Second Reading -- Make no judgments; the Lord will judge (1 Corinthians 4:1-5). Gospel -- God feeds the bird and clothes the flowers. Do not be anxious; God knows all your needs (Matthew 6:24-34). DON'T BE ANXIOUS People have, it seems, a natural penchant for misplaced emphasis on unimportant things. They can easily get caught up with what they're having for dinner or what they will wear. Often it is a tragedy that helps people to refocus on what is really important. What I shall wear is an irrelevant question when I am facing surgery or chemotherapy. What's for dinner is immaterial to those living through grief or unemployment. In today's Gospel, Jesus tells us not to worry. He doesn't say, "Don't eat. Don't cook. Don't buy clothes." He says, "Don't worry." Jesus asks us not to relinquish our responsibilities but to let go of our anxiety. Anxiety betrays a lack of trust and Jesus reminds us that "Your heavenly Father knows" all that you need (Matthew 6:32).

3 Feb 26, Page 3 Fr. Anthony s Faith Formation Corner Matthew 6:24-34: And All These Things Will Be Given To You This Sunday we come to that part in Jesus Sermon on the Mount where we hear a very profound statement from the mouth of the Savior: Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides, (Mt 6:33). This saying very much sums up the whole of the famous Sermon. As we say again and again, the imperative to strive for God s Kingdom must take precedence over everything in the life of a disciple. Any follower of Jesus must have a single-minded devotion in pursuit of the Kingdom. Understood in this context, the above mentioned statement makes sense and would not lead to misconceptions. However, there is another side to this Gospel passage that can lend itself to undesirable interpretations. Jesus tells his disciples: Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all and they will be given you. Taken out of context, these sayings may seem to imply that the disciples (and ultimately, we ourselves) do not have to do anything because our Father in heaven will provide. Here I would like to recall the distinction between text and context. In itself, a text is only a multitude of words: what is written on paper. The context is the world behind the text, or that which gives meaning to the text. Obviously the context is very important. We know that any book in the Bible did not just fall from the sky, but was written from a particular context. The Gospel of Matthew was written within the context of a small early Christian community that included members who were both of Jewish and Gentile origin. Just like any community, there were differences. For example, as we know well from Paul s letters to the Corinthians, the Christians at Corinth were plagued by dissentions and quarreling, (see 1 Cor 1:10-11). However, despite all their differences and disagreements, members of the early Christian communities also saw to the fact that their fellow Christians had enough to eat and drink. They did have concern for one another. So when these statements of Jesus (about not worrying) were heard by the Matthean community, they made perfect sense for the members. The members were not advised to be lazy and to wait for God to provide. Rather, they were admonished to see to the fact that no one would go hungry and thirsty. What does this Gospel passage mean for us? For one thing, we have to believe that in principle, the God who made the whole universe out of nothing, and who provided manna for the thousands of Israelites in the desert, could give us our daily bread without us having to do anything. However, in reality, that is not going to happen. Chances are that God also relies on us to help one another, to see to the fact that our brothers and sisters do not go hungry or thirsty. God leaves that task to us! We are charged to act on God s behalf too and not just naively relying on God s power and thinking that God will take care of everything! Rose Browning, Victor Sanchez, Nguyen Charlene, Maria Nguyen Thi Son, Rodrigo Castro, Edna Gutierrez, Catherine Wisdom, Nguyen Thi Linh, Travis Huismans, Manielena Gutierrez de Avila, Fernando Escobar, Elia Gonzalez. Lord Jesus Christ, Redeemer of the world, you have shouldered the burden of our weakness and borne our sufferings in your own passion and death. Hear this prayer for our sick brothers and sister whom you have redeemed. Strengthen their hope of salvation and sustain them in body and soul, for you live and reign for ever and ever. Amen.

Serrano, Theresa Trinh Phuong Mai, Claire Elise Owens, Giuse Dinh Van Thanh. God, our shelter and our strength, you listen in love to the cry of your people: hear the prayers we offer for our departed brothers and sisters. Cleanse them of their sins and grant them the fullness of redemption. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

6 LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura -- Dios nunca te olvidará (Isaías 49:14-15) Salmo -- Descansa sólo en Dios, alma mía (Salmo 62 [61]). Segunda lectura -- No juzgues, sólo Dios juzgará (1 Corintios 4:1-5). Evangelio -- Dios alimenta a las aves y viste a las flores. No estés ansioso; Dios conoce todas tus necesidades (Mateo 6:24-34). TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Empezó nuevamente la Cuaresma, este tiempo anual en que recordamos y celebramos los cuarenta días que Jesús pasó en el desierto, donde fue tentado por Satanás. El mismo nombre "Cuaresma" recuerda la importancia del número 40 en la tradición judeocristiana. Cuarenta fueron los días del diluvio, los días en que Moisés y Elías pasaron en la montaña de Dios, y los años que el pueblo de Israel caminó por el desierto a la tierra prometida. El número 40 en la Biblia simboliza las pruebas y dificultades de la vida terrenal. Cuarenta es el número de la preparación para algo importante y de crecimiento en la vida. La Cuaresma cristiana que se remonta hasta el siglo IV no sólo conmemora los días que Jesús pasó en el desierto, sino que debe ser un tiempo para reflexionar acerca de nuestra propia vida con sus pruebas y dificultades. El Papa León Magno describe la Cuaresma como un retiro durante el cual los fieles, recordando el ejemplo de Jesús, se preparan para celebrar la Pascua con un corazón purificado y la práctica perfecta de la vida cristiana. --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM Feb 26, Page 6 Comunidad Hispana LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Lunes: Sir 17:20-24; Sal 32 (31):1-2, 5-7; Mc 10:17-27 Martes: Sir 35:1-12; Sal 50 (49):5-8, 14, 23; Mc 10:28-31 Miércoles: Jl 2:12-18; Sal 51 (50):3-6ab, 12-14, 17; 2 Cor 5: :2; Mt 6:1-6, Jueves: Dt 30:15-20; Sal 1:1-4, 6; Lc 9:22-25 Viernes: Is 58:1-9a; Sal 51 (50):3-6ab, 18-19; Mt 9:14-15 Sábado: Is 58:9b-14; Sal 86 (85):1-6; Lc 5:27-32 Domingo: Gn 2:7-9; 3:1-7; Sal 51 (50):3-6, 12-13, 17; Rom 5:12-19 [12, 17-19]; Mt 4:1-11 NO SE INQUIETEN Pareciera que las personas tienden a inclinarse hacía el lado equivocado en asuntos sin importancia. De pronto pueden engancharse con decisiones de poca importancia como qué cenar o qué ropa ponerse. Es frecuente que una tragedia sea la que ayude a la gente a volver a centrarse en lo que realmente es importante. Qué ropa debo ponerme es tan irrelevante cuando tengo que ir a una sesión de quimioterapia! Qué hay para cenar también es irrelevante para quienes están desempleados! En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús nos dice que no nos preocupemos. Él no dice: "No coman. No cocinen. No compren ropa". Él dice: "No te preocupes". Jesús nos pide que no abandonemos nuestras responsabilidades sino que hagamos a un lado a nuestra ansiedad. La ansiedad demuestra una falta de confianza y Jesús nos recuerda que "Nuestro Padre en el Cielo sabe" qué es lo que necesitamos (Mateo 6:32).
