Hello, how good to be to come back in this Retiro of the way of

you're in the cocha, in the coach, coming into a car, or maybe a pause in your time, you

can't give us to give you a lot of a car that's just for the vacations. This verand took a

different and was the world that we've lived with much intensity, with much emotion.

We've had been see and sympathize with people, with people, with

many situations that were in the last these times, that we have

enjoyed, even to even to the football, well, evidently something of what

is the world, it's going to not only only in the emotion personal,

but also in the environment, we've seen how the world is making

the temperature, the emotion of many countries, of many cities, and how a party

is a big center of a whole a country. I mean to be to be in the city of

Mexico before the party of Mexico against the and then after the party

and the environment was totally different to the party was a emotion

there was an lot of the people for for to

get that victory and after the that day fatigued so

it was not about in the city that that that that's

that we had got the world but it sure that were

some special where our state of our was

more marked for what was so in those in those

parties where many people like people people know

the magic of the football all what what

englo and is that is that is not moment we've

football, we've been that capacity to illusion us, to get us to get us that's

that's enervio, that capacity also to celebrate together to forget us to get to many of

many of our countries in our cities, to suffer together to be to be

to be to that's that's that's our our that's our

to a phases more important during the World. And I think that all of this has been very good. I think it's very human, to be inusonar us, it's very human to be to be waiting a little a routine, that makes to make the calendar

with gannas and go and going to mark there the feches and, and, also, have lived on vacations, some have been

backations, others have gone to the house of his parents, others we've used to ask us for descansar, certainly

some more has done a volunteerial or other simply and simply and they've been days

with a rhythm distinct, a rhythm more than even the many cities, and they're

in these times because it's a lot much the traffic and it a rhythm

that the time that we we've been that all over of the year and

all this is good no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, there's also, we're that we're when we enjoy when we enjoy sanamently of the things good that he

us regala and that the man is, but it was but it was what we had to pass, what we knew to happen. The 19th of

July, it was the final, he was the cup and little to the stadiums were vacations, the same

players, and to make the same we're doing to us to go to us, we're talking to us to

us to live, to adjuster the Desperator, maybe, to go back to the university, to start the

reunions, is going to the traffic, to get a call it, and the notifications of WhatsApp,

of those groups of the work that we have been that we're actually archivated

and maybe more more of one even even more than it has been there

there's there there because, although it's sympathetic, I think that all we can understand what it means. No, no, no, no, no we don't we ask us if there's another Worldial, into four years, because it will

have. We'll have this sensation that that's when it's when it's not just with the Worldial, we're going to every time that terminate something good, every time that's end of the time, when it's a time of my family, when it's a time, when it's a return, when we're a mission, when

we're going to a vacation, when to have in a campament, when terminate the summer, there's a little nostalgia, and it's completely normal.

The fact, I think it would be rare if not existier. We're extranames that really the value in our life.

We're feeling nostalgia for that you did it. And then then, then, thinking it

well, the question not is that there is a life after the world. The question

is how living when it's a something in our life? How to affrontar that something extraordinary in our life terminate? Because if we're conscious, the major part of our

life not is made of finals of a world. The major part of our life is made of the lunas, of the classes, of work, of pendent, of responsibilities. And here appears a temptation that I think we've ever been ever that's to start to

live all those days as if were simply the time that we have to leave to pass until that the first or the next grand happen.

Expect to the next voyage, to the next point, the next time, expect to the next retreat,

living, waiting, that return, that come back the vacations, expect the holiday, expect the

next year, like if the life of really, always would be a little more

ahead of us. Like if the present were only a a cell of a

way the ordinary were only a one of a lot of a great of the

extraordinary and maybe today he's to make to make us to make

us to help us that the life not when when

the life is that is that is that

is that we're that we're that we're because

curiousam he also he had a life that

was much more more more more And, while he d'

uh, and there a passage of the evangelio one and other a time to my, a new

a time, a new time a very that many many times it's a dispercivido because

just it implic a much some and it's at the final of the episode of

Jesus when he he's he's in the time you know, you know,

that's the moment in which Jesus with two years he They're in Jerusalem and her mother and his papa, Maria and Jose,

they look, angustied during three days, and finally they're talking with the doctors of the law. It's an scene, I imagine that impressive. Because all are admired in this moment of his intelligence. And one could say that that was the moment in which Jesus would start to do the things extraordinary that had been thought or that could do. And, but, in fact, the Evangelio says something different.

