A taste of heaven on earth

It has now been a few weeks since I was ordained as Chief Apostle. I am deeply grateful for your prayers, your support, and for all your kind thoughts and messages. Please be assured that I am praying for you all.

This Pentecost meant far more to us than simply a change in the leader­ship of the Church. Our focus was on commemor­ating the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and all that He does. He ­directs our eyes to Jesus Christ and thereby to the truth, which gives us stability and guidance.
In Jesus, we discover who God is for us: not distant, not ­silent, and not indifferent, but a God who comes, who ­humbles Himself and becomes human in order to be with us. He shares our life and our sufferings, and even where ­hatred, violence, and contempt reign, He responds with love: ­“Father, forgive them.”

For all who look to Christ in this way, our annual motto becomes a promise: “Don’t be afraid. Just believe!” In a time, when many people are unsettled, troubled, and anxious, this is the divine answer of the Comforter—for perfect love drives out fear. May the love of Christ touch our hearts so that fear may lose its hold over us. 

You are loved by God, desired, and infinitely precious to Him—just as your neighbour is.

Pentecost brings the language of the heart: a language that unites, uplifts, and establishes peace. Wherever this language is spoken, a little bit of heaven already begins to take shape on earth.
