Este Domingo concluimos nuestros 50 días de celebración de Pascua y por medio de las lecturas en la Iglesia se nos recuerda del poder de este día de Pentecostés. Parece que fue hace mucho tiempo cuando empezamos nuestra jornada de Cuaresma y recibimos las cenizas en la frente en la señal de la Cruz.
Todo el peregrinaje desde la Cuaresma hasta ahorita ha sido un tiempo para aprender nuevamente, acerca del plan de Dios y de la invitación que nos hace. Somos llamados a participar en el poder del Espíritu Santo y para que conozcamos que es, y que por medio de ese poder la Iglesia toma su misión. El día de hoy antes que cualquier otro día, la iglesia nos invita a profundizar nuestra fe en el regalo que nuestro Salvador nos hace en el cual nos da su propio Espíritu.
Todo el tiempo somos renovados por el Espíritu Santo y somos llamados a regocijarnos en la presencia del Espíritu Santo que se encuentra entre nosotros, porque él nos trae una abundante y nueva vida en medio de los retos y tragedias que encontramos en nuestra vida. Démosle gracias y alabanzas a Dios por todos los regalos que el Espíritu santo trae a nuestras vidas.
Paz y Bienestar Padre David
This Sunday we conclude our fifty day celebration of Easter and, in the Church, are reminded of the power of this day of Pentecost through its readings. It seems so long ago to me when we began our journey of lent and received the ashes on our foreheads in the sign of the cross.
The whole pilgrimage from Lent until now has been a time of learning once again, of Gods plan and invitation to us. We are called today to participate in the power of the Holy Spirit and to know that it is through that power that the Church takes up its mission. Today, before all days, the Church invites us to deepen our faith in the Savior’s gift of his own Spirit.
We are renewed at all times by the Holy Spirit and are called to rejoice in the presence of the Holy Spirit among us, for he brings us abundant new life in the midst of our challenges and tragedies. Let us give thanks and praise to God for all the gifts of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Peace and All Good Fr David
