Paolo Cugini
He had healed many, so that those who had any ailment
pressed upon him to touch him (Mk
3:10).
Hear, O earth, the word that resounds from ancient
times. In an age of confusion, a prophet arises to proclaim what is already
written deep in our hearts, but which humanity, corrupted by time and
selfishness, has tragically forgotten. It is the call to original purity, to
the source of that Life that once walked among us.
It was not a harsh judge who walked the dust of our
streets, but the Word made flesh: the manifestation of pure goodness. He did
not bear laws written in stone, but a body pulsating with the energy of love.
He was an inexhaustible source, capable of healing every evil, every deep
wound, and every sore of the soul. Before His gaze, every resentment and every
lie melted away like snow in the sun; His essence was authentic life, a light
that revealed the illusion of human corruption.
All humanity, marked by the Fall and burdened by sin,
was drawn to Him as to an inextinguishable beacon. Everyone flocked to this
source, seeking that energy of infinite love capable of recharging and
renewing, day after day, anyone who had the courage to drink from it.
The Shadow and the Sea: The Unfinished Gift. Today we
turn our gaze toward the sea, where the Master retreated in quiet with His
disciples. In those moments of silence and contemplation, He poured out His
deepest existential and spiritual essence. Yet, history presents us with a
bitter paradox: His closest followers failed to fully grasp the immensity of
that gift. What has come down to us through institutions is often only a
shadow, a faded reflection of His true spiritual stature.
The Alabaster Vase: Mary Magdalene But in this
landscape of oblivion, there is no room for despair. There exists an
"alabaster vase" that has preserved intact the essence of the Master.
It is in the style, the exquisite sensitivity, and the profound love of Mary
Magdalene that we find the most faithful reflection of Him who was Love.
She, the beloved disciple, did not stop at the surface
of doctrine, but understood the mystery of redeeming love. In Mary Magdalene,
that one way, that one truth, and that one life that the world desperately
seeks, lives again. Listening to her testimony, rediscovering her sensitivity,
means returning to the beating heart of the Gospel. In her, the Master's energy
is not a memory of the past, but a living presence that still calls humanity to
reawaken today.
