Weekly Reflection
I Will Come To You...You Will See Me
05-10-2026 | We Celebrate Worship Resource, Vol. 51, No. 1Think of someone you love dearly. Perhaps it’s your spouse or significant other. Maybe it’s a parent or a child. Since today is Mother’s Day, you may be thinking of your mother or someone who is like a mother to you. For your loved one, you’re willing to make sacrifices, right? Ideally, we come to want what they want so it doesn’t feel like so much of a sacrifice. What Jesus wants most is for God’s will to be done and for us to want God’s will to be done. When Jesus told his disciples, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15), he was not issuing a demand so much as he was reminding them what love inspires a person to do. Recall that he had already taught them that the greatest commandment is to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself. Keeping these commandments is what you already want to do if you love Jesus and see him revealed in your neighbor. “I will come to you...you will see me,” he tells his disciples (John 14:18- 19). Our challenge is to see him coming to us in the person in need, in the person we are wiling to sacrifice for, in the one we come to love.
Whom do you love dearly? When have you put their will before your own?
No Los Dejaré… Volveré a Ustedes
Piensa en alguien a quien ames profundamente. Quizás sea tu cónyuge o tu pareja. Tal vez sea un padre o un hijo. Dado que hoy es el Día de la Madre, es posible que estés pensando en tu madre o en alguien que sea como una madre para Ɵ. Por ese ser querido, estás dispuesto a hacer sacrificios, ¿verdad? Idealmente, llegamos a desear lo que ellos desean, de modo que ya no se sienta tanto como un sacrificio. Lo que Jesús más desea es que se cumpla la voluntad de Dios y que nosotros también deseemos que se cumpla la voluntad de Dios. Cuando Jesús dijo a sus discípulos: “Si me amas, guarda mis mandamientos” (Juan 14:15), no estaba tanto imponiendo una exigencia, sino recordándoles aquello que es el amor que inspira a una persona a hacerlo. Recuerda que ya les había enseñado que el mandamiento más grande es amar a Dios y amar al prójimo como a uno mismo. Cumplir estos mandamientos es precisamente lo que ya deseas hacer si amas a Jesús y lo ves revelado en tu prójimo. “No los dejaré huérfanos; volveré a ustedes” les dice a sus discípulos (Juan 14:18-19). Nuestro desaİo consiste en verlo venir hacia nosotros en la persona necesitada, en la persona por la cual estamos dispuestos a sacrificarnos, en aquel a quien llegamos a amar.
¿A quién amas entrañablemente? ¿Cuándo has antepuesto su voluntad a la tuya?
