XIII DOMENICA DEL TEMPO ORDINARIO 26 Giugno 2016 SIAMO giunti al cuore del Vangelo di Luca. Questo evangelista, infatti, colloca la predicazione di Gesù nella cornice di un lungo “viaggio” che Gesù intraprende dalla Galilea verso Gerusalemme, dove si compirà il suo destino di morte e risurrezione (Lc 9,51-19,28). Non si tratta però solo di uno spostamento geografico, ma di un cammino interiore, che richiede la totale adesione di Gesù alla volontà del Padre. Anche a coloro che intendono seguire Gesù viene chiesto un impegno senza condizioni. I tre brevi episodi di chiamata (Vangelo) confermano che per il servizio del Regno si deve rinunciare a ogni possesso e ci si deve liberare anche dei legami umani più cari. Per tutti il Vangelo comporta rischi e rinunce per una fedeltà a tutta prova. La prima lettura rafforza le esigenze che la missione richiede. Il profeta Elìa trasmette a Eliseo la chiamata del Signore ed egli comprende che per rispondere occorre lasciare tutto. L’apostolo Paolo (II Lettura) ci assicura che, con la sua Pasqua, Cristo ci ha chiamati alla libertà, sottraendoci alla schiavitù del peccato, che ci impedisce di «camminare (cioè “vivere”) secondo lo Spirito». 13TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR C June 26, 2016 In today’s Gospel, Jesus speaks of the severity and the unconditional nature of Christian discipleship. Discipleship requires a wholehearted commitment to the Lord and a generous spirit of service toward his people. The demands are severe. In the gospel, Luke also uses the journey motif to teach something about the road that Christians must walk. It is similar to the road Jesus himself journeyed, involving gross misunderstanding and rejection and requiring a great deal of internal strength and energy. To be a disciple of Jesus requires total commitment on our part. It involves homelessness, not really belonging anywhere. To belong to Jesus must supersede all other obligations. The journey is final, its consequences ultimate. To be called does not require our perfection. There is no possibility of a lukewarm response; the Gospel requires all or nothing. The disciples speak the ultimate message of the Lord, “Say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you'” (Luke 10:9). As signs of victory over evil, the disciples have spectacular powers, demonstrating the awesome power of God. They are to rejoice, though not in the power of God active in them or even in the success of their message: Joy comes from the promise of life that has been given to them. We are today’s disciples. Our mandate is the same: to speak by our words and deeds the love of our God, and most of all, to rejoice, because he has called us and gifted us with such abundant life.