He says, and Jesus back with them to Nazareth and lived subject to them. And creased in sabiduria, in stature, and in grace, and God, and to God. I never made have called the attention

that he, because humanly seems a pass to a path to back. Acaba to surprise to the Maestors of Israel. Acaba to enter who is.

Acaba to leave a spoiler of who is really he. And, and, but, But, however, will go to Nazareth,

will to his house, will to the normality, will be a life that seen from it's not

absolutely nothing to special. And I asked if ever we never been to think of

that you Jesus passed approximately 30 years of your life in Nazareth, 30.

It was only three years going to the can't the people,

making many disciples, formando apostolels. And so that a

transcurrieu in a little, making a life a single, certainly with routine, with things

super-ordinary and I think that's a simple data biographical. If the Spirit-Santo he said

that St. Lucas would be because there was there was because Jesus

not was not because Jesus not was a pause in his life until that was the moment

to present in his life public, in those moments, in those years, Jesus yeah was living plainly the Voluntary of the Father. And I think there's a grand difference

there with us, no? Because if we're sincere, how many times, as we say we, we're thinking in when when I'm this job, when I'm can't be depost, when I'm cased, when they can't, when they're more time, when they get in the

next vacations, no? Like, always, we're postponing many things of our life, and we're postponing the life, until that's many things. And it's

curious, because as I'm like you know, it's a real realdad, the realdad the realtor, the

that we're going to start a little bit and then. And, and then we live the

present, as if were a simple tramite, like if had to have to

get to the important. But Jesus no, vivio not was thinking, oh,

to be until when when you get in the miracles, to be a bit public, to see

I'll be here I'll be here the country. He never the count of he lived completely the step that

the father he gave and that's profoundly liberator. Because it means that the

God is only in the great events also in the times normal and the life

and it's in a semester, it's in a work, in a family normal,

is in an officeina in a salon of classes. Also, also in a

life that that's in a have nothing that's spectacular, maybe

not have nothing to poste in Instagram, maybe not have the great stories or

reels to publish to the end of the summer or of the summer or of the

vacations and it and no doesn't not? Because here in this

evangelio appears also something also something so Lucas

not said that Jesus simply passed those years

there over reviving, existing, no, but it's a word super-senicial, but that's a word super-senic,

but that's the form of getting, he's- was trying, and the first thing in the scripture that was in

sabiduria, and here I think it is a matter, then we're a moment, because we know,

we're always the knowledge, like the knowledge, like a synonym of intelligence,

we're, we think we've studied much, that has studied much, that has studied much, that has many responses, that has much culture, but the Bible, entiened the sabiduracy of other way. The sabiduria for a Jewel not consisted,

first in knowing much things. Consistia in learning to live, in learning to look the reality as much to look to God, in to learn to distinguish the important of the urgent,

in learning, in learning to learn, in learning to learn. For so, the books sapientiales in the Antioe Testament, they're

talking about the sabiturial. Because they're a person can't have a

lot of many times and then about, take very bad decisions and not

to learn to learn to be there. There can be people who have people that have

a great, because have learned to have learned to distinguish the important of the of the passageero.

And then then then then we can't to start or we we can start to start that that's what

really was what really was going to Nazareth. Jesus was growing humanly and was learning a

office, was having to work to work to say, was about the life

and I'm doing the life the fidelity of the day, the patience,

the responsibility, the work well, the work, the

all this form a part of the incarnation of God. Not

were 30 years vacions in mode it's a or in mode

avion. It were 30 years profoundly fecunded and here I feel

that's something we need to we need to hear at this month that semester this work or this

new at that you are living or retomar the activities and responsibilities that you have been

because it's very easy think, well right the important is to start all this to

that the year that termine the year you have to to be to survive, that pass in the

months and then will then will be able a lot of but if no, and if

God not you say you say you're saying it's saying it's not necessarily

to be not with great experiences not with emotions constant but but

that that's that that can't live every more

more because at final that is the mother is Christian

no consists in accumulate retires, in accumular emotions, in accumular compromises, but in learning to live as the children. And then, as, as well, as well, we said, because, not us is saying, God,

that we've got to give us in mode of it, but we're just let that our heart listen that word of God that says, Creece. Because, not it's not sure it's, maybe the word that We look when

when we start a semester, when we go to work or the university, what we do we're in

that the things are that we're not we're not that the time that's that the traffic that's a good, that's, in the world, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm gladable,

that the environment of work, Reworthy, in what God that wants God that he's that this time.

