Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe / Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, Rey del Universo November 26, 2017 / Noviembre 26, 2017

On this, the final Sunday of the liturgical year, we celebrate the solemnity of Christ the King. By concluding the year with this feast we are proclaiming our faith that Jesus Christ is the

one and only king over all seasons, all peo-ples, and all of creation. At the end of time as we know it, Christ's work of restoring all things to unity and harmony with their Creator God will be completed. This Sunday, when we claim Christ as both our Shepherd and our King, we recognize our own calling to partici-pate in Christ's saving work by caring for those whom Jesus calls "the least ones" (Matthew 25:45).

En este, el último domingo del ano liturgico, celebramos la solemnidad de Cristo Rey. Al concluir el año con esta fiesta proclamamos nuestra fe en que Jesucristo es el solo y único

rey sabré todos los tiempos, todos los pueblos y toda la Creación. Al final del tiempo que conocemos, queda ni completa la obra de Cristo de restaurar todas las casas en unidad y armonía con Dios su Creador. Este domingo, cuando proclamamos que Cristo es nuestro Pastor y nuestro Rey, reconocemos nuestro llamado a participar en la obra salvadora de Cristo al cuidar de quienes Cristo llama "aquellos más insignificantes" (Mateo 25:45).

REFLEXIONES Queridos hermanos y hermanas, este es el trigésimo cuarto domingo del tiempo ordi-nario, en el que celebramos la solemnidad de Jesucristo, Rey del universo. Dos senci-llas consideraciones pueden ponernos muy

bien para hacer una reflexión importante y clara en esta Asam-blea Eucarística: a) el trigésimo cuarto domingo del tiempo ordi-nario nos muestra prácticamente el final del año litúrgico. De hecho, el próximo domingo comenzaremos un nuevo año litúrgi-co con el tiempo sagrado de Adviento. Es una buena ocasión para revisar nuestras vidas y ver si hemos respondido a las gra-cias que hemos recibido de Dios, poniendo nuestros talentos al servicio de los demás. b) La solemnidad de Jesucristo, Rey del universo, nos invita a examinar si nuestras vidas dependen exclu-sivamente de él, y si hemos aprendido a elegir la voluntad de Dios en nuestras vidas. Para los creyentes, la segunda venida de Jesús en la gloria no es algo terrorífico, sino una ocasión para regocijarse y alegrarse. De hecho, él viene a reunirnos a su alre-dedor para ejercer su realeza y soberanía. Nació para ser rey, y este es el momento en el que nos comprometemos a reconocerlo y adorarlo, el único que merece gloria, honor, poder y poder. La segunda venida de nuestro Señor también es pagarle a cada uno según sus obras. Si nuestras vidas han sido un ejercicio perma-nente de misericordia, si lo hemos descubierto en nuestros her-manos y hermanas, especialmente en los pobres, que son el mis-mo rostro de Dios, entonces fuimos bendecidos y felices. Si no, él es compasivo, lento para la ira y rico en bondad. Luego nos da una oportunidad más de renovar nuestras vidas a la luz del Espí-ritu Santo y decidir ser sabios descubriendo la voluntad de Dios y actuando de acuerdo con ella. Permitamos que Jesús ejerza su realeza y soberanía. Esta es la clara invitación de la primera lectura tomada del libro de Daniel, "cuando llegó al An-ciano y fue presentado ante él, el que como Hijo del hombre recibió el dominio, la gloria y la realeza; todos los pueblos, naciones e idiomas le sirven. "Por favor no niegue a Jesús su propio derecho. De hecho, llegó a ser rey, como declaró a Pilato en su juicio. Oh Jesús, yo te pertenezco, por favor ven y reina dentro de mí para siempre!

REFLECTIONS Dear brothers and sisters, this is the thirty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary time, on which we celebrate the solemnity of Je-sus Christ, King of the universe. Two simple considerations can place us very

well in order to do an important and clear reflection in this Eucharistic Assembly, a) the thirty-fourth Sunday in Ordi-nary time shows us practically the end of the Liturgical year. In fact, next Sunday we will start a new liturgical year with the sacred time of Advent. It is a nice occasion to review our lives and to see if we have responded to the graces we have received from God, putting our talents to the service of oth-ers. b) The solemnity of Jesus Christ, King of the universe invites us to examine if our lives depend exclusively on him, and if we have learned to choose the will of God in our lives. For believers, the second coming of Jesus in glory is not something terrific, but an occasion to rejoice and to be glad. In fact he is coming to gather us around him to exer-cise his kingship and sovereignty. He was born to be a king, and this is the time in which we are committed to recognize him and adore him, the only one who deserves glory, honor, power and might. The second coming of our Lord is also to pay to each according to his works. If our lives have been a permanent exercise of mercy, if we have discovered him in our brothers and sisters, especially the poor, who are the very face of God, then we were blessed and happy. If not, he is compassionate, slow to anger, and rich in kindness. Then he gives us one opportunity more to renew our lives in the light of the Holy Spirit and to decide to become wise by dis-covering the will of God and acting according to it. Let us permit Jesus to exercise his kingship and sovereignty. This is the clear invitation of the first reading taken from the book of Daniel, “when he reached the Ancient one, and was pre-sented before him, the one like a Son of man received domin-ion, glory and kingship; all peoples, nations, and languages serve him.” Please do not deny Jesus his own right. In fact, he came to be a king, as he declared to Pilate in his trial. Oh Jesus, I belong to you, please come and reign within me forever!
