XXII DOMINGO ORDINARIO, 31 de Agosto de 2014
(Mateo 16,21-27)
Los discípulos se sorprendieron cuando Jesús les dijo que debía ir a Jerusalén para sufrir y morir.
Simplemente no podían entender que esta fuera la voluntad de Dios, después de que Pedro
había proclamado que Jesús era “el Mesías, el Hijo de Dios vivo.” ¡Era absurdo! Pero cuando
Pedro trató de disuadir al Señor, Jesús lo reprendió severamente: “¡Apártate de mí, Satanás, y no
intentes hacerme tropezar en mi camino, porque tu modo de pensar no es el de Dios, sino el de
los hombres!”
Los cristianos estamos llamados a ser discípulos de Cristo: un privilegio y un desafío. El privilegio es
que el discípulo adquiere una estrecha amistad con Dios. El mismo Jesús les dijo: “Ya no los llamo
siervos, a ustedes los llamo amigos, porque les he dado a conocer todo lo que le he oído a mi
Padre” (Juan 15, 15). Piensa en lo fantástico que es ser conocido como “amigo de Dios”. ¡Qué
magnífico honor!
El desafío es que en el camino del seguimiento a Cristo siempre surgen las dificultades, porque
hay veces en que la limitada inteligencia humana tiene que enfrentarse al misterio de la
Sabiduría Divina. Este proceso resulta a veces difícil; pero, así como a un niño le cuesta entender
la prudencia de sus padres, así también el discípulo va creciendo en sabiduría a medida que
acepta cada vez más la acción de Dios, que va formando en él un corazón nuevo.
Al principio, Pedro y los demás tuvieron dificultad para entender las obras de Dios, pero no por
eso dejaron de obedecer. Al final, todos llegaron a ser faros de luz que proyectaron la gloria de
su amado Maestro. El gozo y la fortaleza que Dios les dio, el fruto del íntimo conocimiento del
amor de Dios, compensaron con creces el costo del discipulado. Y el Señor quiere que tú
también seas su discípulo y un instrumento valioso en sus manos. ¿Lo aceptas? Si lo aceptas, serás
“amigo de Cristo”. “Amado Señor, yo quiero servirte y ser discípulo tuyo, pero no siempre me
siento capaz. Ayúdame, Señor, y dame lo que necesito para cumplir tu voluntad y seguir tu
camino.” Amen. Gracias Señor.
