In these 50 years [...] we have also had a new experience of the presence of the Lord, of his goodness, of his strength. The fire of the Holy Spirit, the fire of Christ is not a consuming or destructive fire; it is a silent fire, a small flame of goodness, of goodness and of truth that transforms, that gives warmth and light. We have seen that the Lord does not forget us. Even today, in His own humble way, the Lord is present and gives warmth to the heart, shows life, creates charisms of goodness and charity that illuminates the world and are for us a guarantee of the goodness of God. Yes, Christ lives, and he is with us today as well, and we can also be happy today because his goodness does not extinguish, it is strong even today.