And that's what we can't change the mirate to be what we do we

and what we need more later. Because then then we're not not we're

only the time, the time, the months, of the years, but we're

to be able to ask us to ask us what is doing God into of us what

he wants to be God and it's there's where then Nazareth, the time

of Jesus in Nazareth starts a way more important for us

because the evangelio says that Jesus was in his and

then we're also we're called to grow in that

sabiduria as how how how we learn to

learn to learn to look to look to to distinguish what is a value and what

not value to learn the life, to learn to learn to learn to even when not is the

more more, how it's how much, and that's precious, is a great thing we

do you know, because to be sadious, to create, as a way to do you, it's a way,

and not to postpone the life. So, then we'll understand better that time

of Jesus in Nazareth because Jesus not was going to pass the time, was growing

as a man, learning, living the life in family, learning the office,

as we saying, working with his own with his own the

things and the other and the things normal of normales

of any person so, so if Jesus was capable of appreciate

these processes, these times, we're also we're invited to to do

the process of the day-a-day even don't have any of emotions, although

no have nothing spectacular at the view of the people

of the person of the person but we're those moments

where we're in fidelity in in sensuous and

to recognize to God in the ordinary, in the simple, so so again, to go back to Jesus

and say to Lord, what you want to teach me in this chapter of my life, in this month, in these days, no, in the five years,

no when I'm going to the career, no when I'm going to the prepa, no, in any other circumstance, now,

in this time, in this officeina, in this family, in this community, in this entorn, because

every step to give us. And the danger that we can't have is to want to pass rapid to the next step, without learn the lection or receive the fruit that God has prepared for our heart in the chapter

actual and that then we can allow us to say, now I'm I'm trying to do this. Now I'm what I learned, thanks to this. Now I'm into what this person came to teach me in my life. Normally, all that's

all that happens when we know when we give us the opportunity to recognize that God

is capable to teach us when we we look we're doing in the simple, in the

ordinary, no. And to to do this, that that me, that also,

that's, that's, another passage of the evangelio, no, that can illuminate and

connect very we have been having, no, there's a moment where

Jesus has to come to make sure to do his sacrifice, he says to his disciples,

things things to start, we can start a semester, we can start a work, a project, a newviagos, a, start to go to a gymnasia, a diet,

although then we abandoning, to start emotional, always be an emotion in all the initial, but the difficult

is permanence. And that also also we've seen during the Worldial, no, at the principle, all the first

every part of, is a surprise and there's all sides, and we're all the other side if we're about bitina and of Curazawa and of, I know

Christiano Ronald, Messi Lamin Jamal and we're still and we're pendentous of all, of the eliminations of the stories that are that are appearing. But when it's all of that, when it's the emotion,

that also is part of the, of the, of the life man. And also we're going to in the life spiritual, no? No, no, emotion the retiro,

no emotion that adoration that's adoration that took our heart of the confession, that was

a pass enormous, that perigination, that campament, that reflection that we've that we've seen, that

was a matter, that's been spectacular. There are moments in that one is always come back

the oration, that never more to be a way to be a left of God, and ohhala were so

so, so, so that's so so it's but it permanence. Because

we all know that time or the morning, it's the starter and the

pras, the freeas, the exercises, the meetings, and almost

without the oration, that emotion that we had been with God, especially

in the relation, it's to get to when there time.

And the misa in domingo, then we we're raskand to

see if we get us a time to the evangelio of the misa in the semester between the time, then we're

not because we're going posponient and not because we just because the life with his

rhythm normal we're involved and we're inunding and it's cost a time to remainer. And Jesus

we can't remember the day of today that we that we don't confundable the emotion with the fidelity, that not are the

emotion is a a gift, and the fidelity is a decision. And the two are very good, but no depend on the same. There are days in those that rest you're more enthusiasm, and there are to give you give to God for those days.

