O Sapientia!
Gospel – Matthew 1:1-17
“The genealogy of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham…”. The genealogy of Jesus Christ is not some names. It shows how God prepared the way for His incarnation. Genealogy embraces different generations, different places, different situations, different moments of history, but through all these differences run the single reality of the plan of God for the incarnation of His Son in our midst. When we read this genealogy, this should also be our thought: in my life, happening different things, coming and going different persons, moving to different places, different tasks and jobs, different situations, but in all these circumstances, there is something that connects all these in my life, that is the plan of God for my life so that I can feel the love of God. Advent is the time to feel the plan of God that runs through all the situations in my life.
