Solemnity of Christ the King • Year C
It was the end of the beginning … the end of that first phase of the story of human destiny. It had begun with such great hope … God making humans in his own image because he wanted to have someone else to love and to have that someone freely love him in return. But things went bad quickly. Humans envied God more than loved him. They tried to be God and consequently lost the grand possibility of being with God for all eternity. They became wanderers, forever blocked from that heaven that was their only possible home.
