El contraste que hace el leccionario de este texto con la
narrativa del Evangelio de hoy de Jesús ante Pilato es un                  Thanksgiving Prayer
maravilloso ejemplo de cómo la liturgia da a ciertos pasajes                                          Dear Lord,
nuevas “capas” de significado mediante la inserción en un                             As we gather together around this table
contexto particular.                                                                    laden with your plentiful gifts to us,
     La celebración de Cristo Rey nos permite escuchar                                  we thank You for always providing
estos pasajes con una nueva profundidad de significado a                                          what we really need
la luz de nuestra comprensión contemporánea de cómo,                                     and for sometimes granting wishes
en Jesús y su Resurrección y Ascensión, hemos visto el                                     for things we don't really need.
cumplimiento de la visión de Daniel de la liberación                                    Today, let us be especially thankful
final. La admisión velada de Jesús ante Pilato que,                                    for each other--for family and friends
efectivamente, él tenía un reino pero “no aquí” toma un                              who enrich our lives in wonderful ways,
nuevo significado con la visión cósmica de Daniel                                   even when they present us with challenges.
sirviendo de fondo, que nos permite vislumbrar al                                              Let us join together now
“Anciano” en su trono celestial.                                                            in peaceful, loving fellowship

LA VERDADERA GRATITUD                                                                    and our love for each other. Amen.
    Recordemos que así, como lo mucho que se nos ha
dado, mucho se espera de nosotros y que el verdadero
agradecimiento viene del corazón y se expresa con la
boca, además se muestra con las obras. —Theodore Roosevelt
UN CORAZÓN AGRADECIDO
    Un corazón agradecido no es sólo la virtud más
grande, sino el padre de todas las otras virtudes. —Cicerón
