In what is beyond us, that is to say in what we do not understand One thing that builds our acceptance of Mystery: is it normal not to understand. We only have to join. This is not an abdication of laziness or intelligence. But intelligence grasps that she can not go further. It can only accede to or reject. It is the beautiful risk of faith!
what beautiful things we are saying as we have just received. "Even if your father or your mother abandons you, I will not forsake you," said a psalm. And that is experienced throughout the trials of this life. Saint Paul tells us that "the sufferings of this present time are out of proportion with what we are called to live forever. " There really is a radical change between this life and the one we are called to live forever.
God became incarnate in taking our wounded human nature to its roots. Why? For us his divine nature and thus we heal. Great Mystery of the Incarnation! "In becoming man, we deify What a leap it takes us! And Jesus, as to mark the level difference say, concerning Jean-Baptiste he was the greatest among the children of man, then he adds, but the smallest in the kingdom of Heaven is greater than he. Exceeding unheard!
That's what we is reserved by God the Father, so loving that we hardly believe in free love. We just receive it with gratitude. His joy is to receive from his own. In talking with a neighbor a little incredulous at this free, he told my wife: "After all we are not thieves." She responds with reason: "Even if we were thieves ... it would not change this infinite love of a father who wants only to make us among his followers forever" is how Jesus on the cross told good repentant thief: "Today thou shalt be with me in paradise!".
Do not refuse the gratuity. If there is a point in the Gospel Clearly, it is this one. (See the parable of the prodigal son, lost sheep, etc.). Do not plan on God our human ways of understanding the spiritual things of the Kingdom. This would still be a miserable trade inconsistent with the free divine. Receive this free, is what transforms us, makes us better. God expects it of us. About
shaken my health, I'm still in this state of confident expectation, not knowing the reason for this disturbance. It is part of what is beyond me. But I do not neglect that medical science makes available to me to heal.
