24062016 Gospel Lk 1:57-66, 80

When the time arrived for Elizabeth to have her child she gave birth to a son.

Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown his great mercy toward her, and they rejoiced with her.

When they came on the eighth day to circumcise the child, they were going to call him Zechariah after his father, but his mother said in reply, "No. He will be called John.”

But they answered her, "There is no one among your relatives who has this name.” So they made signs, asking his father what he wished him to be called.

He asked for a tablet and wrote, “John is his name,” and all were amazed. Immediately his mouth was opened, his tongue freed, and he spoke blessing God.

Then fear came upon all their neighbors, and all these matters were discussed throughout the hill country of Judea.

All who heard these things took them to heart, saying, "What, then, will this child be?” For surely the hand of the Lord was with him.

The child grew and became strong in spirit,  and he was in the desert until the day of his manifestation to Israel.

Repleksiyon:

(Note: Gusto nako ipa-ambit dijo an repleksiyon nako nan adton June 24, 2011 kay tan'aw nako, bagan marajaw 'sab seguro balikan an kahapon nako.)

Nan elementary pa ako, eksayted ako kon Hunyo na kay hapit na man iselebrar an San Juan – entero adlaw, adto sa danaw, ligo-ligo, doro an pagkaon, bibo karajaw an danaw.

Waya’y ako pagpakabana kon uno’y buot ipasabot nan pagselebrar nan ini na okasyon, basta an hidumduman ra nako na arang ka bibo an Habungan kay duro man an mokadto na mga taga-iban na lugar para mangaligo sa danaw.

Kuman na medyo may edad na ako sanan nag-entra-entra na sa mga akitbidades sa Simbahan, nahibayo na ako nan papel ni Juan sa ato tinuohan.

Espesyal baja na gasa si Juan nan Diyos sa kalibutan kay sija man an nagpahibayo sa mga tawo na moabot na an Ginoo amo na kinahanglan ipreparar nija sanan nato an dayan na agihan nan Ginoo, pagkatapos, ija pa gajud tag-bautismohan si Hesus sa Jordan.

Ugsa na kinahanglan pasalamatan gajud nato si Juan kay ija man sab tag-gasa sa Diyos an ija kinabuhi pinaagi sa ija pagpakamartir – tagpunggutan sija nan ija uyo nan mga tawo ni Herodes.
