Reflection
Believe It or Not, God Calls Us to Life
Ezekiel’s message of rising from open graves may sound like a scene from a horror movie but because we know that the message came to us from God we have good reason to hope in it. If we feel “buried” by life’s burdens, we know that we are called by God to be lifted to a freer life. If we or our loved ones have died and are buried we know that isn’t the end of our story, even after the physical grave God calls us to life with Him.
The Psalm reminds us to call out to the Lord from our depths and to trust in Him.
St. Paul speaks about death as a result of sin and of the power of righteousness, which comes from the Spirit of God, to overcome this death. When we have the Spirit of Christ in us we belong to Him and draw our very life from Him.
There is much to examine in the Gospel story of Lazarus’ death and resurrection. Consider for example Martha’s faith when she speaks it at the intellectual level. She absolutely believes in Jesus’ teaching though it seems she doesn’t fully understand it. It has not yet dropped down to her heart. She knows God will give Jesus whatever He asks but does not believe that Jesus will ask for her brother to be resurrected, that is too incredible. Do we live our faith this way? Do we say that with God all things are possible, but then are shocked when the impossible occurs because we could not believe God would do that for us? To be sure, when miracles happen in our lives, just as for Martha, they are for the glory of God, so that through our experience others will come to call Him from their depths and trust in His mercy.

God Calls each of us from death to life, from sin to repentance,
from apathy to generosity.

Reflexión
Créanlo o no, Dios nos llama a la vida
El mensaje de Ezequiel de abrir los sepulcros y hacer salir a los muertos nos puede parecer como una escena de una película de terror, pero sabiendo que este mensaje proviene de Dios, tenemos buenas razones para que nos dé esperanza. Si nos sentimos “sepultados” por las responsabilidades de la vida, sabemos que Dios nos llama para conducirnos a una vida más libre. Si nosotros o nuestros seres queridos hemos muerto y estamos enterrados, sabemos que eso no es el fin de nuestra historia, aún después de la tumba, Dios nos llama a la vida con Él.
El salmo nos recuerda que debemos gritar al Señor desde lo hondo y confiar en Él.
San Pablo habla de la muerte como el resultado del pecado y habla del poder de la rectitud que proviene desde el Espíritu de Dios para superar esta muerte. Cuando el Espíritu de Cristo está en nosotros, pertenecemos a Él y Él nos da la misma vida.
Hay mucho para examinar en la historia del Evangelio sobre la muerte y la resurrección de Lázaro. Consideren, por ejemplo, la fe de Marta cuando ella habla de ello a un nivel intelectual. Ella cree absolutamente en la enseñanza de Jesús, aunque parece que no la entiende del todo. Esta enseñanza todavía no ha llegado hasta su corazón. Ella sabe que Dios le dará a Jesús lo que Le pida, pero no cree que Jesús Le pida que resucite a su hermano, eso sería demasiado increíble. ¿Vivimos nuestra fe de esta manera? ¿Decimos que con Dios todo es posible, pero después nos asombramos cuando ocurre lo imposible porque no podemos creer que Dios haría tal cosa por nosotros? Desde luego, cuando ocurren milagros en nuestras vidas, como en el caso de Marta, sirven para la gloria de Dios, para que, por medio de nuestra experiencia, otros gritarán a Dios desde lo más hondo y confiarán en Su misericordia.
