1 St. Bartholomew Catholic Church and School Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year A (Gather 998) GIVE BETTER THAN YOU RECEIVE Jesus words in today s Gospel continue to contrast the Jewish law and practice with the practice of the followers of Jesus. Today s Gospel continues with slight variations the formulation: You have heard... and What I say to you is... The old laws of retaliation were once created to soften the severe and vengeful retaliations common among the peoples that surrounded the struggling people of God. The would-be followers of Jesus again feel surrounded by people bent on retaliation. So Matthew presents Jesus, who asks his followers not only not to retaliate at all but to turn the other cheek. He asks that his listeners give the one who asks more than he or she seeks. Jesus asks us to love and pray for those of our home country and the alien, the ones who love us and the ones who hate us.

Anything worth doing is worth preparing for. Just imagine that this Lent is going to be different from every other Lent we ve experienced. Imagine that there will be many graces offered me this year. Let s even imagine that God is going to help transform our lives, with greater freedom, greater joy, deeper desires for love and service. If we want it, we will choose it. Lent will be this wonderful season of grace for us if we give ourselves to it. And, we will give ourselves to it to the degree we really want it badly. So, in these days before Lent, we need to prepare our hearts. We need to prepare by realizing how much we want to grow in freedom, how much we need to lighten our spirits and experience some real joy, and how much some parts of our lives really need changing. So, preparing our hearts is a process of preparing our desires. This means practicing our sense of anticipation. If I imagine Lent as an ordeal or a time I dread in some way, then I ve already pre-disposed myself to not get very much out of it. These days before Lent are a time to start anticipating something wonderful that is about to happen. Our Focus: On what God wants to give us. Our sense of excitement and anticipation will grow more easily if we begin to imagine what God wants to give us. There is really something coming that we can truly look forward to. If we get too focused on ourselves, and what we are going to do or not do, we could risk missing the gift God wants to give us. We have to keep aware of the fact that grace comes from God. This is about God s great desire to bless us. Then, it is easier for us to imagine that what we really want to do is place ourselves in a space to receive what God wants to give us. Not starting from a dead stop. Taking some time to get ready for Lent will ensure that we aren t going to miss the first week or two of Lent, because we are just getting started. Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, but we want to be ready to really take off on that day, rather than just beginning to think about Lent on that day. Part of what makes a vacation or a special anniversary so special is the build-up to it. Before we get to Ash Wednesday, we should start asking ourselves some questions and we should start with some preparations. What does God want to give me this year? This question may require that I slow down a bit and listen to my inner spirit. How will fasting and abstaining happen for me, for my family on that special day? onlineministries.creighton.edu/collaborativeministry/lent/before-lent.html

Levanjil jodi a ap kontinye sou menm pant sa a ak sèl varyasyon ke: Nou tande... Ak Sa mwen di nou la a se... Lwa lontan yo te branche sou vanjans, yo te kreye pou adousi rejim opresyon ak revanch ki te antoure pèp Bondye a ki tap viv yon moman difisil. Disip Jezi yo, te santi yo antoure ak moun ki pa wè anyen dòt ke revanch. Se konsa, Matye prezante Jezi, kòm yon moun ki te mande disip li yo pa sèlman pou yo pa tire vanjans sou pèson men tou pou yo vire lòt bò machwa yo bay moun ki ta ba yo yon souflèt. Li mande patizan li yo pou yo bay chak moun ki mande plis pase sa li tap chèche. Jezi mande nou pou n renmen ak lapriyè pou peyi nou ak imigran yo, lapriyè tou pou tout moun nou renmen yo e ki renmen nou e menm moun sa yo ki rayi PALUCH CO., INC.

10 23 de Febrero Año A Séptimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario ES MEJOR DAR QUE RECIBIR Las palabras de Jesús continúan contrastando la practica y Ley judía con los seguidores de las enseñanzas de Jesús. El Evangelio de hoy continúa con una ligera variación de la frase Ustedes han oído que se dijo... y yo les digo que... Las antiguas leyes de venganza se escribieron para mitigar las represalias severas y vengativas tan comunes entre los pueblos que rodeaban al pueblo guerrero de Dios. Aquellas personas que querían ser seguidores de Jesús también estaban rodeadas por personas empeñadas en vengarse. Por lo que Mateo presenta a Jesús pidiendo a sus seguidores que si alguien los golpea en una mejilla que pongan la otra. Él les pide a las personas que lo escuchan que den más de lo que alguien les pida. Jesús nos pide amar y orar por nuestros conciudadanos y los extranjeros, a los que amamos y a quienes nos odian.
