God’s Law
Scripture has always held God’s law to be the path to human happiness. In today’s first reading, Ezra the priest reads the scroll of the law to the people returned from exile. They weep—then are joyful. Israel’s relationship with God had always been defined by how they kept and lived God’s law. The author of Psalm 96 likewise praises the law of God as the source of wisdom, joy and enlightenment, purity and justice. In his advice to the bickering Corinthians, Paul points out that, just as God has made all parts of a human body essential for the health of the whole, living as “Christ’s body” requires that each member be recognized as necessary for the good of all. Finally, in Luke’s Gospel Jesus claims that the Spirit is send- ing him to relieve human suffering. Like Ezra, he is reading from a scroll, proclaiming God’s “law” of mercy to those in need.

La Ley De Dios
La Escritura siempre ha sostenido que la ley de Dios es el camino para la felicidad humana.
En la primera lectura, el sacerdote Esdras lee el rollo de la ley al pueblo que regresó del exilio.
El pueblo llora y luego se alegra. La relación de Israel con Dios siempre se ha definido por cómo guardaba y vivía la ley de Dios. El autor del salmo 96 también alaba la ley de Dios como el origen de la sabiduría, alegría e iluminación, pureza y justicia.
En su consejo con los corintios discutidores, Pablo señala que, al igual que Dios ha hecho todas las partes del cuerpo humano esenciales para la salud integral, vivir como “el cuerpo de Cristo” requiere que cada miembro sea reconocido como necesario para el bien de todos. Por último, en el Evangelio de Lucas, Jesús afirma que el Espíritu lo envía a aliviar el sufrimiento
El espíritu del Señor está sobre mi, porque me ha ungido
para llevar a los pobres la buena nueva.
— Lucas 4:18a

DID YOU KNOW?
Talk to your teenagers about Instagram
Teens and social media have been in the news a lot over the past several months, as research shows how damaging social media sites can be for self-esteem, productivity, and overall well-being. Instagram has been called out, with research citing harm done by filters and by bullying in private messages. How can parents protect their children from the negative impacts such a popular and prevalent site cause? Experts recommend keeping open lines of communication with your teenagers, talk- ing to them often about what they see and how they feel about it. Use age and activity limits or monitoring to keep tabs on how your teens are using Instagram and other social media sites. For more information, read the Associated Press’
“Instagram and teens: How to keep your kids safe,” at https://
apnews.com/article/technology-social-media-instagram-parents -guide-d5124f7229bbd6a892d9ac487cc04f96.
Platique con sus adolescentes sobre Instagram
Los adolescentes y las redes sociales han estado en las noticias durante los últimos meses, ya que las investigaciones muestran cuán dañinos pueden ser los sitios de redes sociales para la au- toestima, la productividad y el bienestar general. Instagram ha sido criticado, con investigaciones que citan el daño causado por los filtros y el acoso en los mensajes privados. ¿Cómo pue- den los padres de familia proteger a sus hijos de los impactos negativos que causa un sitio tan popular y prevalente? Los ex- pertos recomiendan mantener abiertas las líneas de comunica- ción con sus adolescentes, hablando con ellos a menudo sobre lo que ven y cómo se sienten al respecto. Use límites de edad y actividad o monitoreo para controlar cómo sus adolescentes usan Instagram y otros sitios de redes sociales.
