Riflessione del mese di aprile
RISORGERÒ NEL MIO POPOLO
(Oscar Arnulfo Romero)
Spesso hanno minacciato di uccidermi.
Come cristiano devo dire che non credo nella morte
senza resurrezione: se mi uccidono, risorgerò nel
popolo salvadoregno. Lo dico senza superbia, con la
più grande umiltà. In quanto pastore ho l'obbligo, per
divina disposizione, di dare la mia vita per coloro che
amo ossia per tutti i salvadoregni, anche per coloro
che potrebbero assassinarmi. Se le minacce
giungessero a compimento, fin d'ora offro a Dio il mio
sangue per la redenzione del Salvador.
Il martirio è una grazia di Dio che non credo di
meritare. Ma se Dio accetta il sacrificio della mia vita, il
mio sangue sia seme di libertà e segno che la
speranza sarà presto realtà. La mia morte, se Dio
l'accetta, sia per la libertà del mio popolo e sia una
testimonianza di speranza per il futuro.
Può dire anche, se mi uccideranno che perdono e
benedico quelli che lo faranno. Dio voglia che si
convincano di perdere il loro tempo.
Morirà un vescovo, ma la Chiesa di Dio, ossia il
popolo, non perirà mai.
LA PACE (Madre Teresa di Calcutta)
Possa oggi esserci la pace.
Possa tu avere fiducia nelle tue possibilità,
che tu sia esattamente dove avresti voluto essere.
Possa tu non dimenticare le infinite
possibilità che nascono dalla fede.
Possa tu usare questi doni che hai ricevuto
e trasmettere l'amore che ti è stato donato.
Sii contento di sapere di essere figlio di Dio.
Sia questa presenza fissata nelle tue ossa e
permetti alla tua anima di essere libera di cantare,
ballare, glorificare e amare.
Sia così per ognuno di voi.

DOMINGO DE RAMOS EN LA PASION DEL SEÑOR
17 DE ABRIL DE 2011
Tomado de la Palabra entre nosotros :
¡Gracias Jesús redentor nuestro por que por tu santa cruz redimiste al
mundo ! Gracias por los Clavos que atravesaron las manos y los pies y
por la Lanza que te traspaso el Corazón. Atraviesa mi
Corazón con tu amor , Señor y enciendeme en el con un fuego de amor por ti, que queme en mi toda oscuridad.
Gracias Jesus Salvador nuestro , por tu Corona de espinas. Yo quiero coronarte como Rey
mio, Rey de reyes y señor del Universo. En la cruz fuiste levantado con intenciones perversas ; ahora yo te bendigo y te exalto como Dios y Señor , con vítores de
alabanza y
adoración. Gracias Jesús maestro compasivo ,por la Sangre y el agua que fluyeron de tu
costado, para purificarme y cubrirme de tu misericordia. Lava todos mis pecados
hoy, Señor. Derrama tu Sangre preciosa sobre todos los fieles y especialmente los
que no te conocen, para que experimenten la vida que procede solo de ti. Gracias,
Jesús, Dios y hombre verdadero , por tu evangelio de justicia, por tus Milagros de
bondad , por tus sacramentos de vida y por tu iglesia Salvadora , Gracias , Jesús ,
por tu muerte redentora , por tu resurrección gloriosa , por tu
intercesión ponderosa , por tu madre que la hiciste nuestra y gracias por el don inestimable de la
Sagrada Eucaristía , en donde eres Sacrificio, alimento y compañia.
