Look to your God. how He desires Us......


Let us remember those words that the prophet Isaiah says, in a situation that reminds us of ours: "strengthen weak hands, consolidate weak knees, tell the fainthearted, take courage, fear not! Here is your God." your god, rich in pity, clement and merciful; His mercy never runs out. Look at your god. Yes, we need to look at God, to put God at the center of everything: God eats center of reality and God eats center of life. God is necessary for man, and he does not distance himself from us. Without Him, man perishes and has no future; will live in the sadness of exile, wandering without a future, in no man's land, prey and victim of anything. This is the drama, the great problem of our time. there is no other that can be compared in its radicality and depth. but let's not be discouraged and discouraged, without hope. let's be happy because our god is coming, bring retribution, bring the joy of his presence, his love and his mercy. Look at God contemplate the face of god. if we live under the eyes of God, and if God is the priority of our life, of our thought and of our testimony, the rest is only a corollary. 


 look at your god, where you can contemplate his face of kindness and compassion, in Jesus Christ, as we see in the reading of the letter to the Hebrews or in the proclaimed Gospel text: in Jesus, Supreme and eternal Priest, "position to represent men in the worship of God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins, he can understand the ignorant and misguided, "he learned by suffering to obey. He himself is wrapped in weaknesses, 'charge over whether our sufferings', "his wounds have healed us." Ten thousand compassion, says repeatedly, blind Bartimaeus, what do you want me to do for you? See, the blind man answered him, go, your faith has healed you, Jesus says to him, and at once I recover my sight, this is the face where we can contemplate the face of God: Jesus Christ, compassionate and faithful High Priest, light of the people , healing of the sick, and healing of our human sins and blindness.
