00:00Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the time of King Herod.
00:11Some wise men from the east then arrived in Jerusalem and asked,
00:17Where is the King of the Jews who has just been born?
00:21For we saw his star rise and have come to worship him.
00:25When King Herod heard this, he was alarmed, and all Jerusalem with him.
00:33He then summoned the chief priests and the scribes of the people
00:37and asked them where the Messiah was to be born.
00:41They answered him, in Bethlehem of Judea, for so the prophet has written.
00:47And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are by no means the least among the illustrious cities of Judah,
00:54For from you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.
01:00Then Herod secretly summoned the wise men to find out the exact time.
01:05when the star had appeared to them and he sent them to Bethlehem, saying,
01:11Go and find out carefully what's going on with that child
01:15And when you find him, let me know so I can go and worship him too.
01:21After hearing the king, the wise men set out on their journey
01:26And suddenly the star they had seen rise began to guide them
01:31until it stopped above where the child was.
01:36Upon seeing the star again, they were filled with immense joy.
01:40They entered the house and saw the child with Mary, his mother,
01:44and bowing down they worshipped him.
01:48Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
01:55Warned in their dreams that Herod had not returned,
01:59They returned to their land by another route.
02:03This week, from the Word of God
02:10The text we are reading today,
02:18Because it's a unique text, we read it every year.
02:23And this has given us the opportunity to touch on different elements of this text,
02:30from the meaning of the gifts, to Herod's reaction,
02:35Contrasted with the reaction of the magicians, the star, in short.
02:42It is a lot of material condensed into this space that the evangelist Matthew presents to us.
02:49But notice this, brothers, sometimes the most obvious thing is the least apparent.
02:57And notice that we haven't touched on a topic that is precisely what gives rise to the story.
03:04The Magi come with a very specific purpose: to worship the Lord.
03:11It says that these people came and arrived in Jerusalem because they came to worship this king who has been born.
03:21And when they found him, it says that they bowed down before him to worship him.
03:27So the whole story has to do with the theme of worship.
03:32And today I would like to delve deeper into this topic, which, as I hope will become clear by the end of our reflection,
03:42It is vital to our relationship with God.
03:48Normally, and I have to be honest about this, I myself tell you,
03:53What is most obvious is not always what jumps out at us.
03:56So, coming from the topic of renewal, I bring up the topic of praise a lot, right?
04:05So, it would seem that it's the same, but it's not.
04:10One surrounds the other, but they are different.
04:14Because praise, which is what we generally pay the most attention to,
04:19Well, we have different hymns of praise within the mass, the gloria, the sanctimonious.
04:23Within our prayer assemblies, we praise the Lord, etc.
04:28But praise is something we can do about many things.
04:33We can praise a masterpiece, that is, how beautiful, how lovely, what a great painter, etc.
04:38There is praise.
04:39In other words, there is a recognition of greatness, of art, and so on.
04:44We can praise the father, the mother, the son, because he got good grades.
04:48I don't know.
04:49We can praise practically everything.
04:52In fact, then, we praise the Virgin Mary, don't we?
04:55Because she is the mother of God, as we said on the first day,
04:59Well, that alone is more than enough to be worthy of praise.
05:04But not worship.
05:07Worship belongs exclusively to God.
05:10Only God is to be worshipped.
05:13From the very first books of scripture, from Genesis, it clearly states that we are only to worship God.
05:24and that we should not prostrate ourselves, that is, prostration as a sign of worship.
05:32Prostration, a sign of worship.
05:38That is why we see in today's story of the Magi that when they find Christ, they prostrate themselves before him.
05:46It is a sign of recognition of divinity.
05:51Matthew, who writes for the Hebrews, for the Jews, at different times to emphasize the divine reality of Christ,
06:05at different times, although Jesus will certainly still reveal himself as God after the resurrection,
06:13All these elements are already giving the people who read Matthew's writing,
06:19the perfect key that Jesus is God, just like the Father.
06:26Therefore, he is the only one before whom we should bow down.
06:30He is the only one who is God.
