Like the water of the mountains, the Spirit of the heights seeks the lowest place. He strives downwards. His Church bears the lowly and childlike spirit which alone is of God. She is with Mary in the stable. The Church comes into being with Christ on the gallows. She goes the way of apostolic poverty. With her one mind and one heart, she honors no one but God in Christ Jesus.

Already now we can live in the power of the future; already now we can shape our lives in accordance with God and his future kingdom. The victory of the spirit is proved in the church community. The kingdom of love, which is free of mammon, is drawing very near. Change your thinking radically so that you will be ready for the coming order.

With the hands of our souls we must hold firmly His burning light, because it wants to penetrate the graves. Nothing else can we have in our hands but His radiant life, because it conquers all worlds of death.
