“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed,
but not in despair: persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down,
but not destroyed.” 2 Corinthians 4:8-9
 
As we continue learning and living in the pandemic situation of Covid-19, we discover that resilience is a virtue that we need to apply also in our relationship with God.

The definition of resilience is associated with the quick capacity to adapt and respond to the unexpected challenges or hardships. When observed more in detail, it is possible to discover that resilience is in fact a component of the faith which recognizes that we are never in control, and everything depends on God alone.

The Bible is full of examples of resilience where things don’t go as expected and the people rapidly need to adapt and change. Think about Joseph and Mary fleeing to Egypt by night to protect baby Jesus, or Peter leaving everything behind to follow Jesus, or Paul’s life at risk numerous times in front of the authorities, or Job from the Old Testament losing everything and passing from wellness to affliction. These examples are a reminder that each story of the Bible has a component of resilience where people trust and obey God.

The faith that allows these people in the Bible to keep going amid difficulties is needed in our day and time. For us Christians, the power to live and adjust to the circumstances of our time is found only in God. Each believer who arrives to this conclusion can experience God’s consolations even in things that are changing fast or where human life is full of questions without answers.

I invite you to continue being a faithful believer, helping, loving, caring for others and especially trusting and obeying God always.
 
Blessings,
Fr. Fabian

“Nos vemos atribulados en todo, pero no abatidos; perplejos,
pero no desesperados; perseguidos, pero no abandonados; derribados, pero no destruidos.” 2 Corintios 4:8-9
 
A medida que seguimos aprendiendo y viviendo la situación de pandemia del Covid-19, descubrimos que la resiliencia es una virtud que debemos aplicar también en nuestra relación con Dios.
 
La definición de resiliencia está asociada con la capacidad rápida para adaptarse y responder a los desafíos o dificultades inesperados, también con la flexibilidad y resistencia ante los cambios. Cuando se observa más en detalle, es posible descubrir que la resiliencia es, de hecho, un componente de la fe que reconoce que nunca tenemos el control y que todo depende solo de Dios.
 
La Biblia está llena de ejemplos de resiliencia donde las cosas no salen como se esperaba y la gente necesita adaptarse y cambiar rápidamente. Piensen en José y María huyendo de noche a Egipto para proteger al niño Jesús, o en Pedro dejándolo todo atrás para seguir a Jesús, o la vida de Pablo muchas veces en peligro frente a las autoridades, o en Job del Antiguo Testamento perdiéndolo todo y pasando del bienestar a la aflicción. Estos ejemplos son un recordatorio de que cada historia de la Biblia tiene un componente de resiliencia donde las personas confían y obedecen a Dios.
 
La fe que permite a estas personas seguir adelante en medio de las dificultades es necesaria en nuestros días. Para nosotros cristianos, el poder de vivir y adaptarse a las circunstancias de nuestro tiempo se encuentra sólo en Dios. Cada creyente que llega a esta conclusión es capaz de experimentar los consuelos de Dios incluso en las cosas que cambian rápidamente o donde la vida humana está llena de preguntas sin respuestas.
 
le invito a seguir siendo un(a) creyente fiel, ayudando, amando, cuidando a los demás y sobre todo confiando y obedeciendo siempre a Dios.
 
Bendiciones,
Padre Fabian
