Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord Page Three

Alright, my brothers and sisters: all the presents have been opened, the trash cans are full of gift wrapping paper and tamale wrappings, the excitement and surprise is all but a memory now; you have been eating and drinking more than you should have for the last month and now you can barely move and the guilt is killing you; and soon enough you will receive the bill for all the over spending you could not afford for Christmas. I hope and pray somebody gave you some Tylenol for Christmas so you can take care of the headache that is about to visit you when the bills come in. Ok, here is another reality check: The Solemnity of the Epiphany is not only about the manifestation of the Lord, but also the manifestation of what God says who we are in and through Christ. Become what you already are in Christ!

Ok, hermanos y hermanas: ya los regalos han sido abiertos y los recipientes de basura están llenos de papel de regalos y de hojas de tamales, las sorpresas y entusiasmo son ya más que un recuerdo; has estado comiendo y tomando más de lo que deberías por todo un mes y ahora apenas puedes moverte y la conciencia te está matando; y muy pronto recibirás la cuenta de todo lo que sobre gastaste en Navidad. Espero que alguien te haya regalado Tylenol en Navidad para el dolor de cabeza que te visitara cuando te lleguen las cuentas. Y ahora otra realidad: La Solemnidad de la Epifanía no solamente es la manifestación del Señor, sino también la manifestación de qué Dios dice que somos en Cristo. ¡Realiza lo que ya eres en Cristo!

FAITH FORMATION CORNER- THOUGHTS

TO PONDER, WAYS TO LIVE

“And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus". Phil 4:7 Today we celebrate the Epiphany of the Lord. Epiphany, which means manifestation or revelation, reminds us of the manifestation of not only God as our sovereign King, but also of the manifestation of God’s Kingdom here on earth. But how are we to help in that manifestation? One of my favorite quotes, from columnist and author Gladys Taber, reminds me that belief comes before action: “But in this season it is well to reassert that the hope of mankind rests in faith. As man thinketh, so he is. Nothing much happens unless you believe in it, and believing there is hope for the world is a way to move toward it.” As we begin this new year, let us begin with a renewed belief in our God, and belief in a world that reflects a loving God. Let us also begin this year with hope and the determination, even if it is just for today, that we will do something for the betterment of mankind, our world, our com-munity and our own lives. So, just for today…I will not for-get the benefits of knowing God: unconditional love, and just for today I will give it to others. Forgiveness of sins, so just for today, I will forgive others as God forgives me. A second chance, so just for today I will give myself and another a sec-ond chance. Peace beyond understanding, so just for today, I will rest in that peace, and pray for others to find the same.

Faith Formation Classes First Communion classes begin this week on Tuesday, Jan 5 and Confirmation 1 class will meet next Sunday at 3:00 PM.

“Y la paz de Dios, que sobrepasa todo entendimiento, guardará vues-tros corazones y vuestros pensamientos en Cristo Jesús”

Filipenses 4: 7.

Hoy celebramos la Epifanía del Señor. Epifanía, que significa manifes-tación o revelación, nos recuerda la manifestación de Dios no sólo

como nuestro Rey soberano, sino también la manifestación del Reino de Dios aquí en la tierra. Pero ¿cómo vamos a ayudar en esa manifesta-ción? Una de mis citas favoritas, la columnista y autora Gladys Taber,

me recuerda que la fe viene antes de la acción: "Pero en esta temporada está bien reafirmar que la esperanza de la humanidad descansa en la fe.

Como el hombre piensa, así es él. No hay mucho que sucede si no creéis en él, y la creencia de que hay esperanza para el mundo es una

manera de avanzar hacia ella". Al comenzar este nuevo año, comence-mos con una creencia renovada en nuestro Dios, y la fe en un mundo

que refleja un Dios amoroso. También debemos comenzar este año con esperanza y determinación, incluso si es sólo por hoy, de que vamos a hacer algo por el bien de la humanidad, nuestro mundo, nuestra comu-nidad y nuestra propia vida. Así que, sólo por hoy ... no voy a olvidar

los beneficios de conocer a Dios: el amor incondicional, y sólo por hoy voy a darlo a los demás. El perdón de los pecados, por lo que sólo por hoy, voy a perdonar a los demás como Dios me perdona. Una segunda oportunidad, por lo que sólo por hoy me dare ma mi y a otro una se-

gunda oportunidad. Paz más allá del entendimiento, por lo que sólo por hoy, voy a descansar en la paz y orar por los demás para que encuen-

tren lo mismo. Clases de Formación de Fe

Clases de Primera Comunión comienzan el martes 5 de enero Y Confirmación 1, se reunirá el próximo domingo a las 3:00 PM.