06:33And prostration or kneeling, right?, which would be, then, to remain halfway there, right?
06:39Prostration is being completely flat on your stomach, right?
06:45with her head glued to the ground, as if to say, I am nothing, okay?
06:51This is a sign that I recognize the greatness of God.
06:56He is God and I am earth.
06:59He is the Lord and I am a wretch.
07:03He is my Lord and I am his servant.
07:06It is a sign that reveals what is truly in my heart, what I truly believe.
07:18However, what is happening in our church?
07:21What's happening in our lives today?
07:24The thing is, the world keeps sucking the spiritual life out of us.
07:29And then, we are no longer aware of this reality and many others.
07:38Every Sunday and every time we come to mass,
07:42when it is consecrated, once the bread and wine have been consecrated,
07:47We believe, at least that is the faith of the church,
07:51We are in the presence of Christ, we are in the presence of God.
07:59And that's why the sign, the sign is to get on our knees.
08:04Therefore, at the time the consecration begins,
08:07At that moment we kneel as a sign of recognition,
08:13like that of the angels, like that of the kings now,
08:17like the one about the shepherds, when we read the story of the shepherds, in short.
08:21We always kneel before God.
08:26It's a sign.
08:28It is a sign that should reveal something that is happening in my life, in my heart.
08:35It is a sign of recognition,
08:38of recognition that He is indeed who He is.
08:44I'm going to give you one more example from the world
08:48to better understand this situation.
08:53Imagine yourselves inside the military,
08:56When a superior encounters an inferior,
09:01the general, that is, all the way to the top,
09:05a soldier or anyone of lower rank is found,
09:09What does the lower-ranking person do?
09:11Greetings.
09:13It's a sign.
09:16It's a sign.
09:18But what happens if he makes the sign,
09:21But in his heart he says, doesn't this guy know anything?
09:23I am more than him.
09:25I do?
09:27It simply remains a sign,
09:30Because if you don't know that...
09:31That would be a fault at least, wouldn't it?
09:35He does not recognize him as someone who is truly his superior.
09:42And sometimes the same thing happens to us in our church.
09:46I was talking to you, for example, at Christmas,
09:50how the world,
09:52through, then, many centuries, right?
09:54This is not something that happened yesterday.
09:55And that it happened to us Catholics from one day to the next
09:59And, in general, to Christians, right?
10:02He has been bringing them out, for example, at Christmas,
10:05We were just talking about it, right?
10:06We were saying, well, what is that child?
10:08What is that little doll?
10:10It can stay as a little doll
10:12and not see what's behind it,
10:15what it represents.
10:18Yeah?
10:18In other words, we are celebrating at Christmas
10:20the birth of Christ,
10:22who right now, well, is a little doll,
10:26It is a representation.
10:29But behind this lies a tremendous reality,
10:34a reality that has impacted us,
10:37Because thanks to Jesus being born two thousand years ago
10:41and grew and died for us,
10:44Now we have eternal life.
10:47And that's why we celebrate it,
10:48We celebrate his birth,
10:50What He did,
10:51all his presence among us.
10:54However,
10:55the world is going to hell,
10:58it keeps sucking,
11:00It's sucking all this up
11:02and it just leaves empty space.
11:06Imagine
11:06that this little doll we have here,
11:09This baby Jesus that we have here,
11:11Well, it's hollow.
11:12In fact, it's hollow.
11:13There's nothing inside.
11:14It's not,
11:15no, this,
11:17It is not complete.
11:18In other words, it's not,
11:18It is not solid,
11:21TRUE?
11:22If it's not hollow,
11:23TRUE?
11:23Imagine that many years ago
11:26was full
11:28truly from God,
11:30No?
11:31But little by little
11:32it was taken out,
11:33it was taken out,
11:34all that truth gradually came out
11:35and then,
11:36What are we left with?
11:38A hollow little doll.
11:41On this day,
11:42He preached on Friday
11:44because he lent himself the readings
11:46And I was telling them,
11:47Why that morning?
