Why, then, does the defrauded master in Jesus parable praise the devious steward? Jesus shows by example how to sanctify material goods: by placing all our resources, indeed our very selves, at the service of others. No matter how costly such service, or how minimal the return, such charity is the wisest investment, yielding a reward that is literally out of this world. For Amos and Jesus, authentic worship of God demands practical charity toward our neighbor. Paul, too, declares that the only worship acceptable to God is offered by a community rich in charity. Liturgy must be matched to life, lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument (1 Timothy 2:8). This Jubilee of Mercy challenges us to live as children of light, as devoted to selfsacrificing service as the children of this world (Luke 16:8) are to serving themselves, as enthusiastic for God s kingdom of justice as we are about less-enduring treasures. Peter Scagnelli, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. TODAY S READINGS First Reading - The Lord never forgets the sins of those who take advantage of the poor (Amos 8:4-7). Psalm - Praise the Lord who lifts up the poor (Psalm 113). Second Reading -Pray to the Lord, who wants everyone to be saved (1 Timothy 2:1-8). Gospel - Be trustworthy in all things. Serve God, the only master, not mammon (Luke 16:1-13 [10-13]). The English translation of the Psalm Responses from the Lectionary for Mass 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved. Though our Lord Jesus Christ was rich, he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich. (cf. 2 Cor 8:9) Cristo Jesús por ustedes se hizo pobre, siendo rico, para hacerlos ricos con su pobreza. (2 Cor 8, 9) 25 o Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario La misericordia es una cosa y la negligencia otra muy diferente. Por qué, entonces, el patrón robado en la parábola de Jesús reconoce a su trabajador hábil en los negocios? Jesús muestra con un ejemplo cómo santificar los bienes materiales: poniendo todos nuestros recursos, aún nosotros mismos, al servicio de nuestros prójimos. No importa que tan costoso ese servicio, o lo poco que podamos recibir a cambio, esa obra de caridad es la inversión más inteligente, que ofrece una recompensa que literalmente está más allá de este mundo. Para Amos y Jesús, la verdadera adoración a Dios exige obras de caridad útiles hacia nuestro prójimo. Pablo también expresa que la única adoración aceptable a Dios es la que se ofrece por una comunidad rica en caridad. La liturgia debe relacionarse con la vida levantando al cielo sus manos puras, libre de odios y divisiones (1 Timoteo 2:8). Este Jubileo de la Misericordia nos desafía a vivir como hijos de la luz con dedicado servicio abnegado tan entusiasmados por el Reino de Dios de justicia pero menos por los tesoros pasajeros; así como los hijos de este mundo se sirven a ellos mismos (Lucas 16:8).
