The Visiting God

This morning during the Morning prayer and Mass, this phrase 'God has visited his people' repeated itself. I said to myself, surely given the present state of affairs, God will only be able to 'visit' and not 'stay' long here on earth. But even in this 'visiting' there is a great sense. Perhaps God wants not to interfere too much with the matters which otherwise we mortals manage - or so we claim! Moreover, it is also good that we begin to take responsibility of what we are up to day in and day out. Like the small boy when told that he's going to have a baby brother saying, 'Thank God! After all there is only very little you can blame on the dog.' So the conclusion: let God and let us, lest we negate each other!