11:48suddenly, like God
11:50It gives you insights,
11:51TRUE?
11:51Certain lights
11:52at certain times
11:53and in the morning
11:55There was something,
11:56some preaching
11:57while I'm taking a bath
11:58and I'm getting ready
11:59or I put on music,
12:01goes?
12:01And well,
12:02I put on music on Friday
12:03and I had a list
12:06of these from Spotify
12:07Christmas
12:08and at that moment
12:09I started
12:10to raise awareness
12:12about what
12:14all the music,
12:16all the music
12:17that I was listening
12:18it didn't say
12:19one word
12:21of Christ.
12:24I love them
12:25those songs,
12:27but I remembered
12:28that many years ago
12:29when I had been ordained,
12:32when he was more Catholic,
12:33He played Christmas carols,
12:38I even had a collection
12:40of international Christmas carols
12:42sung in Germany
12:43and in many things,
12:45However,
12:46I am a victim too
12:47of this pollution
12:48of the world
12:48And well, I love them
12:51the music
12:53and the orchestra
12:54And because I like it a lot
12:55the music,
12:56They're really cool,
12:59Yeah,
13:00They are empty,
13:02They don't speak
13:02what I'm celebrating,
13:06bells,
13:08sleds,
13:09reindeer,
13:10Santa Claus,
13:11snow,
13:13I mean snow,
13:14in the southern hemisphere,
13:15it's hot,
13:16It's summer,
13:17which snow,
13:18What does snow have to do with it?
13:20the reindeer,
13:22this,
13:22the warmth of home,
13:24etc,
13:25etc,
13:25with Christmas,
13:27Tell me what that has to do with it
13:28And I started,
13:30I stayed listening for a little while
13:32and another song would start playing.
13:33and then another song would start playing.
13:34and said
13:35What am I hearing?
13:36And tell me if that isn't true
13:40because then we walk
13:41Rodolfo was a reindeer
13:43that is,
13:44it isn't true,
13:45The song is nice,
13:47It's really sticky,
13:48We like it,
13:50Furthermore, the story
13:50She's really pretty,
13:51TRUE,
13:52Poor Rodolfo
13:53now that I had a nose
13:54and then nobody wanted him
13:55and she's nice
13:57walks
13:57with the jingle bells,
13:59Jingle Bells
13:59And you start to think
14:00and you say
14:01jingles all the way
14:02what do they have to do with each other
14:06the bells
14:07and all this stuff
14:09hearing bells
14:10the whole truck
14:10what does that have to do with it
14:13With this,
14:15TRUE,
14:18And that's about it.
14:18that one about Santa Claus,
14:21TRUE,
14:21that if you behave
14:22and that he's watching you
14:23all the time
14:23and all that stuff,
14:24say,
14:25hey,
14:26But they're super sticky,
14:28beautiful,
14:32it isn't true,
14:32We all heard them
14:34But they don't say
14:36nothing about Jesus
14:37of the party
14:38that I am celebrating
14:39and it keeps getting in
14:40And what is he doing?
14:41is absorbing
14:45our spiritual life,
14:46is absorbing
14:48the mystery
14:49and it is
14:50making holes,
14:52in such a way
14:53that our party
14:55It ends up being hollow,
14:57What are we celebrating?
14:58to the jingle bells
15:03to Rudolph the reindeer
15:06I don't know
15:07What are we celebrating?
15:09instead of going
15:13driving,
15:14instead of pushing
15:16the spiritual theme
15:17and make us
15:18more aware
15:19of the mystery
15:20and make us
15:21more aware
15:21of Christ
15:22and make us
15:22more aware
15:23from this,
15:24No,
15:24on the contrary,
15:26it is taken out,
15:26it is taken out,
15:27it is taken out
15:27and then
15:29when we see
15:30to the little boy
15:31Oh, how lovely!
15:32Look how cute!
15:33and what we want
15:34Seeing is a child
15:34pretty,
15:36the better
15:40the material
15:41more father,
15:44the material,
15:45the physical,
15:46I retract it
15:47to adoration,
15:47what's happening
15:50at the moment
15:51in which he arrives
15:52the consecration?
