ícone The Illustrious Character

His birthday is celebrated by almost all over the world. About Him, His figure, people meet up and discuss.

People discuss about His existence, of which He did and said. He has not written anything besides a few words in the sand, when someone brought Him a woman to be judged.

However, thousands of works were written about Him. His fame ran the world. Without the existence of honorific titles or academic degrees, what he has said is wisdom and the ones who base their lives in His words, find happiness.

He chose cooperators by finger, among simple people, but of good formation and called them friends, cultivating the friendship.

His public life was short, almost three years, but very controversial. He talked about everything, saying what was right, warning people to the mistakes, urging people to think about what they saw, heard, not allowing them to simply be conducted as blind with no direction.

His emphasis was the good sense. Docile, He knew how to wisely use His energy when it was necessary. Loving, He provided His love to those who were looking for it.

He was always with His people, by the people and His words were special for each one.

To the fishermen He knew how to speak about fish and fishing net. To the shepherds He spoke about sheep, fold and the quality of a good shepherd. With the women of the people, He talked about the leaven which leavens the dough, about the concerning that they should have with their children, with their future.

He invited everyone to act in the good, as a recipe for happiness. He taught detachment, teaching that the Father's house is for all. And the Father's house is immense. It is the Universe.

He embraced children and took them in His bosom. He stopped to talk to a good young man who was feeling dissatisfied and seeking for something else for his life. He invited him to follow Him.

He explained to the Doctor of the law who sought Him in the middle of the night, in order to dispel his doubts and has opened to him and to the future, the revelation of a life that never dies, that is repeated in many opportunities until the Spirit reaches the perfection.

He compared Himself to the shepherd who knows           His sheep and protects them. He compared Himself to the friend who gives his life for his friends. He accepted for Himself only the title of Master.

He did not allow anyone to call Him good, because this denomination is unique to the Father, the Lord of the Universe.

He always respected the laws of men, even that they might seem silly or unfair. He paid taxes in the temple, a requirement of the priests of His time.

He urged to pay the taxes to Caesar, a requirement of the world of transitional things.

Sensitive, He understood the pain of the widow of the city of Naim and because He found out that her son was bearer of lethargy, He invited him to return to life.

In the house of Jairus, He touched the daughter who seemed dead and gave her back to the bosom of the parents.

His path was all of light. Nothing was required to Himself, although He was the light of the world.

He said He did not have even a stone of yours to rest His head. Confident, He taught that the Heavenly Father who attended the tiny birds that did not sew or harvest, would equally attend the needs of all His children.

Peasant, he knew how to slam poems about the beauty of the landscape, while He taught that man is a lot more than the grass of the field, which today is and tomorrow will be thrown to the fire.

He taught that God, the Father of love, clothed the lilies of the field, and thus also oversees the necessary for His children, more valuable than the flowers that wilt.

He taught that anyone should fear death, because everyone is immortal and has held the passage from this to the spiritual life, in prayer: Father, into Thy hands I commend my Spirit.

He returned, glorious, attesting the Immortality and, showing Himself to His, He allowed them to hear His sweet voice, once again speaking of peace and saying: Be of good cheer. I have overcome the world.

His name is Jesus. The son of Joseph and Mary. The son of God, our Brother and Teacher.
