| Joy |
| |
|
Let us listen to St Paul's words to the Philippians: "the Lord is at hand" (Phil 4: 5)
The Lord is close to us throughout our life through the Word and through the Sacraments. Let us pray that by his closeness we may always be moved in the depths of our being so that joy may be born that joy which is born when Jesus really is at hand.

| Joy |

“I was glad when they said to me, ‘Let us go to the house of the Lord!’” (Ps 121:1). The Psalmist’s joy, brimming over in the very words of the Psalm, penetrates our hearts and resonates deeply within them. We truly rejoice to enter the house of the Lord, since, as the Fathers of the Church have taught us, this house is nothing other than a concrete symbol of Jerusalem on high, which comes down to us (cf. Rev 21:2) to offer us the most beautiful of dwelling-places.

Let us revive within us the commitment to open our minds and hearts to Christ, sincerely showing him our desire to live as his true friends. Thus, we will become collaborators of his plan of salvation and witnesses of that joy which he gives to us, so that we may spread it around us in abundance.