15:55Is it truly
15:56one moment
15:57of worship
15:58of us
15:58or is it a sign
16:00liturgical?
16:06Psalm 95:6
16:09come
16:11Let us prostrate ourselves
16:13overland
16:13Let us bless
16:15to the Lord
16:16and let us adore him
16:17with all my heart
16:18says the psalmist
16:19It was the invitation
16:21in a song
16:22processional
16:23before the arrival
16:25to the temple
16:26because in the temple
16:27They recognized
16:28the presence
16:28like us
16:29we recognize her
16:30at the altar
16:31They recognized her
16:32in the temple
16:33God
16:34I lived in the temple
16:36then when they arrived
16:37the psalm
16:38processional
16:39invited
16:40to the people
16:41to get started
16:42on their knees
16:44to prostrate oneself
16:45completely
16:46in the presence
16:48of God
16:48that is to say
16:48as soon as they arrived
16:50to the presence
16:51then
16:52belly to the ground
16:54because?
16:55It was recognition
16:56that you were
16:58before God
16:59It was not a sign
17:02so
17:04It has to do with
17:05with faith
17:06with believing
17:10truly
17:11that we are
17:12in front of
17:13of God
17:15God
17:16eternal
17:17the one who created
17:18the world
17:19the one who can
17:21all
17:21the second
17:22person
17:23of the Trinity
17:24to which it refers
17:26the letter
17:26to the Hebrews
17:27when it says
17:27It's the same
17:28from yesterday
17:29today
17:29and always
17:30let's see
17:32We believe that
17:33then
17:34you think
17:36truly
17:37that at the moment
17:38of the consecration
17:40you are in front
17:42Look at what
17:43I'm going to tell you
17:43you are in front
17:46of God
17:46eternal
17:47you think
17:50that?
17:56That's where
17:57faith enters
17:58believe
18:03truly
18:04in the sky
18:09there is no faith
18:10because it is already the vision
18:12in Revelation
18:16we're going to
18:19those who bring
18:20your Bible
18:21Let's go to Revelation 4
18:23in verse 10

18:26your Bible
18:27Revelation 4
18:30verse 10
18:31I'm going to read
18:34from verse 9
18:35because it's all
18:36the pericope
18:37It begins in verse 9
18:38says
18:41and each time
18:42that living beings
18:43they gave glory
18:44honor and action

18:53they prostrated themselves
18:55before whom he is
18:56seated on the throne
18:57They worship the one who lives
18:59forever
19:00and throw
19:01their crowns
19:02at the feet
19:03of the throne
19:03saying
19:04You are worthy
19:05Lord and God
19:06our
19:06to receive
19:07the glory
19:08honor
19:10and the power
19:11look
19:12you created
19:14all things
19:15and by your will
19:16there existed
19:18and were created
19:20I mean, look at this
19:21It is recognition
19:23total
19:23of greatness
19:26of that
19:27that created
19:28all
19:28And that's why
19:29they are removed
19:30their crowns
19:31even
19:31They throw them
19:33at the feet
19:33to say
19:34The power is yours
19:35The honor is yours.
19:37Yours is the glory
19:39but the sign
19:40which
19:41prostrate
19:43It is recognition
19:45clear
19:46They're watching it
19:47we would say
19:50not live
19:51and in full color
19:52No
19:52us
19:53we don't have
19:55a representation
19:56at the altar
19:57holy shit
20:01It is not a
20:02representation
20:03of Christ
20:03how is
20:04this little boy
20:05that there
20:06this little monkey
20:06that here
20:07at the altar
20:09we are
20:10exactly
20:11equal
20:12that these 24
20:14seniors
20:14then
20:17explodes
20:18in the heart
20:20a hymn
20:22of praise
20:23of glorification
20:24in the presence
20:26of Christ
20:27And that's why
20:28they throw
20:29to the ground
20:30because they
20:31recognize
20:32then
20:33seeing the greatness
20:35that experience
20:36in his heart
20:37they experience
20:39their misery
20:40and then
20:41even though it is already
20:42are
20:43are representing
20:44there the apostles
20:45and the patriarchs
20:46the 24 elderly people
20:48and they
20:49who are crowned
20:50Because if we say
20:51they are therefore
20:52the kings of Israel
20:54And then the kings
20:55of our church
20:56TRUE
20:56well
20:57take
20:58take
20:59what I have
21:00all that I am
21:01Here's my crown for you.
