La doman\u00adda da por\u00adsi dopo la mor\u00adte, quan\u00addo ci tro\u00adve\u00adremo davan\u00adti a Dio, non \u00e8: \u00abHo fat\u00adto abbastan\u00adza bene?\u00bb, ma: \u00ab\u00c8 suf\u00adfi\u00adci\u00aden\u00adte ci\u00f2 che Ges\u00f9 ha fat\u00adto sul\u00adla cro\u00adce?\u00bb. E: \u00abL\u2019ho accett\u00ada\u00adto per me per\u00adso\u00adnal\u00admen\u00adte?\u00bb. In Giob\u00adbe suo\u00adna cos\u00ec: \u00abFino\u00adra ti cono\u00adsce\u00advo solo per sen\u00adti\u00adto dire, ma ora ti ho vis\u00adto con i miei occhi\u00bb (Giob\u00adbe 42:5 NL<\/span>). Ho vis\u00adto Ges\u00f9 o ne ho solo sen\u00adti\u00adto parl\u00ada\u00adre? Non si trat\u00adta di veder\u00adlo fac\u00adcia a fac\u00adcia, ma di un rap\u00adpor\u00adto per\u00adso\u00adna\u00adle. Ecco per\u00adch\u00e9 il Nata\u00adle \u00e8 cos\u00ec importan\u00adte. Ange\u00adlus Sile\u00adsi\u00adus dis\u00adse una vol\u00adta: \u00abE se Ges\u00f9 nas\u00adces\u00adse mil\u00adle vol\u00adte a Bet\u00adlem\u00adme e non in voi, rimar\u00adres\u00adte comun\u00adque per\u00addu\u00adti\u00bb. Ges\u00f9 deve nas\u00adce\u00adre in noi. Il Nata\u00adle tras\u00adfor\u00adma un rap\u00adpor\u00adto fra\u00adgi\u00adle e distan\u00adte con Dio in un rap\u00adpor\u00adto emo\u00adtivo, appa\u00adgan\u00adte ed esis\u00adten\u00adzia\u00adle con Ges\u00f9. Ogni distan\u00adza vie\u00adne col\u00adma\u00adta. Ora Dio non \u00e8 pi\u00f9 solo il San\u00adto, ma anche il nos\u00adtro Pap\u00e0. Il Nata\u00adle ren\u00adde Dio toc\u00adca\u00adbi\u00adle e visi\u00adbi\u00adle. Si pu\u00f2 mor\u00adi\u00adre in pace come Simeone? Ges\u00f9 vuo\u00adle esse\u00adre anche la tua pace, il tuo esse\u00adre sufficiente!
\nSimeone sape\u00adva gi\u00e0 all\u00ado\u00adra che l\u2019ebreo Ges\u00f9 non sareb\u00adbe sta\u00adto luce solo per gli ebrei, ma per tut\u00adte le nazio\u00adni (Isa\u00adia 52:10). Tut\u00adte le nazio\u00adni vedran\u00adno e cono\u00adsceran\u00adno Dio attra\u00adver\u00adso Ges\u00f9, la luce del mondo.
\nGes\u00f9 il nos\u00adtro destino
\nMa Simeone li bene\u00addis\u00adse e dis\u00adse a Maria: \u00abQues\u00adto bam\u00adbi\u00adno sar\u00e0 rifi\u00aduta\u00adto da mol\u00adti in Israe\u00adle e sar\u00e0 la loro rovina\u00bb. Ma per mol\u00adte alt\u00adre per\u00adso\u00adne sar\u00e0 la gioia pi\u00f9 gran\u00adde. In ques\u00adto modo, ci\u00f2 che muo\u00adve mol\u00adti nel loro inti\u00admo ver\u00adr\u00e0 alla luce. Ma una spa\u00adda ti tra\u00adfig\u00adger\u00e0 anche l\u2019ani\u00adma\u00bb (Lc 2,34s).
\nUna vita con Ges\u00f9 non \u00e8 solo mor\u00adi\u00adre in pace, ma anche vive\u00adre nella gioia supre\u00adma. Anche lui \u00e8 gi\u00e0 abbastan\u00adza nella vita. E \u2013 c\u2019\u00e8 una dif\u00adfe\u00adren\u00adza di opi\u00adni\u00adone su Ges\u00f9. Egli \u00e8 la pie\u00adtra ango\u00adla\u00adre su cui mol\u00adti inci\u00adam\u00adperan\u00adno. \u00abPer\u00adch\u00e9 Ges\u00f9 \u00e8 la pie\u00adtra che voi cos\u00adtrut\u00adto\u00adri ave\u00adte scar\u00adtato e che ora \u00e8 diven\u00adta\u00adta la pie\u00adtra ango\u00adla\u00adre\u00bb (At 4,11 NL<\/span>). Ques\u00adta frase del Sal\u00admo 118:22 \u00e8 cita\u00adta cin\u00adque vol\u00adte nel Nuo\u00advo Tes\u00adta\u00admen\u00adto. Era la real\u00adt\u00e0 in cui vive\u00adva Ges\u00f9. Il vos\u00adtro att\u00adeg\u00adgi\u00ada\u00admen\u00adto ver\u00adso Ges\u00f9 deter\u00admi\u00adna anche il vos\u00adtro desti\u00adno tra la gioia supre\u00adma e la dis\u00adtru\u00adzi\u00ado\u00adne. Lo abbrac\u00adcia\u00adte \u2013 come Simeone \u2013 o lo guar\u00adda\u00adte da lon\u00adta\u00adno? Cono\u00adsce\u00adte Ges\u00f9 solo per sen\u00adti\u00adto dire o i vos\u00adtri occhi lo han\u00adno visto?
\nAlla fine, Simeone dice a Maria: \u00abUna spa\u00adda tra\u00adpas\u00adser\u00e0 anche la tua ani\u00adma\u00bb. Con il Figlio, anche la Mad\u00adre per\u00adcor\u00adre il cammi\u00adno del\u00adla sof\u00adfe\u00adren\u00adza. Il cul\u00admi\u00adne di ques\u00adta sof\u00adfe\u00adren\u00adza \u00e8 rag\u00adgiunto sul\u00adla cro\u00adce di Ges\u00f9, dove ogni col\u00adpo di mar\u00adtel\u00adlo \u00e8 diven\u00adta\u00adto una \u00abspa\u00adda nel\u00adl\u2019\u00adani\u00adma di Maria\u00bb. For\u00adse Maria \u00e8 crol\u00adla\u00adta spi\u00adri\u00adtu\u00adal\u00admen\u00adte e fisi\u00adca\u00admen\u00adte in quel momento.
