Resumen de la Escritura

Like us, the Israelites struggle to be consistently faithful to God. God therefore allows a foreign king to rule them until the people come to their senses and cry out for help. The prophet Deborah gives instructions for the battle that will begin the deliverance of the people. The readings from Psalms and Zechariah demonstrate that this pattern of unfaithfulness and restoration has occurred frequently in the history of God’s people. In Thessalonians, Paul echoes what Jesus says in last week’s Gospel reading: We must always be prepared for the return of Christ because we do not know when it will occur. God gives us resources to use for the kingdom, and in Matthew Jesus indicates that God will ask for an account of how well we have used them.

Psalm 123:1-4

1 I raise my eyes to you you who rule heaven. 2 Just as the eyes of servants attend to their masters’ hand, just as the eyes of a female servant attend to her mistress’ hand that’s how our eyes attend to the LORD our God until he has mercy on us. 3 Have mercy on us, LORD! Have mercy because we’ve had more than enough shame. 4 We’ve had more than enough mockery from the self-confident, more than enough shame from the proud.

I raise my eyes to you—you who rule heaven” (CEB). Immediately I think of the climactic scene in Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God. Janie and her lover, Tea Cake, and their friends have regretfully decided to wait out a hurricane. In the early hours of the storm,...

God of the oppressed, you have revealed yourself to be a liberator of the enslaved, a balm to the downtrodden, and a friend to the lonely. Help us to trust you to be that still. Free us from the crush of oppressive power. And teach us to wield power justly when we hold it. Amen.
