Pastoral Reflection Reflecting on God s Word First apprentice, then journeyman, and finally master. That s the way someone travels when learning a trade. But before setting out one must find a trustworthy master who will accept him to study with her. Then he must commit himself to the journey of learning the trade. By watching and listening to the master, by imitating her example and following her advice, the disciple gradually learns her ways. The Scriptures this week present a journeyman, Jonah, and a master, Jesus. Why did people trust and follow them? People responded to Jonah because he was traveling the way of the Lord himself; he had repented and set out on the journey of discipleship. They responded to Jesus because he was a master worthy of their trust and because he invited them to be his disciples, to walk at his side and to study his ways. People followed them not because of their words, but because they knew the way. Virginia Stillwell Copyright 2014, World Library Publications. All rights reserved. Refleción Pastoral Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios Primero aprendiz, después obrero y por fin maestro. Ésa es la travesía de cualquier persona que está aprendiendo un oficio. Pero antes de partir hay que encontrar un maestro (o maestra) confiable que nos acepte a estudiar bajo él (o ella). Luego el estudiante tiene que comprometerse a hacer la travesía de aprender un oficio. Fijándose en el maestro, escuchándolo, imitando su ejemplo y siguiendo sus consejos, el discípulo llega a aprender el estilo del maestro. Las Escrituras de esta semana presentan a un obrero, Jonás, y un maestro, Jesús. Por qué la gente confió en ellos y los siguieron? La gente le respondió a Jonás porque él iba por el camino del Señor, se había arrepentido y partió para hacer la travesía del discipulado. Le respondieron a Jesús porque él era el maestro digno de la confianza de ellos y porque los invitó a ser sus discípulos, a caminar junto a él y a estudiar su estilo de vida. La gente los siguió no por las palabras que ellos dijeron, sino porque conocían el camino. Virginia Stillwell Derechos de autor 2014, World Library Publications. Todos los derechos reservados.

LIVING GOD S WORD There is one problem with Christian discipleship. No one will ever become a master. The most we can strive for is to be journeymen, like Jonah and Jesus disciples. We can only show others the way if we commit ourselves to the journey and walk at the Master s side, trusting and listening and following the ways of the Lord.
