SUMMARY:Weekday
DESCRIPTION:The Meaning of the Incarnation in Ordinary Time\nA Meditation by Dom Augustin Guillerand \nInstead of attempting to free ourselves from the things of the senses\, or\nabstracting from them\, we should try to probe deeper into them; not stopping at\ntheir external appearance\, which changes\, but seeking what is hidden deep in\ntheir substance: their being\, in a word. For God is Being. And thus we shall find\nhim beneath the veil of the senses. \nThis is the meaning of the Incarnation. God became tangible\, in order to\nteach us to find him in all that we touch and see and feel; for we are necessarily\nbound to the senses in this life. Jesus did not do away with these external\ncontacts; what he taught us is not to stop at them. He taught us to find His\nFather in everything: in the flowers\, in the lilies of the field\, in the birds\, in\nsorrow – in everything\, because everything comes from his love\, and must return\nto it. That while we acknowledge him as God seen by men\, we may be drawn by\nhim to the love of things unseen. \nWe must endeavour\, therefore\, to cultivate this spiritual ‘second sight’. It\nis the secret of the saints\, for whom this world is not an obstacle between their\nsouls and God\, but a living image\, a resplendent mirror of his goodness and\nbeauty. It is this great Reality\, so utterly beyond our conception\, that the\nIncarnation made possible: that by loving and imitating Jesus incarnate\, we love\nand imitate God himself. \nDom Augustin Guillerand. Where Silence is Praise. Trans. A Monk of Parkminster. London: Darton\,\nLongman & Todd\, 1960. 121-122.