21:02and I am nothing
21:03You are the king
21:04You are the powerful one
21:06You are the Most High
21:07You are the only one
21:08worthy of glory
21:09of praise
21:09and to be able
21:10you
21:10here they sound
21:16the little bells
21:17we knelt
21:19And what happens?
21:20in your heart
21:21That's why many times
21:28siblings
21:28in our prayers
21:30to the Lord
21:31They are not performed
21:33because remember
21:34that Jesus said
21:35so that it can be done
21:37You need to have faith
21:38And I'm going to tell you
21:41a story
21:42that I've already told you about
21:43other
21:43But it's relevant
21:44again
21:44on purpose
21:46from Father David
21:46that everyone already knows
21:47because he lives here
21:48with us
21:48I wasn't yet
21:50seminarian or anything
21:51but it was part
21:52of your community
21:52because it was in the renovation
21:53and often
21:54I was going to mass
21:55there to his parish
21:56and on that occasion
21:58There were some prayers
21:59the supplications
22:00These are special prayers
22:02made by the church
22:03to order
22:04Let it rain
22:05There was a great drought.
22:07I don't know
22:07I'm talking to him
22:08from 40 years ago
22:09maybe
22:09I don't know much time.
22:10and then
22:13Father David
22:14after mass
22:15said
22:16Well, the archbishop
22:17he asked us
22:18that we prayed
22:18the supplications
22:19But I'm not going to pray them.
22:20because it's pointless
22:22TRUE?
22:24all
22:24So
22:25as well as
22:26We didn't ask
22:27TRUE?
22:27But we stayed.
22:28seven
22:28and then he says
22:29You must be
22:30asking
22:31Why is it pointless?
22:32says
22:32the supplications
22:33It is for the people
22:35ask God
22:36Let it rain
22:37but you
22:39They don't believe
22:40It's going to rain
22:41teach me
22:42their umbrellas
22:44nobody wears
22:46the umbrella
22:46TRUE?
22:47come
22:47You don't believe
22:49It's going to rain
22:50You don't believe
22:52that this prayer
22:53is going to do
22:54that God
22:55send us
22:55the rain
22:56Why do we pray?
22:58if they have no faith
22:59And I'm going to propose to you
23:03a case
23:05what does that have to do with it
23:06with our parish
23:07There are two
23:09that I know
23:10very good
23:10because
23:11I have followed
23:12a bit
23:13life
23:14of these people
23:14generally
23:18I come
23:18Fridays
23:19at 3 in the morning
23:21to pray
23:21and always
23:24that's it
23:25a person
23:26from here
23:26of the community
23:27a woman
23:28prostrate
23:29always
23:30he gets ahead of me
23:31when I arrive
23:31She is already
23:32prostrate
23:33and is bedridden
23:35all the time
23:38until it leaves
23:39the whole hour
23:41is bedridden
23:43she asks
23:48through conversion
23:51of her husband
23:51and I know
23:52another case too
23:53equal
23:54a little different
23:56but still
23:57because her husband
23:59He is not Catholic
24:01and it's cold
24:04I mean
24:04That's not it either.
24:05very close
24:06to his faith
24:06But it's been a long time now.
24:08It also comes
24:09here at mass
24:10when I enter
24:14this Friday
24:15past
24:15I dropped them
24:18socks
24:20because
24:26on a bench
24:28in one of the chairs
24:29The husband was there
24:31and they weren't like that
24:36I was praying
24:39with his Bible
24:40We finished
24:46our time
24:47and we agree
24:49at the exit
24:49and I tell him
24:51What's up?
