Primer Domingo de Cuaresma
22 de feb. de 2015
EL SIGNIFICADO DE NUESTRO BAUTISMO
Cuaresma es la época del año que dedicamos
a escudriñar nuestras vidas a la luz de nuestro
Bautismo en la muerte y resurrección de Jesús.
Las lecturas de hoy son como un catecismo abreviado de lo que nuestras vidas de bautizados significan. Tal como Noé pasó por las aguas del diluvio a una alianza con Dios, así también nosotros entramos en una alianza, una relación con
Dios prometida por nuestro Bautismo. El salmo
nos recuerda que si realmente vivimos la alianza,
el modo de vida que Dios quiere que vivamos no
va a ser una carga, sino una fuente de amor y verdad. La carta de Pedro ofrece una explicación de
lo que significa nuestro bautismo: es una plegaria
a Dios pidiendo una buena conciencia. ¿Cómo
obtenemos esta buena conciencia? Las palabras
que Jesús proclama justo después de su tentación
nos señala el camino: “Arrepiéntanse y crean en
el Evangelio”. Podría ser un buen ejercicio espiritual mantener estas lecturas a nuestro alcance durante todo el tiempo de Cuaresma, un medio para
ayudarnos a volver a una vida vivida según nuestras promesas bautismales. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

First Sunday of Lent
THE MEANING OF OUR BAPTISM
Lent is the time of year that we devote to
scrutinizing our lives in the light of our baptism
into the death and resurrection of Jesus. Today’s
readings are a nice shorthand catechism of what
our baptized lives mean. As Noah passed through
the waters of the flood to a covenant with God,
so did we enter into a covenant, a promised relationship with God through our baptism. The
psalm reminds us that if we truly keep the covenant, the way of life God expects us to follow
will not be a burden, but a source of love and
truth. Peter’s letter gives one explanation of what
our baptism means: it is an appeal that we make
to God for a clear conscience. How do we obtain
this clear conscience? The words that Jesus proclaims immediately following his temptation
show us the way: “Repent and believe in the gospel.” It might be a good spiritual exercise to keep
these readings before us throughout the entire
season of Lent, a means to help us return to a life
lived in our baptismal promises. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
