Si nuestra manera de percibir al “otro” nos está llevando a pecar, debemos desecharla, por más apegados que estemos a ella, y escuchar lo que Jesús nos dice.

Si nuestra manera de percibir al “otro” nos está llevando a pecar, debemos desecharla, por más apegados que estemos a ella, y escuchar lo que Jesús nos dice.

If our perception of the “other” is causing us to sin, we need to throw it away no matter how attached we are to it, and listen to what Jesus says!

“Share your bread with the hungry, shelter the oppressed and the homeless; clothe the naked when you see them, and do not turn your back on your own.”

Blessed are they who refuse to be numb to the sufferings of others, even those halfway across the world.

I’m not saying that there isn’t evil being done. There is. I’m not saying that we should not speak up for what is right. We are called to work for justice.

When I put all that together, it is rather daunting to consider what it really means to follow Jesus. But we are not alone.

Jesus calls each of us by name, but we are not called as isolated individuals, but as a community of faith, as a people.

We may not be able to transform the entire world, but we can do our part where we are. I think this is what it means to “think globally and act locally.”

“This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”

The magi follow the star and they find the baby Jesus, and offer him gifts of “gold, frankincense, and myrrh.”
