Fourth Sunday of Easter

…because they recognize his voice. Recognizing the voice of Christ, our shepherd, in a world filled with almost never ending sounds may be difficult. So how do we train our ears to be sensitive to the voice of our shepherd? There is really only one way to recognize His voice and that is to become familiar with what He says and the way He says it. Since Christ is no longer walking with the disciples they are no longer hearing His human voice. They talk to Him but do not recognize his human form but recognize Him in the breaking of the bread. That is how they are learning the words and sounds that uses to lead them. They are hearing words of support and encouragement. He explains what we have heard of his promises and actions of the past. We hear the words that Jesus used to teach the apostles and disciples. We learn to hear with our heart for Jesus is sharing the love of His Father. The sheep listen because they have learned the shepherd really does care for them. They have learned that the shepherd will lead them and walk with them wherever they go. Without the shepherd, the sheep know they are lost. Without the shepherd, some humans think that we are free to do whatever we want.

Cuarto Domingo de Pascua

…porque ellos reconocen su voz. Reconociendo la voz de Cristo, nuestro pastor, en un mundo casi lleno de sonidos sin fin puede ser difícil. Entonces como entrenamos a nuestros oídos a ser sensibles a la voz de nuestro pastor? Hay tan solo una manera de reconocer Su voz y eso es el familiarizarnos con lo que El dice y la manera en que El las dice. Des-de que Cristo ya no camina con los discípulos ellos ya no escuchan Su voz humana. Ellos Le hablan pero no reconocen su forma humana pero Lo reconocen al partir el pan. Así es como se están aprendiendo las palabras y sonidos que se usan para guiarlos. Están escuchando palabras de apoyo y estimulo. El explica lo que hemos escuchado de sus promesas y acciones del pasado. Escuchamos las palabras de Jesús usadas para enseñar a los apóstoles y discípulos. Aprendemos a escuchar con nuestro Corazón ya que Jesús esta compartiendo el amor de Su Padre. Las ovejas escuchan porque han aprendido que el pastor en realidad se preocupa por ellos. Han aprendido que el pastor los guiara y camina con ellos a donde sea que vallan. Sin el pastor, las ovejas saben que están perdidas. Sin el pastor, algunos humanos piensan que somos libres de hacer lo que querremos.
