We may convince ourselves that it is the poor who are favored. In today s readings, we discover that material wealth alone does not keep us from discipleship. We will see that there are other gifts more important than material wealth, but even so, it is how we use our gifts that matters most. Today s scriptures point to the value of the gifts of wisdom, trusting in God, and letting our actions reflect the love of God from within. It is not gold that causes us to fall, but rather the desire for gold above all other things. From the readings in Wisdom and Hebrews, we find the source of God s gifts in our lives. Wisdom is more valuable than worldly possessions. In Hebrews, we are challenged to look at our own values and admit honestly what controls our lives. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.

Muchísimos lo han logrado mediante mucho trabajo, un buen salario y comprándose una buena casa en un vecindario tranquilo. En pocas palabras, se han hecho ricos. No obstante, éste mismo sueño se ha convertido en una pesadilla, pues todos sueñan con ser famosos, ganar mucho dinero, tener el carro más lujoso y vivir en un condominio muy exclusivo. El chiste es hacerse ricos a toda costa. Muchas veces sin importar los medios. En la Palestina del tiempo de Jesús todo mundo soñaba con hacerse rico. Las riquezas eran consideradas bendición de Dios, por eso los discípulos se asombraron cuando Jesús declara: Es más fácil que un camello pase por el ojo de la aguja, que un rico entre en el Reino de Dios (Marcos 10:25). El ojo de la aguja era una puerta baja y estrecha por la cual pasaba la gente común a Jerusalén. Jesús no está negando la entrada al cielo a los ricos, basta que hagan lo que hace el camello para pasar: despojarse de su carga. Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.
