Wisdom and Risk
If
God were to ask you the same question as Solomon, “Ask
something of me and I will give it to you” what would you ask
for? Solomon in the first reading, because of the great
responsibility given to him as King of Israel, risks power,
riches, a long life, the life of his enemies over wisdom.
Solomon asks for an “understanding heart” to be a just ruler.
What do you desire the most? What would you risk for the
Kingdom? Circumstances in life might tempt us to ask for
health, prosperity, security in life which are all good things
and God promises them all to those who believe, but would
you risk them all to obtain the Kingdom?
When you meditate in this question remember two things: 1)
Wisdom ultimately comes from God and, 2) with wisdom, all
other blessings will flow. Your reward is in heaven, yes God
will bless you here on earth, but seek first the kingdom of God
and its righteousness and all shall be added unto you” (Mt.
6:33). Isn’t the Kingdom worth the risk?
With much love,
POPE FRANCIS' PRAYER
INTENTIONS FOR
AUGUST
“That sports may be an opportunity for friendly
encoun-ters between peoples and may contribute to peace in the
world.”
His intention for evangelization is: “That Christians may
live the Gospel, giving witness to faith, honesty, and love
of neighbor”

Sabiduría y riesgo
Si Dios te hiciera la misma pregunta que a Salomón,
"pide algo de mí y te lo daré" ¿qué pedirías? Salomón
en la primera lectura, debido a la gran responsabilidad
que se le dio como Rey, arriesga el poder, las riquezas,
una larga vida, la vida de sus enemigos, todo por la
sabiduría. Salomón pide un "corazón comprensivo"
para ser un gobernante justo.
¿Qué deseas más? ¿Qué arriesgarías tu por el Reino?
Las circunstancias de la vida nos pueden tentar a pedir
salud, prosperidad, seguridad en la vida las cuales son
todas cosas buenas y Dios se las promete a todos
aquellos que creen, pero ¿lo arriesgarías a todo para
obtener el Reino?
Cuando meditas en esta pregunta, recuerda dos cosas:
1) La sabiduría solo viene de Dios y, 2) con la sabiduría,
fluirán todas las demás bendiciones. Tu recompensa
está en el cielo, por supuesto que Dios te bendecirá
aquí en la tierra, pero busca primero el reino de Dios y
su justicia, y todo lo demás te dará por añadidura "(Mt
6:33). ¿A caso no vale la pena de arriesgarlo todo por
el Reino?
Con mucho amor,
