Aunque llamamos Ordinarios a estos domingos que están en medio de las principales etapas de la Iglesia, son cualquier cosa menos ordinarios. La palabra ordinario se utiliza porque la Iglesia utiliza los números ordinales (primero, segundo, tercero, etc.) para designar cada uno de estos domingos. Además, como la Navidad y la Epifanía nos han mostrado, Dios se revela extraordinariamente en lo ordinario de nuestra vida. Como lo hizo por Samuel y Pedro en las lecturas de hoy. El primer domingo del tiempo ordinario suele aplicarse durante el Bautismo del Señor, en el que Dios se sumerge en nuestras vidas y nosotros nos sumergiremos en el Reino. Así, el tiempo ordinario comienza con una inmersión en la vida misma de Dios. Tiene que ser vivido y celebrado extraordinariamente. Somos, cada uno, llamados por Dios. Samuel vivió su vocación (llamada) en su sueño; Pedro la experimentó por la intervención de su hermano Andrés. Todos tenemos una historia diferente en la que Dios nos ha llamado a ser alguien. Una vida de llamado (vocación) no es sólo para sacerdotes, diáconos, monjas o monjes. Es para todos, para cada cristiano. En el Antiguo Testamento, a Samuel se le dijo que se quedara con la voz que lo llamaba. La palabra traducida como "Aquí estoy" significa una presencia inminente en la traducción hebrea: Hinneni. "Mira, yo me quedo aquí." En el NT, Andrés y el otro discípulo de Juan el Bautista siguen a Jesús para ver donde se queda. La palabra traducida como "quedas" juega un papel destacado en este pasaje (está 3 veces) y se produce en todo el evangelio de Juan: menein. Tiene la sensación de permanecer y cumplir, una presencia continua. Tenemos que persistir continuamente y quedarnos con, cumplir con, el llamado que Dios nos ha dado, cualquiera que sea la forma en que este se manifieste. Podría ser dicho con razón que la Biblia no es más que una serie de historias de llamados, entrelazadas para mostrar cómo Dios obra a través de lo cotidiano de la condición humana. Él llama a la gente común a tareas extraordinarias: dirigir, servir, predicar, enseñar, casarse, tener hijos, al amor, a morir. El lunes, conmemoramos el fallecido Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Precisamente, él era un poderoso ejemplo de alguien llamado a hacer cosas extraordinarias. ¿Conocía las derivaciones de lo que ocurriría conforme el avance del movimiento de derechos civiles? ¿Sabía que de hecho podría acabar con su vida? Aun así, perseveró a pesar de todo, tal vez incluso a sabiendas de que iba a morir. Tal vez, al final del último discurso que pronunció en Memphis, Tennessee, el 3 de abril de 1968, al unirse a la protesta de los trabajadores de recursos sanitarios de la ciudad, el día antes de ser abatido por la bala del asesino lo dice mejor: "Bueno, no sé qué va a pasar ahora; tenemos algunos días difíciles por delante. Pero realmente no me es importante ahora, porque he estado en la cima de la montaña. Y no me importa. Como cualquier otro, me gustaría vivir una larga vida- permanencia tiene su lugar. Pero no estoy preocupado por eso ahora. Sólo quiero hacer la voluntad de Dios. Y Él me permitió subir a la montaña. Y he mirado por encima, y he visto la tierra prometida. Puede que no llegue allí con ustedes. Pero quiero que sepan esta noche, que nosotros, como pueblo, llegaremos a la tierra prometida. Por lo que estoy feliz esta noche; No estoy preocupado por nada; Yo no temo a ningún hombre. Mis ojos han visto la gloria de la venida del Señor”. Tenemos que quedarnos con la vocación no importa lo fantástico o lo mundano que esta parezca. Dios puede muy bien estar trabajando a través de nosotros. Nuestra tarea es discernir qué es lo que Dios pudiera querer de nosotros. Así que tenemos que seguir y ver y permanecer como lo hicieron Andrés y el otro discípulo (y tal vez anunciar, como hizo Andrés a Simón Pedro), y también tenemos que escuchar como el joven Samuel. "Habla, que tu siervo escucha." Con nuestra muy ordinaria respuesta comienza nuestra extraordinaria inmersión en la vida misma de Dios.

John Robert Skeldon We begin our foray into Ordinary Time with two call stories, perhaps quite famous call stories; one, concerning Samuel and the other, concerning Peter. Though we call these Sundays between the major seasons of the Church year ordinary, they are anything but ordinary. The word ordinary is used because the Church uses the ordinal numbers (first, second, third, etc.) to designate each of these Sundays. In addition, as Christmas and Epiphany have shown us, God reveals himself extraordinarily in the ordinary of our lives. So, he did for Samuel and Peter in today’s readings. The first Sunday of Ordinary Time is usually given over to the Baptism of the Lord, in which God is immersed into our lives and we become immersed into the Kingdom. Thus, Ordinary time begins with an immersion into God’s very life. It has to be lived and celebrated extraordinarily. We are each called by God. Samuel experienced his vocation (calling) in his sleep; Peter experienced his by the intervention of his brother Andrew. All of us have a different story in which God has called us to be someone. A life of being called (vocation) is not just for priests, deacons, nuns or monks. It is for every, every Christian. In the OT, Samuel was told to stay with the voice beckoning him. The word translated as “Here I am” connotes an immediacy of presence in the Hebrew: hinneni. “Look, I am staying here.” In the NT, Andrew and the other disciple of John the Baptist follow Jesus to see where he is staying. The word translated as “to stay” plays a prominent role in this passage (3 times it occurs) and throughout John’s gospel: menein. It has the sense of remain and abide, a continuous presence. We have to continually persist and stay with, abide with, the calling God has given us, whatever way it is manifesting itself. It could be rightly said that the Bible is nothing more than a series of call stories linked together to show how God works through the ordinariness of the human condition. He calls ordinary people to extraordinary tasks: to lead, to serve, to preach, to teach, to marry, to have children, to love, to die. On Monday, we commemorate the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He was a powerful example of precisely someone called to do extraordinary things. Did he know the ramifications of what would happen as the civil rights movement gained steam? Did he know that it could very well take his life? He still persevered through it all, perhaps even knowing that he was going to die. Perhaps, the end of the last speech he gave at Memphis, Tennessee on April 3, 1968, joining the protest of the sanitation workers of the city the day before he was struck down by the assassin’s bullet says it best: “Well, I don't know what will happen now; we've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter to with me now, because I've been to the mountaintop. And I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life–longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land. And so I'm happy tonight; I'm not worried about anything; I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.” We have to stay with the vocation no matter how fantastic or how mundane it may seem. God may very well be working through us. Our task is to discern what it is God may be wanting from us. So we have to follow and see and stay as Andrew and the other disciple did (and perhaps announce, as did Andrew to Simon Peter), and we also have to listen like young Samuel. “Speak, for your servant is listening.” With our very ordinary response begins our extraordinary immersion into the very life of God.