But there are others in those that we're going to be the evangelist, and we think that no pass absolutely nothing. And precisely those days also are also part of the life spiritual.

Because permanence not consists in to feel always the same. Consist

in to keep eligending to the not you and other and other

and for so I think it's important this passage because when

Jesus about to he like the and the

sarmiento well he he he not he he he

about a bit is a a not a

produce fruit because one day took much force. Produce fruit because permanence united to the tronco, because permanence connected to the roots. And all of the life depends of that union. And that is an image

that I think we can help very in these days, in this month. That no, that not it's trying to go doing things extraordinary for God, that not to be expecting things extraordinary of God,

but it's not disconnect us to him. And, and and to avoid to get in that trap to think that the life

spiritual consists in adding activities and emotions. A retire more, a

little more, a book more, that you help they're they're definitely.

But before, before more experiences, Jesus us need another.

Permane to not not to him, not to be that they

make a time so to talk with him, not live like if we could have just to our life

Christian. Because if something we know a a ram or a plant, is that when they're

they're not a lot too, at the first it's still like the soh the soil

still there, but little to get to receive the sabia and in a couple of days

we have we're a second and with us can happen something nobody

doesn't of rest to do a day to another nobody to be

a bad at God to get to be to be to find in God

of the night of the morning normally going to a point.

A or a one a a meeting a

next a next a a confession that and

we don't know we're always a little more

more more more because we have decided apart

we permanence. We just we're to remain and then you can

think, or can say, but I want to be the problem is that I can't

the time, but it's really the life, the life, we're used to be very exigent,

both in the university, in the job, in the family, what it's not, no, no,

it's not it's not it's many times the question not if we're, for,

for God, not, but if we, if we have the capacity to put a God in the time and in

the activities that we're and for so the importance of the great-of-s to be able to have the

criteria, to be the same mind that has Jesus over our realities, to have the

same criteria that has Jesus over our realities, and then then just

to be them sovern natural, viveless with their and so

so, without wanting, we're going, we're not only only putting a God in

those activities, but also looking more to God, to us to keep illuminating and

us will keep in the rhythm real of our life. And so so, so,

God, God, God, in that, in that life real, sincere,

and ordinary, that all, that we all we have to have to be many many things, a

we do we do so great that just upon if we're one of a month and then we're frustrated because we don't us do with us and we're in this, now there are

the initial of courses or in this, in this month or in this continuation of the semester because we need us

promises spectacular and we need a fidelity humilded to say the Lord, I'm going to be to

keep to my 10 or 15 minutes of oration I'm to procure a space of silence,

after to hear my reflection of the evangelion of the day. I'm going to not only to go to

go to make a time, but I'm going to try to get to maybe a day to be going to

make a mess and confessing. I'm going to start the day, I'm going to start the day,

I'm going to give us and I'm giving and you're saying, but at times,

those occasions where not you know to know the other and those was little. Also, Nazareth

was a little, and in fact that was a Salvador of the world. And, well,

that's what we need to remember when all the normality, that God not always make the

things of fire of artificial. It's made grow from silence, with patience, how crescent, how crescent,

how creases, the roots, a family, how creases, a family, how creases a vocation, and also

how creases a disciple and how creases an apostle. So, moving a little to the image of the

world with the world, with the we can we can't imagine what the people have seen the

people, the people have been the protagonists, the figures in stadiums people that were

the emotive ceremonies of the hymns, the celebrations, the training and all the

passion that generated in their environment the convivences between them

and the possibility certainly to play the partitions most important for a football

for a football for a world is to play the world is and you can't do you know and

all those those people have been or are going to their clubs to their realities

some to leagues important and others a league as a league as much more simple

much more humildes no, we'll in all those those countries that

first first first were in the small and the other countries

of countries much more more more and they are

going to their canches to to his trainings

more more more different and with all always

to to maybe not have many, not have many privileges, to be a every rata and

no, and I think that any one of those think that his career has

terminated, because it's the world, you know, that the

world has been a moment extraordinary, but know, that the

footballist is in the training in the other and that now now

and that want to want to want to want to have to have

to do the best in every training, in every part of the league, because they're the dream

