A shipwreck, fire, earthquake, accident, illness, a desperate economic situation, in life there are many situations in which we ask, beg, intensely expect help from others, the arrival of a rescue team.
Thank God, there are thousands of men and women willing to lend a helping hand. Fire and medical, law enforcement and volunteers, give the best of themselves in rescue operations for those living in emergency situations or under serious pressure.
human bailouts soothe and restore hope. But sometimes reach only to a certain limit, beyond which it can not happen.
For the rescue of the doctor is not always able to heal the sick and relieve their pain deeper. For the rescue of firefighters often arrive late or fails, to the power of the elements, put out the fire. Because the police can not act appropriately to prevent a tragic outcome in the kidnapping of a loved one.
In other cases, recovery can not come from men, because it affects our heart. When we have fallen into the deep well of selfishness when we grown a hatred that eat away at the soul, when we feel intense grief at the failures of life, when we have sinned against God and neighbor, who can save us?
is true that there are medicines and psychological treatments that may provide some relief. But such actions come to a point beyond which they can do nothing. For if we sin, all you need is a definitive cure, the encounter with God in the prayer that asks for forgiveness and mercy. Because the mystery of death that robs us of a loved one or who comes inevitably to the gates of life, is only looking at the horizon of the eternal and beg God to take us in his infinite Love.
Faced with these situations more intimate, moments "Limit" of our existence, the final redemption can only come from someone who is above the laws of physics and biological, and who cares for us. Pleading eyes to heaven, then, a divine hand, an intimate comfort, a forgiveness that arises out of mercy.
God can not be indifferent to the cries of their children. In the thousand walks of life, we ask, humbly, to save us, help us, we offer the ultimate rescue that yearn the heart of every human being.
