Día 8, Más allá de las rutas familiares de separación hacia los nuevos caminos de Dios. “... regresaron a su tierra por otro camino” (Mateo 2:1-12)
​
Escritura
  • Jeremías 31:31-34: haré un nuevo pacto con la casa de Israel.
  • Mateo 11:25-30: porque estas cosas las escondiste.

Meditación
No sabemos qué pensaron los reyes magos, que eran expertos en astronomía y navegación, cuando se les advirtió que debían regresar por otro camino. Es posible que estuvieran muy confundidos, pero la misma luz que iluminó su viaje les mostró que había otro camino, otra posibilidad. Fueron llamados a cambiar de dirección.
La divina providencia de Dios siempre está ahí para mostrarnos que hay otro camino preparado para nosotros. Dios está ahí para renovar su alianza y levantarnos de la frustración que experimentamos cuando encontramos un obstáculo. Un nuevo comienzo siempre es posible cuando estamos dispuestos y abiertos a la obra del Espíritu.
En los viejos caminos conocidos, las comunidades cristianas han caminado separadas unas de otras. En los nuevos caminos a los que Dios nos llama, los cristianos caminan juntos y se convierten en compañeros de peregrinación.

Oración
Dios mío, cuando pensamos que todos los caminos están bloqueados, y caemos en la desesperación, siempre te encontramos allí. Nos encontramos con que estás cre- ando un nuevo camino ante nosotros, uno que no esperábamos. Te damos las gra- cias porque tus caminos creativos abren posibilidades imprevistas. Ayúdanos a en- contrarte siempre, que aún nos conduces por un camino más excelente. Te pedimos, por Jesucristo nuestro Señor, en la comu- nión del Espíritu Santo, que nos conduzcas siempre hacia ti. Amén.
Day 8, Beyond the familiar routes of separation to God’s new paths. “They left for their own country by another road.” (Matthew 2:12)
Scripture
  • Jeremiah 31:31-34, I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel.
  • Matthew 11:25-30, Because you have hidden these things...

Meditation
We do not know what the wise men thought – they who were experts in astronomy and navigation – when they were warned to re- turn by another road. They may well have been very confused, but the same light that illumined their journey showed them that there was another road, another possibility. They were called to change direction.
God’s divine providence is always there to show us that there is another way prepared for us. God is there to renew his covenant and lift us up from the frustration we experience when we meet an obstacle. A fresh start is always possible when we are will- ing and open to the work of the Spirit.
On the old familiar roads, Christian communities have walked apart from one an- other. On the new roads to which God calls us, Christians walk together and become pilgrim companions.

Prayer
​
Gracious God, when we think that all roads are blocked, and we fall into despair, we always find you there. We find you creating a new path before us, one that we did not expect. We thank you because your creative paths open up unforeseen possibilities. Help us to always find you, who lead us yet by a more excellent way. We pray through Jesus Christ our Lord, in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, that you will always lead us back to you. Amen.