maybe to return to get a world. And all of that's implic a discipline,

implic a perseverance, implic a fidelity, implic to continue training. Even when

there's when no there's when no they're not not you know, when you know,

and we're we're we're doing things like things like like, like

and as like you know, and as I think to give to give us very much,

not to not feel for having us have been disutated, God that our

life that our life, that there celebrations, that there world that there

trophies, that there six partidos, that there retires that that are there

amissions that they need to that love that there love that is the

love, that all that is a a gift of God, but no we can't permit that those moments

are the way that we just we're in the life. Because then any Lune's, any Marches, then we'll

be a little and the truth is that is a a matter. I don't where I've heard heard

that that says, that the life is that that's what that's we're

not we and we we don't we're going that we don't that we're the temptation to

the vacations, waiting the yearnest, waiting the point, waiting that the semester, expecting that

get that that's the time, expecting the next time, the next year, or what that's ever,

and that we're going the life, this is passing God for us, are passing people and

almas for our life and we let us having to pass opportunities to love.

And then with the time discover that what we'd have a routine was in reality our life

for so it's so it's so important to recognize, accept and live our Nazareth because Jesus no,

he's per to start to live, to start to love, to salvarnus. Vivio 30 years preparing

the heart with the then I'm the reina the reina. And that

that preparation was part of the Rein of God. Because the the Voluntary of the Father, never was a parenthesis in the

life of Jesus. It's always your life. And that's also our form to runcare this month and to get a routine.

Now, it's just about to organize our hour, to, to, to get the agenda,

but to ask us how I want to live this time. The way God wants

that I think that I'm in this phase of my life. Not only what I

want to continue, but in who I want to continue to convert me. Because at final,

that is to be to grow in their not to accumulate experiences. It's

to make that every experience us make a little more more more than

Christ. And then then we can't we can make some some

these retiro, not because they're the only possible but because there

can be to get to all this. The first,

then this these months, these months, like a house of a second not a

time, not to get to the next vacations, the next the next thing, what

that's the point, the next time, the second the life is going to say, ask us

to ask us all the days, what you want to me to give to me, and I

want to the day to you want to you want to that The second purpose that we can have or attitude that we can is to keep our raises,

permanence, not to start to feel a sense to rest to ask to God. Although some days the oration is very simple, although others you distracts, although there are some more pesada, permanence unied to him. Because the roots are precisely when nobody is there being.

to remain unisd in the worship, in the sacraments. And the third,

to ask you to the God, not we need to be only that all the all get to

learn to learn to learn to learn to learn to learn to learn to do you

learn to do you to get to live as a good because at final

that is the true that is the true and now before before to terminate,

I'd like that we'd want to an oration another way. Not to ask that

everything, not to ask that we don't have problems, but to ask you that Jesus

was cultivating during many years in Nazareth and that he made to live a need

to a father and that's that's that's the father, so,

then we we put we have in a mode of connection with God God, God,

and we say, Thank you for the moments extraordinary that have given our life,

thanks for the people with that we have this this very for the

time, for the restance, for the illusions, for all that that we

know what what can do you can be the life. And

thanks also because today you give us a new tap. And we

We don't want to live it with nostalgia, we want to live it with you. Ensignan us to discover you in the days in the studio, in the work, in our family, in our friends, in the responsibilities of every day. Don't us the

sabiduery of Nazareth. Ensign us to learn of the life, to electing the good, to learn to grow from into, even when for the out it appears that not is happening

nothing extraordinary. And when when get in the days of Cansancio, Recurten us Your words, Permanescan in me.

That not depend us only the Lord of the emotions, that no dejects when

fall in the Gannas, that we don't we let us let us do the prasel

in you, because we know that there is our force and as Jesus also we

also we want to grow in sabiduria creas in grace, crees

as you and that when into some years we'll make us back, we'll discover that also

these months apparently normales were a time precious in that you were you were making

our heart our heart. Amen. I'm the Father Joaquin Sainz that

God you thank you.