24:53TRUE?
24:54says
24:54Here we go
24:56We are still far from it
24:57But we're getting there.
24:59I am convinced
25:06siblings
25:06that there is no
25:07nothing
25:08let it be
25:09for our own good
25:10TRUE?
25:11I mean
25:11Lord, take me out
25:12the lottery
25:13brother
25:15with 50 pesos
25:16You make me dizzy
25:17I'll give you 50 million
25:18I'm losing you
25:18You're going to hell
25:19I mean
25:20You're not going to win
25:21what the lottery
25:22never
25:22forget it
25:25most selfish person
25:28that you don't know
25:28so
25:29Why would I give you 50 million?
25:30You're going to hell
25:31But if it suits you
25:33if it's a good thing
25:34if you have faith
25:37You will achieve it
25:39This woman
25:43truly
25:46believes he is
25:47before God
25:48is bedridden
25:51begging him
25:52Sir
25:53convert my husband
25:55attract it
25:56towards your house
25:57towards you
25:58and it's not that it's
25:59a bad person
26:00the husband
26:00He's not Catholic
26:02and she wants
26:03that he be Catholic
26:04prostrate
26:08months
26:10if not years
26:12that's why
26:14when I saw him
26:15on Friday
26:16said
26:17Oh Carlitos
26:19TRUE?
26:26And that's where
26:27I started building
26:28this
26:28this
26:29this homily
26:30because I tell them
26:32the most obvious
26:33It happens to us sometimes
26:34I mean
26:36this pollution
26:37that you suffer
26:38Don't think that I
26:39I am exempt from it
26:40from that moment on
26:43Now me too
26:43I am prostrating myself
26:45TRUE?
26:46And if I believe
26:46but I arrive
26:47feel
26:48I pray my rosary
26:49I read the Bible
26:51but I no longer prostrated myself
26:54And I remember that
26:56when I was more Catholic
26:58I did it
26:58I always prostrated myself
27:00always
27:02but the world
27:05we're going
27:05it's sucking us in
27:10faith
27:11And then, well, that's it.
27:13you don't adore
27:14already
27:14Yes, I believe so.
27:15Do you really believe that?
27:21and I say
27:21Oh my god, sir
27:22just like her
27:25No
27:26just as she didn't
27:29because otherwise
27:32who knows
27:33so many things
27:33I would have succeeded
27:34of Mr.
27:35I say
27:36Chihuahua
27:37because if I ask you
27:38And I ask you
27:38And I ask you
27:39And you don't give me
27:39because you have no faith
27:42don't you think?
27:45truly
27:46what are you
27:46in front of
27:47of God
27:47and you don't throw
27:48your crowns
27:49and you do not prostrate yourself
27:50in front of
27:51his
27:52It is a sign
27:53prostration
27:56It is a sign
27:57of something
27:57that has to
27:58happen
27:59in our life
28:00that's why
28:03Jesus says
28:04in
28:05you will remember
28:06the passage
28:07from Juan
28:07Chapter 4
28:09he tells us
28:10the meeting
28:11of Jesus
28:11with the Samaritan woman
28:12remember
28:13that was found
28:15there in the well
28:15and all this topic
28:16and well
28:17What's going on there?
28:21Jesus
28:21he reveals
28:22that he is
28:23the Messiah
28:24and then
28:27says
28:28Well
28:28you
28:29the Jews
28:29They say that we have to
28:30worship
28:30in Jerusalem
28:32and we
28:33we say
28:34that here
28:34in the mountains
28:34Jaricín
28:35And what does it say?
28:37Jesus?
28:38I assure you
28:39that from
28:40from now on
28:41the real ones
28:43worshippers
28:43They will no longer worship
28:45nor in Jerusalem
28:47nor in Samaria
28:49nor in Jaricín
28:50the real ones
28:52worshippers
28:53they will worship
28:54in spirit
28:55and truly
28:57that is to say
28:58from
28:59of Jesus
29:00although
29:02already the
29:03the
29:04the
29:04the
29:04the
29:05the Bible
29:06He's already talking to us
29:07of prostrating ourselves
29:08and all that
29:09It happened to them too
29:10the same
29:10What is happening to us?
