Weekly Reflection

Peace

04-14-2024  |  We Celebrate Worship Resource, Vol. 49, No. 1

After Peter rebukes his audience for their responsibility in putting Jesus to death, he offers them an opportunity to make amends: “Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away” (Acts 3:19). He ought to know. While the crowds were calling for Jesus’ death, Peter had denied him three times and stayed as far away from him as he could. So too had most of the other disciples. Secretly gathering later in the upper room, having heard that Jesus had risen from the dead, they must have wondered if he would be angry or disappointed in them for abandoning him. But he was not. “Peace be with your,” he said immediately (Luke 24:36), before calling upon them to preach repentance for the forgiveness of sins, which Peter did, boldly and eloquently. Now Peter is preaching to us. We have sinned. We have failed. Yet always Jesus greets us with forgiveness, as he does here today in the breaking of bread. Peace, he offers, the peace of knowing that always, anytime, our sins can be wiped away.

Do you feel that sense of peace that comes from the Lord? How can you pass that on to your neighbor?


La Paz

Después de que Pedro reprende a su audiencia por su responsabilidad al dar muerte a Jesús, les ofrece la oportunidad de enmendarlo: “Arrepiéntanse y conviértanse para que se les perdonen sus pecados” (Hechos 3:19). Él debería saberlo. Mientras la multitud pedía la muerte de Jesús, Pedro lo negó tres veces y se mantuvo lo más lejos que pudo de él. También lo habían hecho la mayoría de los otros discípulos. Reunidos en secreto más tarde en el aposento alto, después de haber escuchado que Jesús había resucitado de entre los muertos, debieron haberse preguntado si él estaría enojado o decepcionado con ellos por haberlo abandonado. Pero no lo fue. “La paz esté con ustedes”, dijo inmediatamente (Lucas 24:36), antes de llamarlos a predicar el arrepentimiento para el perdón de los pecados, lo que Pedro hizo con valentía y elocuencia. Ahora Pedro nos está predicando. Hemos pecado. Hemos fracasado. Sin embargo, Jesús siempre nos saluda con el perdón, como lo hace hoy aquí al partir el pan. Paz, ofrece, la paz de saber que siempre, en cualquier momento, nuestros pecados pueden ser borrados.

¿Sientes esa sensación de paz que viene del Señor? ¿Cómo puedes transmitirle eso a tu vecino?
