" We must give you a heart always ready for good intentions to God, and that even in the midst of difficulties and lack of certainty, "said a wise man (1)
" God is Love. " Extraordinary and wonderful revelation! This pure love, incomprehensible to our intelligence human, can not but love. No place in him the slightest trace of malice, hatred, revenge, etc.. Nothing found too often in human beings, and he wants to do to make us disappear like him. If one becomes similar to what one contemplates, it must apply to contemplate love, open it.
On this rock of divine love that we can build to God to always give good intentions.
Our human intelligence we will reply: Yes, but how to reconcile "God is Love" with all these painful events that beset us? With all this evil and inexplicable shame that we encounter in the world?
Jesus Christ, did not respond directly. At least not in words but in deeds. It took all this trouble. He took upon him, he died on a cross and the third day he rose from the dead giving us the assurance that we will join it, each in our turn to 'Heaven' where he is .
How, after that, could we do not lend to God of good intentions towards us? "In the midst of difficulties and lack of certainty," we can say with Saint Paul: "It is good to them that love God." Not that God wants evil, to give us good, but that this evil (he will not) be used as well.
And death, in? It is no exception. It is a remedy that delivers us from "this body of death".
"Death is to let yourself be enveloped by life ... You agree to leave everything you 'seem' to have everything that swims to the surface of your being, to lose you in your background, this fund, which now can not disappoint you or lie to you "(1)
