When Jesus reached the other shore, in the country of the Gadarenes, two demoniacs came to meet him, coming out of the tombs, so furious that no one could pass that way. And behold, they began to shout: «What is there between us and you, Son of God? Have you come here before your time to torment us?” (see Matthew 8:28-29)
Beloved brothers of the ethereal angelic lineage, once valiant guardians of Good and Light, but who for too long have fallen under the shadow of evil, becoming followers of the prince of this world. I feel your fear, a deep fear that resonates in every sensation and vibrates in every part of your being. Two millennia have passed since you found yourself face to face with the Divine, with God the Son, Jesus, an encounter that exposed your fragility and vulnerability, reminding you of your finiteness. And now, perceive the imminence of a time of torment, an era foretold by the immutable North Star, the Bible, which is about to be fulfilled.
This is the era in which the shadows begin to give way, albeit reluctantly, in the face of the unstoppable triumph of Light. The time has come when evil begins to dissolve, while justice is strengthened. This truth shakes your being to the core, shattering any illusion of security. Your panic attacks, which torment you incessantly day and night, are the harbinger of this time of anguish. And they are not wrong; they are authentic testimonies of an imminent catastrophe.
The torment comes because with it the Divine Light returns, in its full majesty. This Light inflicts a deep and acute pain on the fibers of your being corrupted by evil. It’s like a sharp blade that penetrates the soul, making the torment unbearable, excruciating. This Light, sharp and implacable, dispels the darkness hidden in the soul, like a sword that pierces the veil of being. The pain is intense, overwhelming, with tears that burn like fire and a heart that beats to the rhythm of a battle against despair. You find yourself bent over, your hands shaking like leaves in the wind, your heart pounding, your voice weak and uncertain.
In this abyss, you will question the nature of what you are experiencing, never having faced such a devastating internal storm. You will wonder if this is the beginning of the end. And the answer is unequivocal: yes, it is.
However, from this deep abyss emerges an unexpected blessing, a gift of divine mercy. This torment, this dark night of the soul, becomes an alarm bell that awakens you from a nightmare, a call to a new awareness.
Awaken, children of the Almighty, for the time of salvation has come. An invigorating Light, brighter than any dawn ever seen before, now touches the remaining sparks of your spirit, lighting a fire of hope. Your eyes open wide on a once invisible path, now illuminated by a Light that promises a return home, towards the embrace of a Father who awaits you with unconditional love.
