"A faith that thinks

Inverted the situation then, Paul decides to boast of this weakness, and chooses to badume everything in the name of the Lord Jesus: "when I am weak, I am strong". Jesus, in the Gospel, visits his country. It's Saturday and he's teaching at the synagogue.

Prophets of His Land

Whenever we look at Israel, by a diligent reading of Scripture, Love-God will appear before us: He wants and projects the best for we, his happiness is that we are more and more people, like Jesus, and share, we engage with him, his proposal for all. God created everything that exists, and released his people when it was needed … And supports us all with its proximity!

A concrete way that God must show us his total interest in our cause is through his prophets. The prophet is that man or woman who is close to the Lord, without whom he no longer conceives of his existence. He receives a message from God, but he is also the mouthpiece of the people; Average between the two. The prophet transmits the divine message with his verb, but also using symbols that capture the attention of others and come into harmony with the King of our hearts. There are true and false prophets: many of the first are killed by the same people, because they do not support the Word of God, and think that silencing the messenger silences the message, or welcomes and try to walk according to the guidelines that follow from God. On the other hand, the false prophets are "professionals", paid, sycophants, condescending; they become old, then. They are also known as "prophets of the court": these are people who are close to power, whispering to the president – in the name of "God" – what he wants to hear. To all of these, from the Gospel of tomorrow, Sunday, a phrase emerges that reaches our days: "No one is a prophet in his land". Let's See This

The first pbadage relates the vocation of Ezekiel, who saw the glory of God, heard his voice and was inhabited by his spirit; Now he is sent to Israel, rebellious and hard people. Ezequiel must talk to people, whether they listen to him or not. Of course, it is essential that Ezequiel does not deteriorate in this mission, for whatever reason. He should not be afraid, because the Lord accompanies him. Despite feeling lonely, he does not have to see it as a weakness.

The Letter to the Corinthians opens precisely with the preceding comment: Paul confesses: he saw his carnal weakness as "a thorn in the back". He is aware of his limitations and suffers the consequences. Similarly, the Apostle is clear that this weakness is an antidote to pride, but he does not want to feel that. The Lord answers him: "My grace is sufficient for you, weakness is our strength." Returning to the situation, Paul decides to boast of this weakness, and chooses to badume everything in the name of the Lord Jesus: "when I am weak, I am strong". Jesus, in the Gospel, visits his country. It's Saturday and he's teaching at the synagogue. All listeners are suspended from their words, astonished because they know Him and their loved ones, questioning about the origin of such wisdom and being able to perform miracles but, not being able to agree with the two facts, they draw near to divine grace. Jesus says that no one is a prophet in his house, he heals some sick and, stupefied by the lack of faith of his compatriots, continues his mission in other cities

In this pbadage, what is attributed to Einstein arrives, which states: "There are people who do not believe miracles, and there are those who believe that everything around us is a miracle." scientist concludes: "I belong to this second category". To see, you must believe, I said in another episode

There are prophets on this earth. Men and women who, even without professing a creed, point to the horizon that Jesus designed for Christians. Some were killed. Others are in jail or have fled the country. Those who are here carry the Word to the limits of everyone's heart and national consciousness. Ezekiel speaks to a deported Israel; we to a destroyed Venezuela: let's not be afraid to know that we are physically weak. On the contrary, let us live the grace of understanding that there lies our strength, that which will enable us to caress a new future. Prophets in Venezuela.
