My family was active in church and encouraged involvement in week- ly services, children’s , Vacation Bible School, Bible Drill, and church camps.

Aleluya, aleluya.

El que me ama, cumplirá mi palabra, dice el Señor;

y mi Padre lo amará y vendremos a él. Aleluya.

https://eltallerdelaserenidad.wordpress.com/2014/05/25/reflexion-al-evangelio-de-s-juan-14-15-21-vi-pascua-ciclo-a/ El evangelista Juan hoy nos dice que los apóstoles se sintieron tristes porque Jesús no se- guiría con ellos. Durante este tiempo que Jesús convive con ellos, se sienten arropados, acogidos. Su fe se ha mantenido encendida y han descubierto el camino del amor. Pero Jesús les da una esperanza. Los quiere tanto que no desea dejarlos solos, por ello, le pedirá al Padre que no los deje, que esté siempre con ellos. Esta esperanza no es otra que el Espíritu de Dios que vive en nosotros dándonos la fuerza, conduciendo nuestro camino y sosteniéndonos cuando caemos. Sin embargo, nosotros, muchas veces, dudamos del Espíritu. Nos convertimos en hace- dores de nuestra vida sin dejar un resquicio para que el Espíritu de Dios actúe en no- sotros. Nos creemos poseedores de la verdad y no queremos que nadie nos quite nuestras ideas, nuestra forma de ver y actuar. Sin embargo, como los discípulos, si nos abrimos, nos dejamos acoger e intentamos vivir el evangelio en nuestra cotidianidad, el Espíritu de Dios se manifestará, saldrá de nuestro interior, porque viviremos con la verdad, defenderemos la justicia, nuestra bandera será el respeto, la libertad y la sinceridad. Hoy celebramos la jornada del enfermo. Ellos saben que Jesús les acompaña en la enfermedad, qué los ama y los acoge con todo el amor de un verdadero Padre. ¡Feliz Semana, vivan alegres!
