[:pt]Que seja o Ano do Sim!

Dec 23, 2014

Christmas greetings of Maria Voce, in the spirit of taking to heart God’s will and the needs of our brothers and sisters.

May 2015 be the Year of our “Yes”

“I wish everyone a Christmas full of gifts and joy, especially gifts from Heaven.

With gratitude in my heart for this year that is ending, I would like 2015 to be the year of our ‘Yes’! This means that before any situation we should say a joyful and total yes. A yes repeated infinite number of times: yes to God who asks us something unforeseen, yes to that person who needs our concrete love, yes to an unexpected suffering, yes to Jesus who awaits us in humanity so as to be welcomed, transforming suffering into joy, life and resurrection. Yes, always yes.

May a “choir of yeses” rise from us all this year so as to make the world smile with that joy that only Jesus can give us. Best wishes to all!”

Maria Voce (Emmaus)
