Como un rey que se prepara para la batalla o un

contratista a punto de construir una torre, tenemos que

contar el costo a medida que nos proponemos seguir a

Jesús.

Nuestro Señor hoy nos está diciendo por adelantado el

sacrificio que tomará. Sus palabras no están dirigidas a

Sus pocos elegidos, los Doce, sino a las "grandes

multitudes", a cualquiera, a quien quiera ser su

discípulo.

Eso solo hace que su llamada sea aún más severa e

intransigente. Debemos "odiar" nuestras viejas vidas,

renunciar a todas las cosas terrenales en las que

confiamos, elegirlo a Él por encima de cada persona y

posesión. Una vez más, nos dice que las cosas que

tenemos, incluso nuestros lazos y obligaciones

familiares, pueden convertirse en una excusa, un

obstáculo que nos impide entregarnos completamente

a Él.

Jesús nos trae la sabiduría salvadora que se nos

prometió en la primera lectura de hoy. Él es esa

Sabiduría salvadora.

Cargado por muchas preocupaciones terrenales, las

cargas de nuestro cuerpo y sus necesidades, nunca

podríamos ver más allá de las cosas de este mundo;

nunca podríamos detectar el diseño e intención

celestial de Dios. Entonces, en Su misericordia, Él nos

envió Su Espíritu, Su Sabiduría desde lo alto, para

enderezar nuestro camino hacia Él.

Jesús mismo pagó el precio para liberarnos de la

sentencia impuesta a Adán, que recordamos en el

Salmo de hoy. No más será el trabajo de nuestras

manos una aflicción; ya no estamos destinados a

volver al polvo.

Al igual que Onésimo en la Epístola de hoy, hemos

sido redimidos. Se nos ha dado una nueva familia y

una nueva herencia, hijos del Padre, hermanos y

hermanas en el Señor.

Ahora somos libres para ir tras Él, para servirlo, ya no

somos esclavos de los lazos de nuestras vidas pasadas.

En Cristo, todos nuestros ayeres han pasado. Vivimos

en lo que el Salmo hoy describe bellamente como el

amanecer, listo para ser lleno de Su bondad. Porque

nos ha dado sabiduría de corazón y nos ha enseñado a

contar nuestros días correctamente.

Like a king making ready for battle or a contractor about to build a tower, we have to count the cost as we set out to follow Jesus. Our Lord today is telling us up front the sacrifice it will take. His words aren’t addressed to His chosen few, the Twelve, but rather to the “great crowds”—to anyone, to whoever wishes to be His disciple. That only makes His call all the more stark and uncompromising. We are to “hate” our old lives, to renounce all the earthly things we rely upon, to choose Him above every person and possession. Again He tells us that the things we have—even our family ties and obligations—can become an excuse, an obstacle that keeps us from giving ourselves completely to Him. Jesus brings us the saving wisdom we are promised in today’s First Reading. He is that saving Wisdom. Weighed down by many earthly concerns, the burdens of our body and its needs, we could never see beyond the things of this world; we could never detect God’s heavenly design and intention. So in His mercy He sent us His Spirit, His Wisdom from on high, to make straight our path to Him. Jesus Himself paid the price to free us from the sentence imposed on Adam, which we recall in today’s Psalm. No more will the work of our hands be an affliction; no more are we destined to turn back to dust. Like Onesimus in today’s Epistle, we have been redeemed. We have been given a new family and a new inheritance, made children of the Father, brothers and sisters in the Lord. We are free now to come after Him, to serve Him—no longer slaves to the ties of our past lives. In Christ, all our yesterdays have passed. We live in what the Psalm today beautifully describes as the daybreak, ready to be filled with His kindness. For He has given us wisdom of heart and taught us to number our days aright.
