"The Good Shepherd" It is the Sunday of the Good Shepherd. Today in Peter is fulfilled the prophecy that Jesus made when he called him: "I will make you a fisher of men" Peter previously fished in the Sea of Galilee and was Patching the nets when the lord called him. He had to learn from Jesus the new way of fishing during the three years of public life, but especially in the last days of Jesus' life, In his passion; When he denied it and realized that only love and forgiveness convince people. Today Pedro is doing his first experience of Fisherman of men, is putting the auditor in his reality. He is calling the conversion to realize that they were in the direction of God. In fact, this is how you and I are continually killing the author of life to Jesus of Nazareth, with our attitudes and sins condemned to die on the cross. The good news is that the one who hung from a tree, whom we condemn to the cross is Risen and forgives us as forgiving Peter and others wants to be our Shepherd. Christ is the Good Shepherd because he knows his sheep: (I know my sheep and they know me, what else do you want? <Jesús knows you> A priest’s Homily

“El Buen Pastor” Es el domingo del buen pastor. Hoy en Pedro se cumple la profecía que Jesús le Hizo al llamarlo: “te hare pescador de hombres” Pedro antes pescaba en el mar de Galilea y estaba Remendando las redes cuando el señor lo llamo. Tuvo que aprender con Jesús el Nuevo modo de pescar durante los 3 años de vida publica, pero sobre todo en los últimos días de la vida de Jesús, en su pasión; cuando lo negó y se dio cuenta que solo el amor y el perdón convencen a las personas. Hoy Pedro esta haciendo su primera experiencia de pescador de hombres, esta poniendo al auditor en su realidad. Los esta llamando a la conversión, es darse cuenta que iban en la dirección opuesta a la de Dios. En realidad es así, tu y yo continuamente estamos matando al autor de la vida a Jesús de Nazaret, con nuestra actitudes y pecados al mismo que condenaron a morir en la cruz. La Buena noticia es que a ese que colgaron de un madero, al que condenamos a la cruz esta Resucitado y nos perdona como perdono a Pedro y a toda la humanidad quiere ser nuestro Pastor. “Cristo es el Buen Pastor!” porque conoce a sus ovejas: (yo conozco mis ovejas y ellas me conocen a mi, ¿que mas quieres? ¿te conoce Jesús? Homilia de un Padre.
