Christ. Seating for the performance begins at 6pm. No

Refleccion Sobre La Palabra Del Senor
“El principal fin de la Transfiguración, enseña S.
León Magno, era desterrar del alma de los
discípulos el escándalo de la Cruz”. A esta
interpretación, que es una constante en la
enseñanza de la Iglesia, se une también S.
Beda que, comentando este episodio del
Evangelio de hoy, dice que el Señor permitió a
Pedro, Santiago y Juan “gozar durante un
tiempo muy corto de la contemplación de la
felicidad que dura siempre, para hacerles
sobrellevar con mayor fortaleza la adversidad”.
S. Pedro no olvidará este consuelo con el que
Jesús les preparaba para los amargos días de
su Pasión y muerte y los sufrimientos que, más
tarde, tendrían que arrostrar ellos también. Y
así escribe a los primeros cristianos: “Cuando
os dimos a conocer la venida en poder de
nuestro Señor Jesucristo, no lo hicimos
inspirados por fantásticas leyendas, sino que
fuimos testigos oculares de su grandeza. Él
recibió, en efecto, honor y gloria de Dios Padre
cuando se escuchó sobre Él aquella sublime
voz de Dios: Éste es mi hijo amado, en quien
me complazco. Y ésta es la voz venida del cielo
que nosotros escuchamos cuando estábamos
con Él en el monte santo” (2 Pet 1,12-21).
Nosotros debemos aprovechar también esta
revelación que la Iglesia coloca en el ecuador
de la Cuaresma para que no nos domine la
tristeza o la desesperación en los momentos
duros de la vida. Cuando parece que todo se
hunde o un proyecto en el que se ha
empeñado la vida y por el que no se han
ahorrado fatigas y disgustos se viene abajo, la
certeza de que Dios tiene también un proyecto
que engloba los nuestros, evitará el desaliento.
En esta convicción se apoyaron siempre los
santos y ella explica su serenidad, incluso su
alegría, en medio de penalidades sin cuento.
No permitamos que la tormenta que oculta
momentáneamente al sol, nos haga dudar que
llegará el buen tiempo. También esa
perturbación atmosférica cumple su función a
la hora de la cosecha. En este episodio y ante
la exclamación de Pedro: “Señor, qué bien se
está aquí”, se nos informa que “no sabía lo que
decía”. Fomentemos la visión sobrenatural y
no suspiremos por una vida sin sobresaltos. La
historia es tarea y, a veces, está atravesada por
el sufrimiento, pero hay que sobreponerse a él
en la confianza de que entra en los planes de
Dios.
“Éste es mi Hijo..., escuchadle”. Escuchar a
Cristo, orar, es abrirse a la hondura del
misterio del Tres veces Santo. Orar no es
distraerse ni evadirse pidiendo a Dios que haga
nuestro trabajo mientras nos sentamos a
esperar. Orar es ponerse a la escucha y
aprender que la Voluntad de Dios se cumple
también en la adversidad.
