Dear Jesus, We thank you for all mothers and carers around the world, and for all they do for their children. We thank you for their patience when we don’t get things right. We thank you for their encouragement when we find life hard. We pray that mums would feel really special today and that you would remind us every day to show them as much love and help as they give to us. Amen

Querido Jesús, Te agradecemos por todas las madres del mundo, por todo lo que hacen por sus hijos. Le agradecemos su paciencia cuando no hacemos las cosas bien. Le agradecemos por su aliento cuando encontramos la vida difícil. Oramos para que las madres se sientan realmente especiales hoy y que nos recuerdes todos los días para mostrarles un gran amor y ayuda tanto como ellas nos dan. Amén.

GOSPEL MEDITATION - ENCOURAGE DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF

SCRIPTURE

May 13, 2018 7th Sunday of Easter

This Sunday's Gospel is known as the "priestly prayer" of Jesus. The entire passage is Jesus en-trusting us to the Father. "When I was with them I protected them ? I guarded them," Jesus says. He asks his Father, "Keep them in your name." In this prayer of Jesus, we see the paradoxical tension of our life as Christians in the world. He anticipates struggle for the believer. He describes it in strong words, words that could even appear frightening to the believer. "I gave them your word, and the world hated them." Not only that, but with our eyes on eternal life, we "do not belong to the world." And yet in the midst of those realities, Je-sus doesn't take us out of the world. On the contra-ry, "as you sent me into the world, so I sent them into the world."

Christians live in this tension daily. The call of Je-sus often defies nice, neat categories. We uphold justice as virtue yet are invited to love our ene-mies. We offer gifts and generous hospitality to others while being reminded of the value of tem-perance. We are called to teach the truth of right and wrong without losing sight of the beam in our own eye. It can be difficult to find the balance in our own lives, and a Church that preaches moral perfection can easily fall under scrutiny when it falls short. In the midst of these complications, Jesus offers a message of hope. He is well aware of the contra-dictions into which he sends us, and his Father will equip us accordingly. "Consecrate them in truth." "Keep them from the evil one." Jesus does not abandon us to the tensions of our time but remains near at hand by the grace alive in his Church.

MEDITACIÓN EVANGÉLICO - ALENTAR ENTENDIMIENTO MÁS PROFUNDO

DE LA ESCRITURA

13 de Mayo de 2018 7º Domingo de Pascua

El Evangelio de este domingo se conoce como la "oración sacerdotal" de Jesús. Todo el pasaje en que Jesús nos confió al Padre. "Cuando estaba con ellos, ¿los protegía? Los guardaba", dice Jesús. Le pregunta a su padre: "Guárdalos a tu nombre". En esta oración de Jesús, vemos la tensión paradójica de nuestra vida como cristianos en el mundo. Él anticipa la lucha para el creyente. Él lo describe con palabras fuertes, palabras que incluso podrían parecer aterradoras para el creyente. "Les di su palabra, y el mundo los odió". No solo eso, sino que con nuestros ojos en la vida eterna, "no pertenecemos al mundo". Y sin embargo, en medio de esas realidades, Jesús no nos saca del mundo. Por el contrario, "como me enviaste al mun-do, así que los envié al mundo". Los cristianos viven en esta tensión diariamente. El llamado de Jesús a menudo desafía las categorías buenas y ordenadas. Defendemos la justicia como virtud y, sin embargo, estamos invitados a amar a nuestros enemigos. Ofrecemos obsequios y una generosa hospitalidad a los demás mientras re-cordamos el valor de la templanza. Estamos llamados a enseñar la verdad de lo correcto y lo incorrecto sin perder de vista el rayo en nuestro propio ojo. Puede ser difícil encontrar el equilibrio en nuestras propias vidas, y una Iglesia que predica la perfección moral puede caer fácilmente bajo escrutinio cuando se queda corta. En medio de estas complicaciones, Jesús ofrece un mensaje de esperanza. Él es muy consciente de las contradicciones a las que nos envía, y su Padre nos equipará en consecuencia. "Conságralos en verdad". "Guárdalos del maligno". Jesús no nos abandona a las tensiones de nuestro tiempo, sino que permanece cerca por la gracia viva en su Iglesia.
