God is good  / Dios es bueno

God is good  / Dios es bueno

padremigrante March 16, 2023 CMFN

Dios es bueno

A veces nosotros católicos son demasiados serio. He escrito algunos blogs que son demasiado pesados. Tenemos que recordar que Dios es bueno. No está bien vivir desilusionados. Jesús dijo, “Dios no envió al Hijo para condenar el mundo, sino para que se salve el mundo gracias a él.” (Juan 3:17) Necesitamos animar uno al otro con la Buena Nueva.

Anoche tuvimos un grupo de discusión de Cuaresma con doce feligreses. A veces veíamos las cosas de manera diferente de uno a otro. Eventualmente, todos podríamos reconocer la bondad y la misericordia de Dios. Teníamos diferentes formas de expresar nuestra creencia, pero con alegría, unimos con confianza que “Dios es bueno”.

Hay problemas en el mundo. Hay problemas en nuestro país. Hay problemas en nuestras familias y en nuestra comunidad. En lugar de centrarnos en las pruebas y tribulaciones, confiamos que Dios es bueno. Por su misericordia para con nosotros, podemos ser misericordiosos. Porque él nos ama, podemos amar. Es mucho mejor cuando celebramos lo bueno en nosotros, porque esa bondad viene de Dios.

God is good

Sometimes we Catholics are too serious. I have written some blogs that are too heavy. We have to remember that God is good. It is not good to live in disillusionment. Jesus said, “God did not send his Son to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.” (John 3:17) We need to encourage each other with the Good News.

Last night we had a Lenten discussion group with twelve parishioners. Sometimes we saw things differently from one another. Eventually, we would all be able to recognize the goodness and mercy of God. We had different ways of expressing our belief, but with joy, we confidently agreed that “God is good.”

There are problems in the world. There are problems in our country. There are problems in our families and in our community. Instead of focusing on our trials and tribulations, we trust that God is good. Because of his mercy towards us, we can be merciful. Because he loves us, we can love. It’s much better when we celebrate the good in us, because that goodness comes from God.

Oh Jesús, tú nos llamas: “Síganme”. Bendice, Señor, a todos los que acogen tu llamado. Puede que el camino no sea fácil, pero tenemos la confianza de que todo es posible si caminamos contigo. Que este viaje nos abra los ojos a las maravillas de tu amor por nosotros. Oramos por toda tu gente, por todos los creyentes e incrédulos, por los líderes y seguidores. Oramos por la sanación, el perdón, la compasión, la justicia y la paz. Oramos para que, al seguirte, nosotros también podamos ser pescadores de hombres. Bendícenos en nuestro viaje.

O Jesus, you call us, “Come after me.” Bless, O Lord, all who welcome your call. The path may not be easy, but we have confidence that all things are possible if we walk with you. May this journey, open our eyes to the wonders of your love for us. We pray for all your people, for all believers and unbelievers, for leaders and followers. We pray for healing, for forgiveness, for compassion, for justice, for peace. We pray that as we follow you, we too can be fishers of men. Bless us on our journey.
