“Adam, where are you?” (Cf. Gen 3:9).
The Heart of God seeks man who, having fallen under the seduction of the powers of darkness, has turned his back on Him. As Jesus shows us in the parable of the prodigal son, God is always waiting—awaiting our return.
Man wanders through this world without knowing where he comes from or where he is going. He no longer knows God as He truly is. With each new derailment, the memory of that trusting relationship with God—the memory of his true home, Paradise—fades away.
