JESUS OF NAZARETH.
By the observation af any thing
in nature, and practically every thing, not hand made, or designed, wether it
is pysical or chemical, or mechaninal, by human persons, whether it is inert, living,
physical, chemical, can and should be considered to belong to nature, including
humanity. We are the most important part of Creation and of nature due to being
the only reasoning creatures created by God.
Taking in account what is been
said, we can see that God Creator is love, and that The bears love to every creature, specialy us, mankind
on earth, and he sent his son into the
world to save us fron Adam and Eve´s Original sin, and all the sins that we
commit in our lives, if we repent and go to the Sacrament of confession in
order to obtain his pardon, such is his love of us.
This words of Jesus Christ: “If I
be lifted up on the cross I will drive
into me all mankind “, this prophecy of himself was a reality and is being
completed as per today, as we can see the missionaries moving to every corner
of the planet in order to preach his Holy Gospel, and convert those who listen
to them.
In the synagogue he unrolled the hebrew scriptures and
picked the following: “ The Spirit of the Lord is upon me bcause he hath anoited me to preach deliverance to
the captives, and recovering of sigth to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to
preach the aceptable year of the lord”.
How few of us, there are who know
our own failing, see into our hearts, what is really good for us, in those parts of his teachings. He was clear to tell us,
mankind, that he came for the saving of the irreligious or the non religious,
to those that thougth little of themselves, to the rough working with their
hands, to the heretical samaritans, to
the heathen soldier, to the poor peasants to the swarming population of
Galilee, so as we see, our relation to Jesus of Nazareth, should be not ony be for
our salvation, but for the knowledgment of God until the limits of our
capabilities, and our love of The, since, as it is widely known, we cannot love
what we do not know. The Catholic Church is devoted to its apostolic and catechesis activities in
all the stratum of society, but with option for the: humble, neglected,
dangerous, friendless, oppresed, forgoten, unthougth, uncared and poor.
We do not refer with these adjetives
to the material status only, but to the spiritual, as well.
This is the way we help others to
their own salvation and get our own, for doing it. Our work weather it is done
in the instances and directions of our church, or given under guidelines from a
catholic organisation to wich we belong. In other words, our dedication should
follow the instructions of the Pope Franciscus, that has told us, that we have
to take our efforts to the street. Meaning that we have to look for the developing, of the catholic church following the teachings of Jesus and his example. It is
a matter of our love for the others. “ one new commandment I give you, that you
love one another”. Thy loves us from eternity, and wants us to love all his
creation, starting with our neighbors, and then our common house, the earth. Lets
ask ourselves: ¿do I realy love the others? ¿do I try to keep our planet unpoluted?.
All the activities that we do in
these fields, are a treasure that we
invest in Heaven, where it does not rust or be
stolen or deteriorated and in due time Jesus our King, judge, legislator, savior, will take this
treasure in account, and for our favour. If we seriously thik of these, we will
see the enormous convenience of carrying it out, because we are speaking of
eternity, inmediatly after we are called by our Creator to the afterlife. Our
earthly existence is short compared to eternity, and we have been created for
it, so we better do the best we can, in this life, to save ourselves.
Lets pray to our Mother in
Heaven, the holy Virgin Mary, for her help that we need, intervening for the
strength, discipline, perseverance, we must have, in order to comply with God´s will.