29:11us
29:12Catholics
29:13the world
29:14which is no different
29:16from now
29:16than the other one
29:17It was also
29:18sucking him
29:19faith
29:19to the people
29:20from Israel
29:20he prostrated himself
29:21But I didn't believe it.
29:22nothing
29:23just like us
29:25Jesus says
29:29It's not about
29:30of an act
29:32liturgical
29:34It's not about
29:36of an action
29:37empty
29:38hollow
29:39It has to do with
29:41with all my heart
29:42in spirit
29:43that is to say
29:45has to proceed
29:46of an action
29:47internal
29:48in your life
29:49but at the same time
29:51time
29:51really
29:52that is to say
29:53where there is a
29:54communication
29:55of the truth
29:56that assures you
29:59what are you
30:00in front of
30:00of God
30:01in spirit
30:03inflamed
30:04of love
30:05It has to do with
30:06now with love
30:07and it has to do with
30:09also
30:09with the truth
30:11which I recognize
30:12of what is
30:14of what is
30:14in front of me
30:15where it occurs
30:17that
30:17in Jerusalem
30:18it's the same
30:19nor in Jerusalem
30:21Not even close
30:21not there
30:22in any temple
30:23anywhere
30:24it is enough that
30:25truly
30:26be present
30:28of Christ
30:29and I the
30:30recognize
30:31present
30:31so that at that moment
30:34that process occurs
30:35of worship
30:36worship process
30:39like you
30:40you have to
30:41humiliate
30:42because you are not
30:43nothing
30:43throw away your crowns
30:44we see how
30:46the kings
30:47they offer you
30:48what they have
30:48like Abraham
30:49I mean
30:52Abraham
30:52acknowledges
30:53greatness
30:54of God
30:55obeying him
30:56and handing him over
30:58what he loves most
30:59a way
31:01of worship
31:02it is precisely
31:04that
31:04surrendering ourselves
31:06completely
31:07which
31:08all that we are
31:09and all that we have
31:10in obedience
31:12total to him
31:13is the oldest
31:14act of worship
31:15if you look closely
31:17again
31:18We're talking
31:19of things
31:21What do we do?
31:22not what we think
31:23not of rituals
31:25give it to him
31:26to his son
31:27It wasn't a ritual
31:27I was going to kill him
31:28when they come
31:31the kings
31:32It wasn't a ritual
31:33they handed it to him
31:34well symbolically
31:36TRUE
31:37They are handing it to him
31:38what they brought
31:39charging
31:40from there
31:41I mean
31:41their chests
31:43They always bring them up here
31:44a small box
31:44because really
31:45theologically
31:48They are signs
31:49TRUE
31:50gold
31:50who recognizes it
31:51as king
31:52incense
31:52who recognizes it
31:53like God
31:53and myrrh
31:54who recognizes it
31:55as a man
31:56TRUE
31:56But in reality
31:58these men
31:59who arrived
32:00well, probably
32:01they would come loaded
32:02of treasures
32:04TRUE
32:04They already brought him
32:06well, as was the custom
32:07No
32:07well a
32:09a chest
32:10full of gold
32:12TRUE
32:12another one then
32:13will have brought him
32:14other things
32:15from his land
32:16in the end
32:17each one brought
32:17the best thing I had
32:19I mean
32:20adoration
32:21It has to do with
32:22then also
32:22with a delivery
32:23generous
32:24Look at what it tells us
32:25Romans
32:2612
32:271
32:277
32:27Romans says
32:3112
32:311
32:322
32:32I'm saying goodbye, brothers.
