The communion that Jesus lives with the Father is intimate in his divinity and is not separated from his humanity, even in the darkest moments. We often imagine Jesus, here in Gethsemane, alone, suffering and abandoned: this is a mistake, He and the Father are in us and we in them! This is the awareness to be kept in the light of Easter, a gift that goes beyond the own merits and capacities. This is the intimate and definitive experience of every Christian: we are never alone! The Father never leaves us alone, this is impossible, of an absolute impossibility, intrinsic to God, to his intimate interpersonal reality, between the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. It is impossible for the Father to leave Jesus alone even for a single moment, just as it is impossible for each of us to be left alone, because we are bound to God in an indissoluble way.This is God's promise to us ... his "Yes".
In these days we contemplate the Risen One who Ascends to the Father, from this mountain, for an "invisible Gate" to our eyes: it is the glorious manifestation of the Father who is now fulfilled in perfect stature: "before the world was" (Jn 17 , 5). Jesus being the Word of the Father is as if He were HERE, once again, and he explained to us this Gospel passage of his Passion, to us, his disciples: "I have done the things that are pleasing to him" (see Jn 8, 15-16 ; 28-29). And we his disciples, in light of all this, we could say moved: "You said it ... it's true! You wished it, you wanted it, you really did it for us!"
Let’s pray this month so that his Love without measure can be known more and more.
