The Feast of the Nativity of the Son of God draws nearer every day. Our hearts are to be filled with great joy and warmth. The promises announced and prepared from all eternity by our Father are coming to fulfillment. The plan of His love is becoming a reality…
The anguished search of the Heavenly Father for us continues ever since we lost the union with God which we enjoyed in Paradise. Every time we go astray, every time we turn away from “the fountain of living waters, to become cracked cisterns” (Jer 2:13), we hear in the background the call of the Father:
“And you who are in the true light, tell them how sweet it is to live in the truth!” (Father’s message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).
“The Law of the Lord is perfect, refreshment to the soul” (Ps 19:7).
When I awake in the morning, You, Father, are already there, and all night You have watched over me. Then You expect me to turn to You and my first word to be consecrated to You, gladly and joyously! But sometimes I forget and let myself be carried away by moods. What a pity!
“Could I give a more precious gift to humankind than my only-begotten Son?” (Interior Word).
What great mercy you had towards us in sending us your Son Jesus! With incomparable love you set your gaze upon us, who so often run away from you or even turn against you, who offend you with our sins or simply forget you. You, on the other hand, are always present and look at us with love. You care attentively for us, because you do not want us to lead a meaningless life, let alone to be lost forever.
