Juan Sara. Secular Institutes According to Hans Urs ... - Communio

336 Juan M. Sara
It is, of course, the Son who brought about the most beautiful
expression of joy in the triune God and who communicated to
us a hint of what the joy of the triune God in heaven might be
like. But the Son’s joy in God contains his joy in all creatures
that he has received from God the Father, for they have all been
created for him, even those that are now unfaithful to their
destination. The highest, most precious thing that the Father has
given his Son is his mother, and all those who belong to him in
some way become newly lovable on her account. But in all
creatures the Son sees mirrored the joy that the Father has in
him, the Son, and this experience of the Son is so sublime that
we are unable to follow it, because it belongs in the hidden realm
of trinitarian joy. But even this hidden reality is not inaccessibly
closed to us, and all at once we understand that joy in God is
what pushes our limits further and further, because it is not we
who create this joy, but the infinite God who implants it ever
more deeply in us. 60
