 The pine, four letters and four parts, like four are the syllables of the word Garabandal and four are the Cardinal points, which takes root on the earth where man lives, and like a natural arrow, points to the sky where God reigns. ?What does the pine, that so familiar christmas guest, invite us to do? Garabandal message says clearly to us: Jesus in His Body and Soul, in His Blood and Divinity, is waiting for us patiently, for each of us, even for the vilest one, with an incomprehensible love which could never our small heart realize, an incommesurable and unknown love, locked-in every tabernacule in the world, alone. What is God asking us for? Really, something so human as keeping His company. Jesus Crucified begs our affection as a beggar of love, He is deadly thirsty for our souls. Everyone has felt the experience of being thirst. Won4t we give our Redimer a small sip of what He wishes? Ok, let4s stand on earth, many unfaithful will say: Come on!, if God exists, is He going to make Himself a piece of bread to be locked-in a tabernacule and to stand that noone visits Him, and even being abused and humillated? That4s incredible! The christian will realize disquietly that it4s really incredible, and that God4s judges are incomprehensible. God is also endlessly humble. But, what will be our position? won4t it remain a doubt? won4t He be really there? Let us not do it so bad that we don4t believe because it seems incredible! Can4t God do both the credible and the incredible. If it were the truth, won4t it be the incommesurable proof of an indescribable love that we could reject in a act of vulgarity of the same proportions, because of the absurd barrage imposed to God of what is credible or incredible for us? Let4s accept it, when God is your friend, you have to believe what seems incredible. Furthermore, what a risk we suffer trying! As the christian who comes in front of the tabernacule to keep the King4s of Glory company, although it4s just for five minutes a day, and say the usual simplenesses: "Well, here I am", that one ends up winning His Presence. I won4t try to convince with words. Who better than He, from His hidden and sacred throne! Maybe, I won4t deny it, that the problem arises afterwards when as soon as the fog is dispersed, you begin to guess the truth which it had been always there, and realize that you and the world have been, and still are, getting on like prize fools, far from the only and true reality of the being who exists. God allows us to do, allows us to deny Him, but He exists. Will we end up like the worm which knows the sea when it4s being pierced by a fishhook? We can avoid to be taken by surprise. So, let everyone go in front of the tabernacule, and little by little, for five to five minutes, end up finally knowing our Redimer and saying plenty of hapiness and conviction: "Cheer Jesus Eucharist, cheer and be loved by everyone".
