I, the LORD, am your God . . . You shall not have other gods besides me.

— Exodus 20:2a, 3

As we are now well into Lent, we can take a look at what it means to turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel. A good place to start would be the Ten Commandments. The reading from Exodus presents us with one of the first list-ings of the Commandments. In this passage, God explains some of the laws to show how serious they are. For the first one, God includes making images to be used for worship. Now you might jump to the conclusion that all the statues and crucifixes in our churches must be destroyed. Not so.

In the days of Moses, people of other cultures made images of their gods and declared that the image was the god, and so should be worshipped. The LORD wanted his people to remember that God cannot be limited to an image or idea. That is still true today. Our images and statues are meant to help us pray to God, not to that work of art. In that sense, they are no worse than using a beautiful sunset or mountain scene to help you pray.

On the other hand, some people give a superstitious meaning to religious articles. Burying a statue to help sell your house could be one example. If you want to ask for a favor from God, just ask Him. God is much more likely to listen to a sincere prayer than a superstitious action.

The reason God gives for the first commandment is that he is a passionate God, who has chosen the Israelites to be his people. When he punishes sin, he allows the effect of our bad choices to hurt us and those around us. But when we repent and change our ways, his love is everlasting.

God also emphasizes some commands by duplicating them. He tells us not to steal from others, and also not to plan to steal from our neighbor. The same with adultery: Planning it is just as bad as doing it. Taking his name in vain originally meant perjuring yourself after taking an

oath to tell the truth. That is similar to the eighth commandment about false witness. Jesus simplified all these commands when he reminds us to love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself. Let’s remember that as we turn away from sin to serving God better during Lent. —Tom Schmidt, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TERCER DOMINGO DE CUARESMA :

4 DE MARZO DEL 2018

LOS DESIGNIOS DE DIOS En uno de los pasajes más escuetos y poéticos en su carta a los corintios, Pablo anuncia que “predicamos a Cristo crucificado… [porque] para los llamados… Cristo es la fuerza y la sabiduría de Dios” (1 Corintios 1:23, 24). Los designios de Dios parecen irrazonables para los que quieren un dios falso y valores mundanos. Pero Cristo, en su crucifixión, desconcierta el razonamiento tanto de los hambrientos de poder como de los que creen que lo saben todo. En una contundente denuncia de la estrecha mente de sus escuchas, hoy Jesús desbarata sus planes literal y figurativamente. En su reverencia por la casa de Dios, les deja saber claramente que lo que están haciendo es vulgar e insulta a Dios. Luego intenta abrir-les sus débiles mentes con su comprensión del poder y la sabiduría de Dios que es la cruz. Para ellos parece debilidad y estupidez. Pero el generoso sacrificio de Jesús es exactamente lo que completa la alianza que simboliza el templo. El nuevo Templo es el propio cuerpo y sangre de Cristo. —Copyright © J. S. Paluch Company

MÁS SABIO QUE NUESTRA SABIDURÍA Hoy, es fácil leer esta historia literalmente y condenar la estupidez de los allí descritos. Pero cuando tenemos miedo, ¿reaccionamos con el amor de Dios ante los que tememos o sucumbimos a la tentación de la violencia y el poder? Cuando nos encontramos con los que no estamos de acuerdo, los catalogamos de “malos” para justificar cualquier maldad que considera-mos oportuna para descargar en ellos en nombre de nuestros “derechos”? Para ser honestos, debemos admitir que a todos nos cuesta ver cómo se aplica en nuestra vida diaria la verdad de Dios en esta historia. Si sólo la interpretamos literalmente, nunca entenderemos lo que Dios nos está diciendo. Necesita-mos escuchar con oídos diferentes la sabiduría de Dios y ver con nuevos ojos el poder de Dios que nos parece-rá, aun en nuestra época, que es estupidez y debilidad. Aún luchamos con el mismo deseo mundano de poder y sabiduría como lo hicieron nuestros antepasados. ¿Podemos quedarnos quietos este domingo y dejar que Cristo nos llene con el poder y la sabiduría de Dios? —Copyright © J. S. Paluch Company

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

I hope you all had a great week. Here we are in March and the Knights would like to remind you of our St. Patrick’s Day Dinner Dance. It is to be held on Saturday March 17th. The menu will be corned beef with cabbage and potatoes. There will be, of course, dancing so bring your dancing shoes. There will also be a raffle. Tickets are $20 for adults.

LAY CARMELITE INFORMATION MEETING Lay Carmelite Information Meeting is on March 18th. Room 3 from 1:30-3:00 p.m. “The desire for God is written in our human heart.” Do you feel drawn to a deeper desire for holiness? Our Catechism of the Catholic Church says, “Humanity is created by God and for God; and God never ceases to draw us to Him-self. Only in God will we find truth and the happiness we never stop searching for.” If you have a deeper desire for God and feel called to a deeper relationship with God perhaps God is calling you to a life of holiness as a Lay Carmelite: prayer, community and service. (Contact Elizabeth Merrill 530-903-6446 or Deborah Didier 530-417-4148 for more information).

CATHOLIC RELIEF SERVICES COLLECTION Next week, our parish will take up The Catholic Relief Services Collection (CRSC). Funds from this collection help provide food to the hungry, support to displaced refugees, and bring Christ’s love and mercy to all people here at home and abroad. Next week, please give generously to the CRSC, and help Jesus in disguise. Learn more about the collection at www.usccb.org/catholic-relief.
