Annotations

This book is a collection of aphorisms that can be read in any order. They are reflections stemming from an event, a convivence or an encounter; spiritual wake-up calls either announcing or denouncing; questions or calls to hope that the reader feels are for him: sometimes daring confidences that spring from the author’s soul; occasionally, they take the form of a hymn or a psalm, full of ardent pleas and fervent thanksgiving to God.From the dates contained in the little passages, one can somewhat follow the historical thread from 1988 to 2014. The passages are united by the history of faith of the author and of the Neocatechumenal Way more than by the development of a theme, although many references to this specific charism are dispersed throughout.It is a history full of joys and sufferings; it reveals the author’s struggle to fulfill faithfully the commission he has received from God.(Ricardo Blázquez Perez, Cardinal Archbishop of Valladolid).
