The narrow gate is Jesus gosta? La puerta angosta es Jesucristo. Es Christ. It is the gate from this life into la puerta entre esta vida y el cielo. Es la heaven. It is the gate of our own cross. It is puerta de nuestra propia cruz. Es la puerta the gate through the cross to the resurreca través de la cruz a la resurrección. Y es on. And it is very narrow. Why? Because muy angosta. ¿Por qué? Porque la única the only way through it is through our manera a travesarla es a través de nuestrials, sufferings and sacrifices. tras pruebas, sufrimientos y sacrificios. Que nos deWhat might keep us from passing through the ene en pasar por la puerta angosta? El egoísta amor narrow gate? Selfish self-love. You might say, “that propio. Quizás dicen, “eso nunca me podría pasar a could never happen to me.” Oh yes it can. Look at mí.” Oh, sí que puede. Mira lo que les pasó a los Juwhat happened to the early Jews. Jesus told them a díos en los empos pasados. Jesús les contó una paráparable about a great feast and if they didn’t bola acerca de un gran banquete y si no se cambiachange, they would never be a part of it. ban, nunca iban a ser parte de ella. ¿Cómo se equivoWhat did they do wrong? They believed they were caron? Creían que eran privilegiados—el pueblo escoprivileged—God’s chosen people. They became gido de Dios. Se hicieron orgullosos y egoístas. Eran proud and selfish. They were intolerant and they excluded others. That exclusion now excluded them intolerantes y excluían a otros. Ahora esa exclusión los excluía a ellos de la puerta angosta. ¿Qué nos ensefrom the narrow gate. What does this teach us? We are weak. Our human ña? Somos débiles. Nuestra naturaleza humana se inclina hacia el orgullo. Es fácil creer que somos especianature is inclined toward pride. It is easy for us to les y mejor que los demás. Podemos empezar a creer believe that we are special and be er than others. que nos merecemos el cielo más que alguien que no We can start to believe we deserve heaven more than someone who doesn’t pray as much as we do, reza tanto como nosotros, que no viene a la iglesia who doesn’t come to church as much as we do, and tanto como nosotros, y que no ha sido católico por el mismo empo que nosotros. Entonces, ¿qué podewho hasn’t been a Catholic as long as we have. We mos hacer para evitarlo? Jesús nos dijo: "Pues los que fall in love with ourselves. ahora son los úl mos, serán los primeros; y los que So what can we do to avoid it? Jesus told us: “For behold, some are last who will be first, and some are ahora son los primeros, serán los úl mos.” ¿Qué podemos hacer para ser el úl mo que será el primero? first who will be last.” What can we do to become Mira la historia de Jesucristo. Se hizo el ul mo. A the last who will be first? pesar de que era Dios, se despojó a sí mismo y tomó la Look at the story of Jesus Christ. He made himself condición de un esclavo para sufrir y morir por nueslast. Though he was God he emp ed himself and took the form of a slave to suffer and die for our sins tros pecados (Fil. 2:5). Esa es la clave. Tenemos que aprender a vivir como Jesús: levantar nuestra cruz y (Phil. 2:5). That is the key. We have to learn to live like Jesus: to take up our cross and to live for others. vivir para los demás. Quiere decir que vamos a morir It means we will die a li le each day, slowly dying to un poco cada día, muriendo poco a poco a nuestros our selfish interests. But we will also rise a li le each intereses egoístas. Pero también vamos a resucitarnos un poco cada día, poco a poco llegando a vivir por los day, slowly rising to live for the interests of others.

Quizás dices: "Espera un minuto, esto es demasiado You might say, “wait a minute, this is way too diffidi cil." Pero no lo es. Jesús nos dijo que tenemos que cult.” But it isn’t. Jesus told us we have to “strive” for it. We have to struggle and push ourselves to im- "esforzarnos" por entrar por la puerta angosta. Tenemos que luchar y esforzarnos para imitar a Jesús y seitate Jesus and follow what he told us: Be compasguir lo que nos dijo: Sean compasivos como su Padre sionate as your Father is compassionate.

Love one another as I have unos a los otros como yo los he amado. Y si nos loved you. And if we push ourselves to “strive” for "esforzarnos," Dios y Jesús nos darán un poder espeit, God and Jesus will give us a special power in the cial en el Espíritu Santo que llamamos la gracia. ¿Por Holy Spirit we call grace. qué es tan importante? Porque en el salmo de hoy, Why is this important? Because in today’s psalm Dios nos dice que "Vayan por todo el mundo y prediGod is telling us to “Go out to all the world and tell quen el Evangelio.” Quiere decir que Dios nos envía the Good News.” It means we are being sent to para traer los demás a través de la puerta angosta a bring others through the narrow gate to God.

For if a man with gold rings on his fingers and in fine clothes comes into your assembly, and a poor person in shabby clothes also comes in, and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say, “Sit here, please,” while you say to the poor one, “Stand there,” or “Sit at my feet,” have you not made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil designs? Listen, my beloved brothers and sisters. Did not God choose those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that he promised to those who love him?
