Word for today
The Gospel of Luke 10:21-24

Paternal decision

Jesus gives praise to God for a very special decision, and while giving thanks, He reveals it to the world: I give you praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike. This is why Jesus gives thanks and praise to the Father, Lord of heaven and earth, and He rejoices in the Spirit. This means that the true knowledge and wisdom for mankind's progress and welfare will never be revealed to the minds and hearts of the wise and the learned of the world. This means that those regarded as the learned and the wise of the earth by people of any and culture will never have the gift of wisdom and knowledge of how everything works and how it can work better in this universe, and this for a precise order of God the Father. This means that their minds are the emptiest and mutest in the universe, as far as they pose as wise and powerful guides of humanity, and receive glory from one another. This means that all that the learned and wise of the world have discovered, produced and revealed to mankind, in the various official branches of human science throughout history, belongs neither to true knowledge nor to true God's wisdom. This means that the knowledge and wisdom that the learned and the wise of this world have reached and upon which they have been basing their empires of power and control, their systems of simulated social and scientific progress, do not come from God and His divine inspiration, but, they definitively come from some other source of inspiration. Perhaps the Enemy, the Evil one knows something about it.
God reveals His knowledge and wisdom only to the simple of the earth, to the humble, to the little ones.  According to His benevolence, God is pleased to reveal His wisdom, the true and effective knowledge for humanity's real progress and evolution to those who, according to the systems of the world, are little and powerless. This is the paternal decision, and Jesus, God the Son, elated by the Holy Paraclete, rejoices and sings it to the world. This means that everything we have built in our cultural, scientific, medical, emotional, political and economic environment, following the paths of official wisdom and knowledge, will not last, absolutely nothing of it will last.
When the Lord of heaven and earth, according to the strength and power of our desire and disposition, considers us ready for a deep and radical interior change,  He will open our minds and hearts so that we can build true and real progress for the welfare of all living beings. This means that the learned and the wise of the world will do everything to mock, slow down, oppress and persecute this profound spiritual change, because in very short time it will cause the end of their power, control and system, forever.
