The
Infant
In this life,
all of us, from the smallest to the greatest, must confront the constrains of this world:
cold, droughts, cataclysms, illnesses, wars, brutality, and dishonesty.
We must not
forget that we live as if we were on a volcano. In fact, our planet, drifting in the
universe, is a ball of fire. The cooling of its surface has formed a crust that floats on
fusion matter: that is "our world", the one we live in. Of course, in the face
of this reality, our situation is not the most reassuring. We are vulnerable and fragile,
like a baby who, without the help of its parents, would not stand a chance to survive.
But, that's the
fact, and we cannot do anything about it! Therefore, we better have a complete and total
confidence in God. He has created us, He loves us and He wants to guide us. But for that,
we must do our part, which is to come back to Him like a little child in the arms of its
mother.
Let us allow
ourselves to be guided and loved by the One who is at the origin of everything and who
shows us the way. Let
us have the certainty that what has been created by love cannot be abandoned.
