“HAGAN LO QUE EL LES DIGA” SEGUNDO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
JN 2,1-11
Hoy San Juan nos habla del comienzo del ministerio público de Jesús, que obrando su primer milagro en unas bodas en cana de Galilea, nos manifiesta en una nueva epifanía el poder y la gloria de Dios que ya está con nosotros. Ahora, sin excusa alguna, estamos llamados a apresurar los comienzos del evangelio en nuestra propia vida, tal como María Santísima lo hiciera llena del Espíritu Santo aquel día en las bodas de Cana. Así nosotros ante las carencias que obscurecen nuestras vidas, y que nos quitan la paz y la alegría de la vida, deberíamos apresurar el encuentro con aquel que nos puede devolver lo que hemos perdido, destruido o malgastado. Las bodas a las que asistió Jesús y María su madre son la imagen perfecta de las bodas de Dios con la humanidad, son esa profecía que Isaías no calla por amor a Sion a Jerusalén. No podemos continuar nuestra vida ajenos o fuera de esta boda real sintiéndonos desolados o como abandonados de Dios, debemos dejar que surja esplendoroso el Señor y que brille su salvación como una antorcha en nosotros, pues su complacencia es hacernos participar de su gloria, a lo cual somos llamados por medio del Evangelio. La presencia de Cristo y de María en esa boda es la garantía de que no se acabe el vino, y por lo tanto se prolongue la alegría de la fiesta. En Cristo hay abundancia y es una fiesta que no termina, porque como decía Santa Teresa, “quien a Dios tiene, nada le falta,” en él siempre estarán nuestras tinajas hasta el borde, él es el único que puede transformar nuestra agua en un vino mejor. Solo el Espíritu del Señor puede transformar lo poco que podemos ofrecer y convertirlo en algo mejor, nuestros esfuerzos, nuestros apostolados, nuestro servicio en la iglesia, en la familia, en nuestro matrimonio, en nuestro ministerio. Descubramos pues, que solo sostenidos por el Señor, los dones y talentos que Dios ha puesto en notros darán el fruto mejor si permanecemos en él. Así es como se manifiesta en notros su gloria, y muchos más creerán en el. Si queremos construir mejor o ser parte de esa Jerusalén celeste donde brille esplendorosa la luz de Cristo, necesitamos más que nuestras limitaciones humanas, necesitamos vivir esa nupcial triunfal y eterna con Cristo nuestro Señor, porque en él la abundancia de su gracia y de su misericordia nos desbordará hasta la eternidad en un encuentro de amor perfecto de Dios con su pueblo. Y no olvidemos el consejo de María, quien nunca nos abandona y siempre está atenta a nuestras necesidades, intercediendo por nosotros; “Hagan lo que él les diga.”
