Jak \u010dlov\u011bk dozr\u00e1v\u00e1 v nevysloviteln\u00fdch d\u016fv\u011brnostech v Bohu, dozr\u00e1v\u00e1 v paradoxn\u00ed moudrosti. Za\u010d\u00ednaj\u00ed ch\u00e1pat Boha jako p\u0159\u00edtomnost, kter\u00e1 n\u00e1s chr\u00e1n\u00ed p\u0159ed ni\u010d\u00edm, i kdy\u017e n\u00e1s B\u016fh nevysv\u011btliteln\u011b podporuje ve v\u0161ech v\u011bcech. To je tajemstv\u00ed k\u0159\u00ed\u017ee, kter\u00e9 odhaluje, cokoli znamen\u00e1, \u017ee nad n\u00e1mi B\u016fh bd\u00ed; neznamen\u00e1 to, \u017ee B\u016fh zabra\u0148uje tomu, aby se stala tragick\u00e1 v\u011bc, krut\u00e1 v\u011bc, nespravedliv\u00e1 v\u011bc. Sp\u00ed\u0161e to znamen\u00e1, \u017ee B\u016fh je d\u016fv\u011brn\u011b skryt\u00fd jako jak\u00e1si hlubok\u00e1, n\u011b\u017en\u00e1 sladkost, kter\u00e1 proud\u00ed a nese n\u00e1s v intimn\u00edch hlubin\u00e1ch samotn\u00e9 tragick\u00e9 v\u011bci – a bude tak \u010dinit v ka\u017ed\u00e9m okam\u017eiku na\u0161eho \u017eivota a\u017e do smrti a skrze ni i po n\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Odevzd\u00e1v\u00e1me-li prostor uvnit\u0159 n\u00e1s, zrajeme pro druh\u00e9<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Jako ovoce dozr\u00e1v\u00e1, napl\u0148uje se v dosa\u017een\u00ed sv\u00e9ho pln\u00e9ho potenci\u00e1lu, aby n\u00e1s vy\u017eivovalo a p\u0159in\u00e1\u0161elo n\u00e1m pot\u011b\u0161en\u00ed. Mohli bychom \u0159\u00edci, \u017ee kdy\u017e ovoce dozr\u00e1v\u00e1, napl\u0148uje se t\u00edm, \u017ee n\u00e1m d\u00e1v\u00e1 samo sebe.

Pak je tu tak\u00e9 ovoce, kter\u00e9 t\u00edm, \u017ee z\u016fstane nesklizen\u00e9, pad\u00e1 na zem a um\u00edr\u00e1. Pou\u010den\u00ed je zde v Je\u017e\u00ed\u0161ov\u00fdch slovech: „Jestli\u017ee p\u0161eni\u010dn\u00e9 zrno nepadne do zem\u011b a neodum\u0159e, z\u016fstane samo, ale jestli\u017ee odum\u0159e, p\u0159inese ston\u00e1sobn\u00fd, tis\u00edcin\u00e1sobn\u00fd u\u017eitek“ (Jan 12,24).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nakonec odum\u0159eme i fyzicky n\u00e1vratem do hlubin Bo\u017e\u00edch<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
A tak je to i s n\u00e1mi. Jak st\u00e1rneme, uv\u011bdomujeme si, \u017ee ve v\u0161em, \u010d\u00edm jsme pro\u0161li, n\u00e1s L\u00e1ska pou\u017e\u00edvala pro sv\u00e9 vlastn\u00ed \u00fa\u010dely. A za to c\u00edt\u00edme nesm\u00edrnou vd\u011b\u010dnost. V\u00edme tak\u00e9, \u017ee n\u00e1\u0161 nevyhnuteln\u00fd odchod, p\u0159i n\u011bm\u017e pad\u00e1me do zem\u011b a um\u00edr\u00e1me, nen\u00ed koncem na\u0161eho zral\u00e9ho a prom\u011bn\u011bn\u00e9ho \u017eivota. Je to sp\u00ed\u0161e n\u00e1\u0161 p\u0159echod do nekone\u010dn\u00e9ho a nesmrteln\u00e9ho napln\u011bn\u00ed. Svat\u00fd Jan od K\u0159\u00ed\u017ee [1542-1591] mluv\u00ed o ne\u010dekan\u00e9 radosti. [1] Kdy\u017e ovoce velmi dozraje, m\u016f\u017ee sebemen\u0161\u00ed v\u00edtr zp\u016fsobit jeho p\u00e1d na zem. Plat\u00ed to i pro n\u00e1s, a to nejen v tom smyslu, \u017ee se u\u010d\u00edme b\u00fdt nezni\u010diteln\u00ed a napln\u011bn\u00ed ve v\u0161ech ne\u010dekan\u00fdch mal\u00fdch po\u017eehn\u00e1n\u00edch, kter\u00e1 k n\u00e1m b\u011bhem dne p\u0159ich\u00e1zej\u00ed.
