Paul proclaims “God’s wisdom, secret and hidden.” The light
of Christ that blinded him on the road to Damascus has
filled his heart and mind. Freed from his blindness, he receives
strength through the Spirit to follow Christ through hardships,
dangers, and abuse.

Paul contrasts God’s wisdom with human wisdom....

Lord, may we speak and proclaim Christ crucified out of your wisdom and power. Amen.

Resumen de la Escritura

Living genuinely out of a deep inner sense of connectedness to the Trinity (God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit) is a common theme for this week’s texts. By living out of this spiritual center, we match our actions with our words and avoid the judgment the prophet Isaiah casts upon the people of Israel. Psalm 112 is a hymn of praise for the blessings God brings upon those who revere and follow. In Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, he urges them to move beyond their irtation with wisdom and to go to the deeper regions of the Spirit, the source of true wis- dom. And, nally, Jesus, in his Sermon on the Mount, calls his listeners to move beyond the mere words of the law to the deep meaning and intent of the law.
