February 25, 2018 Second Sunday of Lent
Lent Is More than just ashes, abstinence and fasting. It is not just a time for self Improvement. The main purpose of this season is God’s work of grace, not our acts of humility. It is a time for conversion: to rediscover and renew the graces of our baptism through the contemplation of our Lords loving sacrifice for our salvation. The focus should be not on ourselves, but on Jesus . We need to turn to Jesus and beg him for a renewed experience of His presence in our lives. He is the Word made flesh. The Word conversion means to be transformed.
LA CUARESMA ES MAS QUE SOLO CENIZAS, ABSTINENCIA Y AYUNO. NO ES SOLO UN MOMENTO DE SUPERACIÓN PERSONAL. EL PROPÓSITO PRINCIPAL DE ESTA TEMPORADA ES LA OBRA DE GRACIA DE DIOS, NO NUESTROS ACTOS DE HUMILDAD. ES EL TIEMPO DE LA CONVERSIÓN: REDESCUBRIR Y RENOVAR LAS GRACIAS DE NUESTRO BAUTISMO A TRAVÉS DE LA CONTESTACIÓN DEL SACRIFICIO AMOROSO DE NUESTRO SEÑOR POR NUESTRA SALVACIÓN. EL ENFOQUE DEBERÍA SER, NO EN NOSOTROS MISMOS, SINO EN JESÚS. NECESITAMOS VOLVERNOS A JESÚS Y ROGARLE POR UNA EXPERIENCIA RENOVADA DE SU PRESENCIA EN NUESTRAS VIDAS. ÉL ES EL VERBO HECHO CARNE..
