St.Michaels Question and Answer Forum
Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope, but do it with gentleness and reverence, keeping your conscience clear, so that, when you are maligned, those who defame your good conduct in Christ may themselves be put to shame. —1 Peter 3:15-16

Stewardship Reflections
Second Sunday in Ordinary Time January 18/19, 2020 -In today’s Gospel, John the Baptist shows us how what we do and say reveals to others what we really believe. He has a clear sense of who he is and who he is not, and by his life’s work he gives testimony to God’s active presence in people’s lives. He challenges us to examine how our actions reveal our attitudes, testify to our beliefs and show how those beliefs reveal our true selves to others. Good stewards of their faith are aware of the sort of God they reveal to the world by their words and actions. Do our acts witness to a God who takes away that which alienates people from God and each other? Do our actions truly reveal God’s presence in the world today?
Segundo domingo en tiempo ordinario - - En el Evangelio de hoy, Juan el Bautista nos muestra cómo lo que hacemos y decimos revela a los demás lo que realmente creemos. Él tiene un claro sentido de quién es y quién no es, y por el trabajo de su vida da testimonio de la presencia activa de Dios en la vida de las personas. Nos reta a examinar cómo nuestras acciones revelan nuestras actitudes, testifican nuestras creencias y muestran cómo esas creencias revelan nuestro verdadero ser a los demás. Los buenos corresponsables de su fe son conscientes del tipo de Dios que revelan al mundo a través de sus palabras y acciones. ¿Nuestros actos dan testimonio de un Dios que quita lo que aleja a las personas de Dios y de los demás? ¿Nuestras acciones realmente revelan la presencia de Dios en el mundo de hoy?
