The Creator of all things... assigned a place for my tent. And he said: Make your dwelling in Jacob, and in Israel receive your inheritance (Sir 24: 8). In Jesus Christ the Law of God became a living testimony, written in the heart of a man in whom, through the action of the Holy Spirit the fullness of deity resides in bodily form (cf. Col 2: 9). Dear friends, this is the true reason for humanitys hope: history has meaning because it is inhabited by the Wisdom of God. And yet the divine plan is not automatically implemented because it is a plan of love, and love generates freedom and requires freedom. The Kingdom of God certainly comes, indeed it is already present in history and thanks to Christs coming has already conquered the negative power of the Evil One. However, all men and women are responsible for welcoming him into their own lives, day after day.
