CHOICE “If you choose you can keep the commandments,” Sirach
tells us. God “has set before you fire and water; to whichever
you choose, stretch forth your hand” (Sirach 15:15, 16). This
is a great mystery: God does not control us so
completely that we cannot choose our own path.
We have certain boundaries, of course, but no one
but we can choose our way within those bounda-
ries.
In today’s reading from Matthew’s Gospel,
Jesus reminds us of our freedom and our responsi-
bility for our lives. He calls us to look beyond the
words of the commandments, all the way to their
meaning. Look beyond the adultery to the selfish-
ness that poisons our love. Look beyond the mur-
der to the anger that eats away at our compassion.
Look beyond the perjured testimony to the lies
and deception that drive our behavior.
Our vocation is to choose life for ourselves, and to
choose a path through our part of the world that helps make
life possible and more abundant for others as well. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
TÚ DECIDES “Si tú lo quieres, puedes guardar los mandamientos”, nos
dice Eclesiástico (Sirácide). Dios “ha puesto delante de ti fue-
go y agua; extiende la mano a lo que quieras” (Eclo 15:15,
16). Este es un gran misterio: Dios no nos controla
tan completamente que no podemos elegir nuestro
propio camino. Es cierto que tenemos límites, pero
nadie sino nosotros mismos podemos elegir el ca-
mino dentro de esos límites.
En la lectura de hoy del Evangelio según
san Mateo, Jesús nos recuerda que somos libres y
responsables de nuestra vida. Nos llama a ir más
allá de las palabras de los mandamientos para con-
siderar su significado. Si vas más allá del adulterio
verás el egoísmo que envenena nuestro amor. Si
vas más allá del asesinato verás la ira que corroe
nuestra compasión. Si vas más allá del falso testi-
monio (perjurio) verás las mentiras y engaños que producen
este comportamiento.
Nuestra vocación es elegir la vida para nosotros mismos,
y tomar un camino a través de nuestro mundo que haga la
vida posible y más abundante para otros también. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
El siglo pasado en la década de los 70s, un joven mexi-
cano cruzaba el desierto fronterizo entre México
y Estados Unidos. Un sacerdote lo encontró y se
ofreció a cruzarlo en su camioneta a Estados
Unidos. El sacerdote le dijo que si regresaba a su
tierra lo estaría esperando en Santa Ana de Gua-
dalupe, un pequeño rancho cerca de Jalostotitlán,
en la región de Los Altos de Jalisco, México.
Con el tiempo, el joven regresó a México
y fue en busca de su buen samaritano. Pregun-
tando por él, la gente del pueblo lo llevó a una
capilla donde se sorprendió al ver la foto de su
bienhechor en la tumba de santo Toribio Romo.
Muchos inmigrantes que relatan lo mis-
mo acerca de un sacerdote o buen samaritano
que rescata indocumentados en el desierto, ali-
mentándolos, llevándolos a Estados Unidos, in-
cluso, diciéndoles dónde encontrar trabajo.
En 1928, Toribio Romo fue asesinado a
la edad de 28 años durante “La Cristiana” (1926
–1929). Este joven sacerdote murió a manos de un gobierno
cruel que no sabia respetar los derechos humanos. Ahora
como santo se dedica a ayudar a los pobres que sufren a cau-
sa de leyes inmigratorias que tampoco respetan los derechos
humanos. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
By the early 1950s some scholars were calling
for the restoration of Communion of the faithful on
Good Friday, since by then only a priest
received, consuming the host from the Ho-
ly Thursday repository. In 1955 the new
Good Friday liturgy was timed to begin at
three o’clock everywhere, and included the
option of Holy Communion, but without
the Precious Blood that had originally been
part of the liturgy. Today, there is increas-
ing debate among theologians. Some feel
that it would be better to fast from the Eu-
charist on Good Friday, focusing on the
mystery of the cross and highlighting the
Easter Communion. Others say that this
Communion infuses the sadness of the day
with awareness of Christ’s victory. It is not
a day of mourning, of course, and the Pas-
sion according to John grounds the liturgy
in a sense of Christ’s victory over death
and the triumph of the cross. The tradition
is rich and varied, and we are still in the
early stages of recovering an ancient way of doing things.
Why do we call the day “good”? The English and Dutch
languages share this name, and its origin stems from the name
“God’s Friday.” The traditional name for the day in Latin is
Feria VI in Parasceve, which translates as “The Sixth Day of
the Week of Preparation.” Other languages make do with
“Holy Friday.” In another part of England, as in Denmark, the
people used to call it “Long Friday,” a good description for a
quiet day without work and no chance for play or a good meal! —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
