EL SIERVO A veces la persona y la hora se encuentran. A veces, cuando han puesto en nuestros brazos una tarea o misión, sabemos que debemos cumplir esa responsabilidad, y estamos listos. Esos son momentos de gran entusiasmo y

energía. La primera lectura y la proclamación del Evangelio de hoy nos permiten vislumbrar íntimamente el comienzo, la inauguración de un futuro desafiante. Las dos lecturas mantienen un sentido de seriedad. La primera lectura viene del misterioso Cántico del Siervo del libro de Isaías. La persona es firme y valiente. Su valentía y fortaleza no se fundan en su corazón sino en Dios. Se nos recuerda: “El Señor Dios me ha hecho oír sus palabras” (Isaías 50:4), para que el siervo comprenda la misión. Y dos veces: “El Señor es mi ayuda” (50:7, 9), para que el siervo pueda sobrellevar el sufrimiento que se avecina. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — El Señor está de mi parte; ¿quién podrá condenarme? (Isaías 50:5-9a). Salmo — Caminaré en la presencia del Señor (Salmo 116 (115)). Segunda lectura — La fe, si no se traduce en obras, esta completamente muerta (Santiago 2:14-18). Evangelio — Jesús les pregunto: “Y ustedes, ¿quien dicen que soy yo?” (Marcos 8:27-35).

SERVANT Sometimes the hour and the person meet. Sometimes, when a task or mission is set upon our shoulders, we know we must meet our responsibilities and we are ready. These are heady and invigorating times. The first reading and the Gospel proclamation today are intimate glimpses of a commencement, an inauguration of a challenging future. In both readings, a sense of gravity prevails. The first reading is from the mysterious Servant Songs from the book of Isaiah. The person is steadfast and brave. His courage and bravery are not located in his stout heart, but in God. We are reminded, “The Lord G opens my ear that I may hear” (Isaiah 50:4), so the servant understands the mission. And twice, “The Lord G is my help” (50:7, 9), so that the servant can endure the coming struggle. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — The Lord G is my help; who will prove me wrong? (Isaiah 50:5-9a). Psalm — I will walk before the Lord, in the land of the living (Psalm 116). Second Reading — Faith, if it does not have works, is dead (James 2:14-18). Gospel — Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do you say that I am?” (Mark 8:27-35).

— ¿Como es eso?—

Esta es una pareja que cuando se pelean se escriben por papel. El

esposo le escribe a su esposa, "dame la cena" y ella le escribe "ya está". Cuando se acuestan él le escribe "despiérteme a las 7:00" y ella le

escribe "está bien". Pasa la noche y él se despierta y cuando ve son las 11:00 y encuentra al lado de él un

papel que dice "son las 7:00, despiértate".

A teacher asked her students to use the word "beans" in a sentence. "My father grows beans," said one girl. "My mother cooks beans," said a

boy. A third student spoke up, "We are all human beans."
