Lc 5, 12-16
En aquel tiempo, estando Jesús en un poblado, llegó un leproso, y al ver a Jesús, se postró rostro en tierra, diciendo: “Señor, si quieres, puedes curarme”. Jesús extendió la mano y lo tocó, diciendo: “Quiero. Queda limpio”. Y al momento desapareció la lepra. Entonces Jesús le ordenó que no lo dijera a nadie y añadió: “Ve, preséntate al sacerdote y ofrece por tu purificación lo que Moisés prescribió. Eso les servirá de testimonio”.
Y su fama se extendía más y más. Las muchedumbres acudían a oírlo y a ser curados de sus enfermedades. Pero Jesús se retiraba a lugares solitarios para orar.

GospelLK 5:12-16
It happened that there was a man full of leprosy in one of the towns where Jesus was;
and when he saw Jesus,
he fell prostrate, pleaded with him, and said,
“Lord, if you wish, you can make me clean.”
Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him, and said,
“I do will it. Be made clean.”
And the leprosy left him immediately.
Then he ordered him not to tell anyone, but
“Go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing
what Moses prescribed; that will be proof for them.”
The report about him spread all the more,
and great crowds assembled to listen to him
and to be cured of their ailments,
but he would withdraw to deserted places to pray.

Meditacion:
Volviendo de mis vacaciones, retornamos a la buena costumbre de las meditaciones del Evangelio diario mis amigos.
Aun estamos en "tiempo de Navidad" hasta este domingo que comenzaremos otro tiempo ordinario.
El evangelio de hoy nos presenta un ciego muy particular, un ciego que tenia la fe de creer que Jesus podia curarlo.
Y Jesus lo cura, reafirmando su deseo "quiero, quedas curado" y a continuacion le dice que vaya ante el sacerdote del templo y ofrezca una purificacion.
Cuando muchas veces recibimos milagros de Dios, cuando nos va bien, cuando todo parece encaminado nos acordamos de ir a la Parroquia y dar gracias frente al Santisimo?
Y cuando tenemos problemas, cuando estamos ciegos por nuestras preocupaciones y problemas.. nos acordamos de ponerlas en manos de Dios para que las resuelva?
Si Dios pudo sanar ciegos, expulsar demonios, resucitar muertos... creen ustedes que no puede resolver cualquier problema que tengamos?
Pero el punto es que debemos ser agradecidos y si recibimos la gracia de ver resueltos nuestros problemas, debemos, a nuestra vez, compartir esa gracias con los demas... ayudando, dando de lo que tenemos, cambiando nuestro corazon.
Hermanos, esta es la ultima semana de Navidad; antes de comenzar un tiempo ordinario, miremos al pesebre y sepamos reconocer con sinceridad las ayudas de nuestro Padre en el Cielo y pongamos en sus manos nuestras intenciones para este año.
"Señor Dios, te agradezco los favores recibidos el pasado año y te pido sigas iluminandome para caminar en tu gracias cada dia de este nuevo año" Amen

Returning from my vacation, we return to the good habit of the daily Gospel meditations my friends.
We are still in "Christmas time" until this Sunday that we will begin another ordinary time.
Today's Gospel presents us with a very particular blind man, a blind man who had the faith to believe that Jesus could heal him.
And Jesus heals him, reaffirming his desire "I want, you are healed" and then tells him to go before the temple priest and offer a purification.
When we often receive miracles from God, when we are doing well, when everything seems on track do we remember to go to the Parish and give thanks in front of the Blessed One?
And when we have problems, when we are blind because of our worries and problems .. do we remember to put them in God's hands to solve them?
If God could heal the blind, drive out demons, raise the dead ... do you think he can't solve any problem we have?
But the point is that we must be grateful and if we receive the grace to see our problems resolved, we must, in turn, share that thanks with others ... helping, giving what we have, changing our hearts.
Brothers, this is the last week of Christmas; Before starting an ordinary time, let's look at the manger and know how to sincerely acknowledge the help of our Father in Heaven and put into our hands our intentions for this year.
"Lord God, I thank you for the favors received last year and I ask you to continue to enlighten me to walk in your thanks every day of this new year" Amen
