LA FE EN ACCIÓN En el Evangelio de hoy los apóstoles le piden a Jesús: “Aumenta nuestra fe” (Lucas 17:5). Él responde con dos relatos sobre cómo poner la fe en acción –la manera más segura de aumentar la propia fe. El relato sobre la “fe del tamaño de una semilla de mostaza” (Lucas 17:6) muestra como un poquito de fe puede obrar maravillas cuando se la pone en acción. El relato del siervo fiel “porque éste cumplió con su obligación” (Lucas 17:10) nos recuerda que poner el don de la fe en acción es esencial en la vocación del discípulo. En la lectura de la segunda carta a Timoteo se recomienda “que reavives el don de Dios. . . con la ayuda del Espíritu Santo, que habita en nosotros” (2 Timoteo 1:6, 14). Aquéllos que han puesto su fe en acción serán como “el justo” en la lectura de Habacuc hoy, que “vivirá por su fe”. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co. LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — A pesar de la violencia, la destrucción y la ruina, el justo vivirá a causa de su fe (Habacuc 1:2-3; 2:2-4). Salmo — Señor, que no seamos sordos a tu voz (Salmo 95 [94]). Segunda lectura — Tolera dificultades con la fuerza que viene de Dios (2 Timoteo 1:6-8, 13-14). Evangelio — Señor, auméntanos la fe! (Lucas 17:5-10).

FAITH IN ACTION In today’s Gospel the apostles entreat Jesus: “Increase our faith” (Luke 17:5). He responds with two stories about putting faith into action—the surest way to increase one’s faith. The story of “faith the size of a mustard seed” (Luke 17:6) shows that even a tiny bit of faith can work wonders when it is put into action. The story of the faithful servants who did “what [they] were obliged to do” (Luke 17:10) reminds us that putting the gift of faith into action is essential to the vocation of discipleship. In the reading from the second letter to Timothy we are encouraged to “stir into flame the gift of God . . . with the help of the Holy Spirit that dwells within us” (2 Timothy 1:6, 14). Those who put their faith into action will be like “the just one” in today’s reading from Habakkuk, who, “because of his faith, shall live” (Habakkuk 2:4). © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co. TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — In spite of violence, destruction, and ruin, the just person, because of faith, will live (Habakkuk 1:2-3; 2:2-4). Psalm — If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts (Psalm 95). Second Reading — Bear hardship with the strength that comes from God (2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14). Gospel — Lord, increase our faith! (Luke 17:5-10).
