GOD’S LAW
Scripture has always held God’s law to be the path to human happiness. In today’s first reading, Ezra the priest reads the scroll of the law to the people returned from exile. They weep—then are joyful. Israel’s relationship with God had always been defined by how they kept and lived God’s law. The author of Psalm 96 likewise praises the law of God as the source of wisdom, joy and enlightenment, purity and justice. In his advice to the bickering Corinthians, Paul points out that, just as God has made all parts of a human body essential for the health of the whole, living as “Christ’s body” requires that each member be recognized as necessary for the good of all. Finally, in Luke’s Gospel Jesus claims that the Spirit is sending him to relieve human suffering. Like Ezra, he is reading from a scroll, proclaiming God’s “law” of mercy to those in need.
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul -Incarnation Conference is busy getting ready to open February 2022. Our mission is to serve our community through home visits and a food pantry. We are asking you, our fellow Incarnation parishioners, to support us through monetary and food donations every third Sunday of the month. In addition, we are actively looking for more volunteers. Thank you for your prayers and support as we begin this worthy endeavor.

BIBLE STUDY Jesus: The Way, the Truth and the Life On Tuesday evening, 7-9pm beginning January 18, 2022, the Incarnation Bible Study Group will begin a 10-week study on the life of Jesus Christ. Jesus is more than a historical or theological figure. He is our Savior, our Redeemer, our Lord, our God, our brother and our friend. While many of us already know a lot about him, how well can we say we really know him? Filmed on location in the Holy Land, this program is a new and fresh look at Jesus – who he is, what he is really like, what he taught, and what he did for our salvation. As Christians, we say we want to live with Him forever in the heavenly kingdom; how about in our worldly life? This encounter with Christ will inspire and empower you to center your entire life on him as you come to know and love him in an and ever-deeper and more intimate way. Participants will need online service, and computer or phone with audio and video capabilities. If you are interested, please call or text Donna Burch at 813-541-8506 to be placed on the email list. Also, each participant must purchase directly from AscensionPress.com and individual study set: workbook, book, and timeline chart, along with a year-long online access to the weekly videos. The cost is $38-$39 with shipping. Please order early in interested.

Oración por el Synod Estamos ante ti, Espíritu Santo, reunidos en tu nombre. Tú que eres nuestro verdadero consejero: ven a nosotros, apóyanos, entra en nuestros corazones. Enséñanos el camino, muéstranos cómo alcanzar la meta. Impide que perdamos el rumbo como personas débiles y pecadoras. No permitas que la ignorancia nos lleve por falsos caminos. Concédenos el don del discernimiento, para que no dejemos que nuestras acciones se guíen por perjuicios y falsas consideraciones. Condúcenos a la unidad en ti, para que no nos desviemos del camino de la verdad y la justicia, sino que en nuestro peregrinaje terrenal nos esforcemos por alcanzar la vida eterna. Esto te lo pedimos a ti, que obras en todo tiempo y lugar, en comunión con el Padre y el Hijo por los siglos de los siglos. Amén

10 LA LEY DE DIOS La Escritura siempre ha sostenido que la ley de Dios es el camino para la felicidad humana. En la primera lectura, el sacerdote Esdras lee el rollo de la ley al pueblo que regresó del exilio. El pueblo llora y luego se alegra. La relación de Israel con Dios siempre se ha definido por cómo guardaba y vivía la ley de Dios. El autor del salmo 96 también alaba la ley de Dios como el origen de la sabiduría, alegría e iluminación, pureza y justicia. En su consejo con los corintios discutidores, Pablo señala que, al igual que Dios ha hecho todas las partes del cuerpo humano esenciales para la salud integral, vivir como “el cuerpo de Cristo” requiere que cada miembro sea reconocido como necesario para el bien de todos. Por último, en el Evangelio de Lucas, Jesús afirma que el Espíritu lo envía a aliviar el sufrimiento humano. Como Esdras, quien está leyendo de un rollo, proclamando la “ley” de misericordia de Dios a los necesitados.
