I meet an old friend with whom a few years ago during a trip with my wife in Argentina, we did experience you will not forget so easily. On that occasion, the meeting with the deacons overseas and their families has been so crucial in understanding the common ministry that still, years later, he feels the need to talk about it.
But circumstances have led us in recent years to deal with another, as we set aside the basic experience and those friends: that experience is so vital for the diaconate community now seems to be a memory, beautiful, but still far away. A breast assails us with sadness, almost the feeling of having missed a great chance of having lost time, inspiration, relationships ... The reaction, however, this mutual friend is was very enlightening, when he reminds us that nothing is lost if given out of love for God, and only then, with these cuts, life is born and continues.
came to my mind the words of the gospel, "Who wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it" (Lk 9:24) and what they entail for our lives. So I figured that if I can not grasp this "losing" the hand of God leads me with his love, feel this sense of inner solitude prelude to a dark soul, as a way to take a dead-end. The trust, however, is the certainty that what is done, in the present, the will to God, with purity of heart, attack, rest in peace and light. The
then everything can communicate with those who are able to welcome you in his heart, discover the light that "lose" all the good of the Gospel is a valuable and essential contribution to building the kingdom of God