32:35through mercy
32:36of God
32:37that are offered
32:39as a sacrifice
32:40alive and holy
32:41pleasing to God
32:43This must be
32:44This must be
32:44his authentic
32:46worship
32:47a delivery
32:50total
32:50of my life
32:51Yeah
32:52and continues
32:54do not adapt
32:55to the criteria
32:56of this world
32:57on the contrary
32:58transform
32:59renovate your interior
33:00so that they can
33:01discover
33:02what is the will
33:03of God
33:04which is good
33:04what pleases him
33:05and perfection
33:07when we
33:08we surrendered
33:09completely
33:10when we throw
33:11our crowns
33:12before the Lord
33:13when we deliver
33:15our treasures
33:16that is to say
33:17We are opening
33:18the chest
33:18of our life
33:19so that God
33:20I filled it
33:21Mister
33:23here I am
33:24Look at me
33:25a miserable wretch
33:26but contrary
33:30that
33:30our nature
33:31that pushes us
33:32I am
33:36No
33:40We are nothing
33:41And this is an exercise.
33:46What do we do?
33:46at every mass
33:47but unfortunately
33:51and so we would have
33:52I have to say it
33:52since we don't have
33:54this awareness
33:55well, the mass
33:56It happens to us
33:57I stop
33:58feel
33:58I stop
33:58feel
33:59already
34:00They are signs
34:02These are positions
34:02liturgical
34:03It's a way
34:04cult
34:06look
34:08I wrote it down here
34:09because I said
34:09Otherwise I'll forget
34:11this that I found
34:12with Jesus
34:14adoration
34:15became
34:16in a matter
34:16from the heart
34:17not of the actions
34:19exteriors
34:20and of emotions
34:22TRUE
34:24the charismatic ones
34:25here
34:25when
34:25They no longer feel
34:27They ran out
34:28God
34:28It's that God
34:29He's already gone
34:30I don't anymore
34:30No
34:31It's not an emotion.
34:33Yeah
34:35It's a matter
34:36from the heart
34:37not of shares
34:38exteriors
34:39nor of emotions
34:40and it is
34:42directed
34:42adoration
34:43is directed
34:44for the truth
34:45that is to say
34:46this
34:46duly
34:47well-founded
34:49because we believe
34:50that Jesus
34:51is present
34:52there
34:52It's very simple.
34:53because he said so
34:54the one who eats
34:56my flesh
34:57and drink my blood
34:58well
34:59It's eating
35:01what I am
35:02And since we don't eat it
35:03in the Eucharist
35:04take
35:04This is my flesh
35:05And this is my blood.
35:06That's what we believe.
35:07or should we believe
35:09Therein lies the truth
35:11That's the truth
35:13And that's why
35:15when
35:16is consecrated
35:17well we should
35:18of
35:19Sir

35:37and all this kind
35:38of rolls
35:39it isn't true
35:40the holidays
35:43in the end
35:43the world
35:45to take God out
35:49of our life
35:49And what happens?
35:50when you take out

36:00seeking peace
36:01happiness

39:17the race
39:17of the most holy
39:18see
39:19like most
39:19He is sitting
39:21not stoic
39:22It's a chapel
39:23of worship

39:27It's a chapel
39:28prayer
39:29not of worship
39:30the worshippers

39:33or bedridden
39:34because it is the sign
39:38I am in front
39:39of God
39:39the thing is
39:40of God
39:42of the second
39:44person
39:45of the Trinity
39:45of God
39:46you are in front

40:03It is an action
40:04gradual

40:13being aware
40:15I'm
40:15in front of
40:16of God
40:16I follow him
40:18looking at a loaf
40:19but
40:19But the truth is

40:38so many things
40:39wonderful
40:40They're going to start
40:40to occur
40:41in their hearts
40:42and in their lives
40:43because the Lord
40:44He's anxious.
40:45to do it
40:45but our
40:48lack of faith
40:49in his presence
40:50real
40:51It prevents it
40:52Well, let's get to work
40:54on this
40:55and on the other hand

41:16we're getting there
41:18I tell them
41:18I had
41:19years
41:21I have to say it like this
41:22because I love them
41:24American songs
41:25but I said
41:27sparks
