October 5, 2014 St. Florian Parish Page 5 Year of Sacraments One Word at a Time Año De Los Sacramentos De Palabra En Palabra Cry One of the most heartfelt Psalm prayers of a sick person reads, I cry at night before you. Let my prayer come into your presence. O turn your ear to my cry. (Psalm 88:2 3) And, indeed, God does hear the cry of the poor sick person. The Anointing of the Sick is the sacramental assurance that God walks with us in our weakness and illness. Those among us who are sick cry out to God, and they also cry out to us. When we celebrate the Anointing of the Sick with them, we assure them that we also walk with them. In our accompaniment of the sick, we follow Pope Francis, who urges us never to discard anyone, especially the poor, the sick, and the elderly. Our participation in this sacrament means that we hear their cry and affirm their value and dignity, especially in their vulnerability. Clamar Uno de los salmos más sinceros de una persona enferma dice: Día y noche clamo a ti. Llegue hasta ti mi oración, inclina el oído a mi clamor (Salmo 88:2 3). Y, en efecto, Dios escucha el clamor de la pobre persona enferma. La Unción de los Enfermos es la garantía sacramental de que Dios camina con nosotros en nuestra debilidad y enfermedad. Aquellos que entre nosotros se encuentran enfermos claman a Dios y también claman a nosotros. Cuando celebramos con ellos la Unción de los Enfermos, les aseguramos que también nosotros caminamos con ellos. En nuestro acompañamiento, seguimos al Papa Francisco que nos incita a no despreciar nunca a nadie, especialmente a los pobres, los enfermos y los ancianos. Nuestra participación en este sacramento significa que oímos su clamor y afirmamos su valor y su dignidad, especialmente en su vulnerabilidad.
