Hermanas y hermanos, ¿qué nos de-
pararán los próximos años? ¿Cómo será el
futuro del hombre en la erra? No podemos
saberlo. Sin embargo, es cierto que, además
de los nuevos progresos, no faltarán, por
desgracia, experiencias dolorosas. Pero la luz
de la misericordia divina, que el Señor quiso
volver a entregar al mundo mediante el carisma de sor
Fausna, iluminará el camino de los hombres del tercer
milenio.
Pero, como sucedió con los Apóstoles, es necesario que
también la humanidad de hoy acoja en el cenáculo de la
historia a Cristo resucitado, que muestra las heridas de su
crucixión y repite: "Paz a vosotros". Es preciso que la hu-
manidad se deje penetrar e impregnar por el Espíritu que
Cristo resucitado le infunde. El Espíritu sana las heridas de
nuestro corazón, derriba las barreras que nos separan de
Dios y nos desunen entre nosotros, y nos devuelve la
alegría del amor del Padre y la de la unidad fraterna.
Así pues, es importante que acojamos íntegramente el
mensaje que nos transmite la palabra de Dios en este se-
gundo domingo de Pascua, que a parr de ahora en toda la
Iglesia se designará con el nombre de "domingo de la Mis-
ericordia divina". A través de las diversas lecturas, la litur-
gia parece trazar el camino de la misericordia que, a la vez
que reconstruye la relación de cada uno con Dios, suscita
también entre los hombres nuevas relaciones de solidar-
idad fraterna. Cristo nos enseñó que "el hombre no sólo
recibe y experimenta la misericordia de Dios, sino que está
llamado a "usar misericordia" con los demás:
"Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, porque ellos alcan-
zarán misericordia" (Mt 5, 7
Su mensaje de misericordia sigue llegándonos a través del
gesto de sus manos tendidas hacia el hombre que sufre. Así
lo vio y lo anunció a los hombres de todos los connentes
sor Fausna, que, escondida en su convento de Lagiewniki,
en Cracovia, hizo de su existencia un canto a la misericor-
dia: "Misericordias Domini in aeternum cantabo". El amor a
Dios y el amor a los hermanos son efecvamente insepara-
bles, como nos lo ha recordado la primera carta del apóstol
san Juan: "En esto conocemos que amamos a los hijos de
Dios: si amamos a Dios y cumplimos sus mandamientos" (1
Jn 5, 2).
Feliz y bendecida Segunda Semana de Pascua.
