Weekly Reflection

Proclaim from the Housetops

06-21-2026  |  We Celebrate Worship Resource, Vol. 51, No. 2

Last Sunday, we heard Jesus send the Twelve out to proclaim the kingdom of heaven. He realizes some people will be offended and may even threaten to harm them. So, as we hear today, he reassures his disciples, telling them that the Father is watching over every hair on their heads as much as even the tiniest sparrow. Note that Jesus does not claim that the Father will prevent sparrows from falling to the ground or their hair from thinning! No, but the Father’s care is so great that we need not fear suffering or death. Jeremiah realizes this and it enables him to continue prophesying despite threats and persecution, even from those who had been his friends. Paul proclaims that the Father’s gift of the Son—who overcame death—overflows into the whole world. This fortifies him as he preaches the gospel even when facing arrest, imprisonment, and eventually death. Indeed, as Jesus’ disciples now, we need not be afraid, even of death, because Jesus, who remains with us always, is the Resurrection and the Life.

When have you been afraid to speak up or act upon your faith? What can help you overcome that fear?


Proclama desde las Azoteas

El domingo pasado escuchamos a Jesús enviar a los Doce a proclamar el reino de los cielos. Él es consciente de que algunas personas se sentirán ofendidas e incluso podrían amenazar con hacerles daño. Por eso, como escuchamos hoy, Él tranquiliza a sus discípulos diciéndoles que el Padre cuida de cada cabello de sus cabezas tanto como del más pequeño de los gorriones. ¡Nótese que Jesús no afirma que el Padre impedirá que los gorriones caigan a tierra o que el cabello se debilite! No; más bien, el cuidado del Padre es tan grande que no necesitamos temer al sufrimiento ni a la muerte. Jeremías comprende esto, y ello le permite seguir profetizando a pesar de las amenazas y la persecución, incluso por parte de quienes habían sido sus amigos. Pablo proclama que el don del Padre—el Hijo, que venció a la muerte—se desborda sobre el mundo entero. Esto le fortalece al predicar el Evangelio, aun cuando se enfrenta a la detención, el encarcelamiento y, finalmente, la muerte. En efecto, como discípulos de Jesús hoy en día, no debemos tener miedo, ni siquiera a la muerte, porque Jesús—que permanece siempre con nosotros—es la Resurrección y la Vida.

¿Cuándo has sentido miedo de expresar tu fe o de actuar conforme a ella? ¿Qué puede ayudarte a superar ese miedo?
