Mt 5, 20-26
En aquel tiempo, Jesús dijo a sus discípulos: “Les aseguro que si su justicia no es mayor que la de los escribas y fariseos, ciertamente no entrarán ustedes en el Reino de los cielos.
Han oído ustedes que se dijo a los antiguos: No matarás y el que mate será llevado ante el tribunal. Pero yo les digo: Todo el que se enoje con su hermano, será llevado también ante el tribunal; el que insulte a su hermano, será llevado ante el tribunal supremo, y el que lo desprecie, será llevado al fuego del lugar de castigo.
Por lo tanto, si cuando vas a poner tu ofrenda sobre el altar, te acuerdas allí mismo de que tu hermano tiene alguna queja contra ti, deja tu ofrenda junto al altar y ve primero a reconciliarte con tu hermano, y vuelve luego a presentar tu ofrenda.
Arréglate pronto con tu adversario, mientras vas con él por el camino; no sea que te entregue al juez, el juez al policía y te metan a la cárcel. Te aseguro que no saldrás de allí hasta que hayas pagado el último centavo”.

GospelMT 5:20-26
Jesus said to his disciples:
“I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that
of the scribes and Pharisees,
you will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven.
“I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that
of the scribes and Pharisees,
you will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven.
“You have heard that it was said to your ancestors,
You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.
But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother
will be liable to judgment,
and whoever says to his brother, Raqa,
will be answerable to the Sanhedrin,
and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ will be liable to fiery Gehenna.
Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar,
and there recall that your brother
has anything against you,
leave your gift there at the altar,
go first and be reconciled with your brother,
and then come and offer your gift.
Settle with your opponent quickly while on the way to court with him.
Otherwise your opponent will hand you over to the judge,
and the judge will hand you over to the guard,
and you will be thrown into prison.
Amen, I say to you,
you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.”
You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.
But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother
will be liable to judgment,
and whoever says to his brother, Raqa,
will be answerable to the Sanhedrin,
and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ will be liable to fiery Gehenna.
Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar,
and there recall that your brother
has anything against you,
leave your gift there at the altar,
go first and be reconciled with your brother,

Amen, I say to you,
you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.”

Meditacion:
Una de las razones por la que segui mi vocacion misionera y sacerdotal es porque me enamore del Jesus de este evangelio de hoy.
Bien directo, sin correcciones politicas de ningun tipo, nos dice que "limpiemos nuestra casa antes de limpiar el templo". simple, directo y al corazon.
Nuestra justicia -dice Jesus- debe ser mayor que la de fariseos y escribas, que se sentaban en las formas y no en la sinceridad del corazon, que oraban mucho pero agotaban a las personas con mandatos absurdos y cargas pesadas.
Fijense un punto aca. En nuestra sociedad parece que pasa lo contrario... nada nos obliga a ir a misa, a seguir los preceptos; parece que si no oramos o no seguimos la Ley de Dios, nada pasa.
Y sin embargo, estamos destinados a seguirla porque es la Ley natural del amor, la compasion, la misericordia y la paz entre las personas. Y aca no importa cual es tu creencia, es algo que debemos ejercer "naturalmente", desde nuestro corazon.
Es por eso amigos y amigas que Jesus es una forma de vida, un estilo de hacer las cosas siempre mirando al projimo.
Si tu sigues esta forma de vida, sin duda iras convirtiendo tu vida en una oracion constante y un dia seguro algo hablara dentro tuyo "no estas muy lejos del Reino de los Cielos...'
"Padre ayudame a convertir mi vida en oracion" Amen

One of the reasons why I followed my missionary and priestly vocation is because I fell in love with the Jesus of this Gospel today.
Direct, without political corrections of any kind, it tells us to "clean our house before cleaning the temple." simple, direct and to the heart.
Our justice, says Jesus, must be greater than that of the Pharisees and scribes, who sat in the forms and not in the sincerity of the heart, who prayed a lot but exhausted people with absurd commands and heavy burdens.
Set a point here. In our society it seems that the opposite happens ... nothing forces us to go to mass, to follow the precepts; It seems that if we do not pray or do not follow the Law of God, nothing happens.
And yet we are destined to follow it because it is the natural Law of love, compassion, mercy and peace between people. And here it does not matter what your belief is, it is something that we must exercise "naturally", from our hearts.
That is why, friends, Jesus is a way of life, a style of doing things always looking at others.
If you follow this way of life, without a doubt you will turn your life into a constant prayer and one day something will speak within you "you are not very far from the Kingdom of Heaven ... '
"Father help me turn my life into prayer" Amen
