KEEP THE RHYTHM OF OUR WAITING
Hope. Theological virtue. Having as attainable that which is desired.
And what do we desire?
It presupposes faith and waiting. We always hope, and a lot, always. But who
waits? God, men, women, children? God always expects from us, yes, I imagine, always expecting what only He knows, and desires from every person
created by Him. And we… We wait every day. He expects, as a Father, the
most from us. We wait for others, we wait for the next thing to be better. The
future of someone coming, the happiness we desire, the continually interrupted peace, the
special light to understand what is happening, what others are saying to me, what others need from me,
and I don’t understand. What God sends us every day as a message with His Word.
We hope, to come to know His will in every moment, which sometimes we don’t even want to think about… We hope and desire, too much, or perhaps, that waiting is part of every person in the world.
To wait, with Hope, and to maintain that rhythm that doesn’t make us despair.
We also despair… and God, looks and sees our despair, and in some way, we don’t understand why what we hope for, and is good for everyone, doesn’t arrive, isn’t realized, and then; we don’t understand God… He deviates from our plan for that virtue… We are destabilized in every way, we don’t understand.
The rhythm is broken. And we have to call upon Him to be able to understand and celebrate the Jubilee.
God, Hope, time, and rhythms in the eternal wait to live our Hope better. Mary: Maintain the rhythm of our waiting.
Wait for us, Lord, but how can I tell you to wait for us?
