\u201cFather of tenderness, I welcomed the sinners and the abandoned. Without scruples, I shared their tables and their status as the marginalized of society. I showed them your new face of a loving Father who welcomes the lost and who does not exclude anyone. I showed them that the Kingdom is a blessing to the poor and a welcome to sinners; and, after my death, which is a con- sequence of the way I lived, I deposit myself in your hands as an offering of love and redemption for sinners. I drag poverty and sin with me into the nothing that I have become. With the offering of my life, I share the lot of the poor, and I am in solidarity with the situation of the outcast, like me, who are excluded from society.<\/p>\n

I want the pain and love of this afternoon to embrace like twilight and dawn, and let redemption be a tree with open frontiers which, with its shade cover the entire human race. I want to push humankind towards an unknown home, to free the tired feet from their heavy chains, and put into action a love that does not possess nor is possessed.<\/p>\n

The grain of wheat, dead and buried under the earth, is now a golden spike swaying in the breeze. From death, life is born; from humiliation, glory and exaltation. The Poor One from Nazareth is now the Lord Jesus.<\/p>\n

Jesus Christ is he \u201cwho has come,\u201d but also the one \u201cwho is to come.\u201d He is the lordly meteor shooting through spaces and eternities like an arrow of hope.<\/p>\n

Jesus Christ lives yesterday, today and tomorrow!<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the book The Poor One of Nazareth by Fr. Ignacio Larra\u00f1aga<\/strong><\/p>\n
