:9). We are called to deliver that
invitation.
One of the themes woven into today’s liturgy is that
of divine generosity. Asleep to reality, people often
think they have “earned” what they
have. In our better moments, though,
we know that all our gifts—even the
spiritual gifts—come through God’s
generosity. Our vocation is to invite
people, to remind them the tickets
aren’t for sale. We can only show up
and say thank you.Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time
VENGAN A LA FIESTA
“El Señor de los Ejércitos preparará para todos los
pueblos en este cerro, una comida con jugosos asados y
buenos vinos” (Isaías 25:6). Esto es lo que Isaías nos
dice hoy. Dios está organizando una inmensa fiesta para
“todos los pueblos”, para “enjugar las lágrimas de todos
los rostros”.
¿Y qué es lo que Jesús nos dice? “El reino de Dios”, él
dice, es como “lo que le sucedió a un rey que celebró
las bodas de su hijo” (Mateo 22:2). Cuando los invitados no acudieron, el rey mandó a sus sirvientes a que
fueran “a las esquinas de las calles y conviden a la boda
a todos los que encuentren” (Mateo 22:9). Nosotros somos llamados a distribuir esta invitación.
Uno de los temas entrelazado con la liturgia de hoy
es el referente a la generosidad divina. Ausente de la
realidad, la gente a menudo asume que ha “ganado” lo
que tiene. En nuestros mejores momentos, sin embargo,
somos conscientes de que todos nuestros dones, incluyendo los espirituales, provienen de la generosidad de
Dios. Nuestra misión es invitar a la gente, recordarles
que las entradas no están a la venta. Lo único que podemos hacer es acudir y dar las gracias.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
La Virgen María tiene siglos de estar apareciéndose a los cristianos. Aún antes de que fuese asunta al cielo, ella ya se
le había aparecido al apóstol Santiago en Zaragoza, España. Según una antigua leyenda, Santiago llegó a tierra española
en el año 40 para predicar el Evangelio. Tuvo poco éxito y desanimado pensaba sacudirse de los pies el polvo de aquella
tierra y buscar convertir otras gentes. Mientras estaba en oración, María, la madre de Jesús, se le apareció con palabras
de consuelo, ánimo y un pequeño obsequio. Le dio una imagen de ella misma sobre un pilar y con el Niño Jesús en brazos.
En esa tierra ella pidió la construcción de un templo donde ella misma sería altar para la gloria de Dios. Santiago
mismo construyó la primera iglesia donde hoy se encuentra una gran basílica en honor de Nuestra Señora del Pilar. En el
siglo XVIII, el Papa Clemente XII declaró el 12 de octubre como su fiesta en memoria de la llegada de los europeos al
continente americano. De María vienen los principios del Día de la Raza. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
