FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT THE SACRAMENT OF HOLY MATRIMONY The Book of Genesis reveals the beautiful creation of man and woman and God’s blessings upon their union in Marriage. The Bible reveals the union of man and woman in God’s plan for procreation. “I love you.” It is always so comforting for married couples to express the feelings of love for each other. There will be negative feelings in all experiences of life. It is inevitable because we have different personalities, moods, and spiritual levels of varying degrees. A lack of communication and too much silence can gravely affect a marriage. A spouse can be ignored because of another’s work, reading the newspaper and talking on the telephone. The internet has become a major intruder in marriages. Communication is of major importance. God is always number one in the home and he is the center of the family. Fr. Moody

PRIMER DOMINGO DE CUARESMA EL SACRAMENTO DE MATRIMONIO

Desde las primeras páginas del Génesis, podermos ver que la relación del hombre y de la mujer se expresan de manera más plena en el matrimonio. Es en el matrimonio donde el hombre y la mujer se complementan mutuamente. El libro del Génesis aclara muy bien que la mujer es la compañera adecuada para el hombre. “Te amo” siempre es bueno oir estas palabras, especialmente si las dice tu esposo o tu esposa también. Los sentimientos negativos surgen aun en los mejores matrimonios. Esto es inevitable por lo complejas que son las personalidades y por lo variadas que son las experiencias de los dos. Muchas parejas se enfrentan a estos sentimientos por medio de la pelea seguida por el silencio. Otras se encierran en un periódico o en el trabajo o en la televisión y no le dan paso al cónyuge. ¿Cómo se puede evitar la falta total de comunicación?. El Señor, Jesús, es nuestro número uno en la casa y en las vidas de las familias. Fr. Moody

FEBRUARY 22, 2015 Reflecting on God’s Word I suspect that the real reason we avoid the desert is because in all that monotony there are no hiding places, no paths to crawl our way behind some kink of hill, no busyness that allows us to duck beneath the rippling surface of honesty, no phone calls to undo the silence that echoes our real selves. Curious that we should be afraid of the nothing rather than of the something. Yet it is the nothing, in the end, that makes the revelation happen. Such is the unsettling power of any desert, to reveal what we most fear in life, the real self that is perhaps less known and more imposing than anyone else’s self. Deserts do that, and so we avoid them like kids dancing about their homework. Over the years we learn that it’s safer to fritter about on the fringe of Lent than to get lost in its vast and desert emptiness. We’ve grown good at frittering, at tinkering with days stripped of television or meals that have surrendered their dessert. This frittering goes on simply because when it’s all over and done we are able to go back to the lives we’ve come to enjoy and treasure and nothing has been redone, least of all our real selves. Jesus, however, risked the desert. Never just a tinkerer, he dared to trek about the emptiness for forty days and nights. This week’s first scripture is a piece from Noah’s tale in the bobbing ark. Thus we might wonder which desert was more daunting, forty days and nights of Noah’s deluge or of Jesus’ drought. Yet both found themselves in new and different worlds, neither of which had ever before been mapped. —Rev. Joseph J. Juknialis Copyright © 2014, World Library Publications. All rights

Living God’s Word It’s time to decide in our own minds who we are and wish to be, to confess it to our God and to ourselves and to the whole world. Do not fear those places of desert; they are where you will recognize your truest self. Copyright © 2014, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.

Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios Sospecho que la verdadera razón por la cual evitamos el desierto es porque en medio de toda esa monotonía no existen lugares donde esconderse, ni caminos donde haya que arrastrarse para poder curvear una colina, ni ocupaciones que nos hacen hundirnos en ellas y así esquivar lo que tengo ante mis ojos y que requiere mi honesta atención, ni llamadas telefónicas que perturben el silencio donde escuchamos el eco de nuestro propio ser. Es curioso que le tengamos más miedo a nada que a algo. Sin embargo, y al fin de cuentas, es en la nada donde sucede la revelación. Así es el inquietante poder de cualquier desierto: revelarnos lo que más tememos en la vida, esto es, nuestro propio ser, que quizás nos sea menos conocido y más imponente que el ser de cualquier otra persona. Los desiertos hacen eso y es por eso que los evitamos, como los niños que hacen cualquier cosa para evitar hacer sus tareas. En el curso de los años aprendemos que es más seguro malgastar el tiempo de Cuaresma quedándonos en su periferia, acostumbrado bien a malgastar el tiempo, a ser torpes y a no saber qué hacer sin la televisión o sin comidas que no existen en el desierto. Este malgastar se debe sencillamente a que una vez que pase este tiempo volvemos al mismo estilo de vida que disfrutamos y atesoramos, y nada se ha rediseñado, mucho menos nuestro propio ser. Jesús, sin embargo, se arriesgó a ir al desierto. No era un itinerante torpe, sino que se atrevió a caminar por el desierto durante cuarenta días y cuarenta noches. La primera lectura de esta semana es un pasaje de la historia de Noé en el arca flotante. Así pudiéramos preguntarnos cuál de los desiertos fue más abrumador, los cuarenta días y cuarenta noches del diluvio para Noé o la sequía de Jesús en el desierto. No obstante, cada uno se encontró en medio de un mundo nuevo y diferente, que nunca antes se había trazado.—Padre Joseph J. Juknialis Derechos de autor © 2014, World Library Publications.
