Weekly Reflection

Jesus Sent the Twelve

07-14-2024  |  We Celebrate Worship Resource, Vol. 49, No. 1

It isn’t easy to be God’s messenger. You try telling people what they don’t want to hear! God sent the unassuming shepherd Amos to Bethel to denounce the injustice and greed of Israel. Jesus sent the twelve apostles to the villages of Galilee to preach repentance. Amos was rejected at once and ordered to flee home to Judah. The Twelve enjoyed success, however, curing the sick and driving out demons. But they didn’t have it easy. They traveled empty-handed: no food, no change of clothes, no possessions, no money. Did Jesus want to make them dependent on the very strangers they were calling on to repent? No, he wanted them to realize their dependence on God. Therefore, Jesus gives them nothing but one thing God gave Amos: the authority to speak in God’s name. Though we are neither prophets nor apostles, we are called to be disciples by virtue of our baptism. As disciples, we now have the mission to spread the Good News. We can depend on God to accompany us as we give witness to our faith.

In what ways can you carry out the Christian mission through your parish, at your workplace, or in your community?


Jesús Envió A Los Doce

No es fácil ser mensajero de Dios. ¡Intenta decirle a la gente lo que no quieren oír! Dios envió al humilde pastor Amós a Betel para denunciar la injusticia y la avaricia de Israel. Jesús envió a los doce apóstoles a las aldeas de Galilea para predicar el arrepentimiento. Amós fue rechazado una vez y se le ordenó huir a su hogar en Judá. Sin embargo, los Doce tuvieron éxito curando a los enfermos y expulsando demonios. Pero no lo tuvieron fácil. Viajaron con las manos vacías: sin comida, sin muda de ropa, sin posesiones, sin dinero. ¿Quería Jesús hacerlos dependientes de los mismos extraños a quienes llamaban al arrepentimiento? No, él quería que se dieran cuenta de su dependencia de Dios. Por lo tanto, Jesús no les da nada más que una cosa que Dios le dio a Amós: la autoridad para hablar en el nombre de Dios. Aunque no somos profetas ni apóstoles, somos llamados a ser discípulos en virtud de nuestro bautismo. Como discípulos, ahora tenemos la misión de difundir la Buena Nueva. Podemos depender de Dios para que nos acompañe mientras damos testimonio de nuestra fe.

¿De qué manera puedes llevar a cabo la misión cristiana a través de tu parroquia, en tu lugar de trabajo o en tu comunidad?
