A) to pray at all times without fainting.
B) God the Father will do justice to His chosen ones.
C) When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?
Prayer, which is love, requires trust in God and fidelity. Prayer is goodness, mercy. God is the Trinity of love, it is a relationship of tenderness, which is revealed and manifested in ever new forms. The person must be regulated by the love of our Heavenly Father and his justice.
It is donor love, inventive, creative, immensely good, that we cannot imagine.
Through prayer, or continuous love for our Heavenly Father, who only expects to be loved as Christ asks of Peter: do you love me? Because love, which is prayer, dissolves hatred, anger, envy, bad character, vanity and laziness.
The continuous prayer of silence to every useless thought, inopportune and obsessive, produces peace, serenity and joy. Prayer, which is dialogue, is also knowing how to listen. Prayer is a yes to Christ, to wanting to fulfill his will. A yes to ‘being perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect’ (Mt 5:48).
In the Our Father, Christ leads us by the hand to the Father with confidence and with the power of the Holy Spirit.
In prayer we hear the voice of the Father who calls us son with immense love and tenderness and says to us: ‘You are my beloved, beloved, only and precious son’.
Do I believe it? Because ‘You are my beloved’ reveals the innermost truth of every human being. In the prayer of silence we can listen to these words addressed to you and me with the delicacy and strength that love can put into them.
Self-loathing is said to be the greatest enemy of the spiritual life, of the Father’s love for each one of us, because it is in contradiction with the sacred voice that calls us ‘the beloved’. It is a loving voice that speaks to us from the depths of our being.
This voice is always present in our heart, but we are more attentive to other voices, which from my heart tell me that I am not good enough to follow, that I am a person, that I am not capable of resisting any temptation –I can only resist the trial with grace – may I not insist on setting aside so much noise that is in our heart, with thoughts and worries that deviate from doing God’s will. Christ is always with you.
!["El mundo puede cambiar desde el corazón"
(Papa Francisco, Encíclica Dilexit Nos)
"El Corazón de Cristo es éxtasis, es salida, es donación, es encuentro. En él nos volvemos capaces de relacionarnos de un modo sano y feliz, y de construir en este mundo el Reino de amor y de justicia. Nuestro corazón unido al de Cristo es capaz de este milagro social.
Tomar en serio el corazón tiene consecuencias sociales. Como enseña el Concilio Vaticano II, «tenemos todos que cambiar nuestros corazones, con los ojos puestos en el orbe entero y en aquellos trabajos que todos juntos podemos llevar a cabo para que nuestra generación mejore». Porque «los desequilibrios que fatigan al mundo moderno están conectados con ese otro desequilibrio fundamental que hunde sus raíces en el corazón humano». [21] Ante los dramas del mundo, el Concilio invita a volver al corazón, explicando que el ser humano «por su interioridad es, en efecto, superior al universo entero; a esta profunda interioridad retorna cuando entra dentro de su corazón, donde Dios le aguarda, escrutador de los corazones (cf. 1 S 16,7; Jr 17,10), y donde él personalmente, bajo la mirada de Dios, decide su propio destino».
Esto no significa confiar excesivamente en nosotros mismos. Tengamos cuidado: advirtamos que nuestro corazón no es autosuficiente; es frágil y está herido. Tiene una dignidad ontológica, pero al mismo tiempo debe buscar una vida más digna. Dice también el Concilio Vaticano II que «el fermento evangélico ha despertado y despierta en el corazón del hombre esta irrefrenable exigencia de la dignidad», aunque para vivir conforme a esa dignidad no nos basta conocer el Evangelio ni cumplir mecánicamente lo que nos manda. Necesitamos el auxilio del amor divino. Acudamos al Corazón de Cristo, ese centro de su ser, que es un horno ardiente de amor divino y humano y es la mayor plenitud que puede alcanzar lo humano. Allí, en ese Corazón es donde nos reconocemos finalmente a nosotros mismos y aprendemos a amar."](https://www.idente.org/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
