A ʻAʻole i kani ka leo mai ka lani .... ʻaʻole ia o ka uila, ka ōlaʻi, a me ka hihiʻo o ka lani e wehe ana me kahi hōʻike e aloha ana ke Akua i ke kanaka. Akā, ua iho mai ke Akua i loko o ka ʻōpū o kahi wahine, a ua hele a aloha ke aloha iā ia iho. Ua lilo ke aloha i kino. Lilo ka ʻōlelo a ke Akua i ke ola, ka hanu ʻana, ka ʻike ʻia.
E NANA ANA ALOHA
ʻO kēia paha ka pilikia o ko mākou au. ʻAʻole ka nele o kahi leka. ʻAʻole lani! Ma nā wahi a pau e huli ai, hiki i kekahi ke loaʻa ka "memo" o ka nūhou maikaʻi. Kelepona kīwī, lekiō, ka pūnaewele ... ke kani nei ka leka e like me ka pū. Akā ʻo ka mea e nalowale nei ka hōʻike pinepine o ia leka: o nā ʻuhane i hālāwai me ke aloha iā ia iho, a laila lilo i moku o kēlā aloha. Ma hea mākou e loaʻa ai i kēia leka? i hoʻokalakupua i kēia lā?
Inā ʻike ʻia ka hoʻomana Kalikiano ma ke ʻano he hōʻiliʻili wale o nā kānāwai a me nā kapu, nā ʻano koi a me nā hoʻokō ʻana i mea e hiki ai i ka lani, no laila, ʻaʻohe mea e pīhoihoi ai ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana i ka noʻonoʻo o kēia au. Hoʻokomo ʻia ka poʻe i ke aloha, ʻaʻole i kāna aʻo ʻana; ʻo ia hoʻi, kauō ʻia lākou i ka alo o ke aloha. Ma hea e loaʻa ai i ka poʻe i kēia lā? No ka mea, he nānā nō kā lākou. ʻAe, ke kāhea nei lākou i kā lākou pūnaewele pūnaewele, pūnaewele pūnaewele, a me nā mīkini leka uila, e nānā ana e ʻike ʻia, hoʻomanaʻo ʻia, a aloha ʻia lākou. Hiki i ke kuko no ke aloha ke hoʻokō piha ʻia ma o ka pakuhi wikiō? ʻAʻole. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole loa i loaʻa nā ala o ka kamaʻilio ākea ākea, akā ʻaʻole i hele mehameha ke kāne o kēia manawa. Ke ʻimi nei ʻo ia i ke aloha a ʻoi aku ka pinepine i ka loaʻa ʻole.
ʻIke anei mākou Karistiano i kēia? A i ʻole hana nui paha mākou i ka lawe ʻana i nā moʻolelo maikaʻi ma o kā mākou leka uila? Kūleʻa nui paha mākou i ka heluhelu ʻana i nā poʻo nūhou e ʻike ai i ka kokoke o ka honua e hāʻule ana mai ka pali, a i ʻole ke holo nei mākou i kona lihi e lilo i alo o ke aloha i ka poʻe i mākaukau e lele iā ia? Hoʻololi ʻia mākou me nā hōʻailona o nā manawa, me mākou iho, a i ʻole ke lilo nei mākou i hōʻailona o nā manawa-ka hōʻailona a me ka sakrameta a ke Aloha?
ALOHA INCARNATE
He aloha ke Akua, a ua lilo ke aloha i kino. Ua noho a noho ʻo ia i waena o mākou, akā ʻo ka mea nui, ua lawelawe ʻo ia a hāʻawi i kona ola loa. He mea kupaianaha ke ʻano o kēia, a hāpai pū me ia a ala no kela a me keia Kristiano bapetizoia. Ke Ala o ke Aloha.
No laila, inā wau, ka haku a me ke kumu, i holoi i ko ʻoukou mau wāwae, pono ʻoukou e holoi kekahi i nā wāwae o kekahi. Ua hāʻawi wau iā ʻoe i kahi hoʻohālikelike e ukali ai, e like me kaʻu i hana aku ai iā ʻoe, ʻo ia pū kekahi e hana ai. (Ioane 13: 14-15)
ʻAʻole i hōʻike ʻia ko ke Akua aloha i loko o kahi ʻōlelo pilikino ʻole; ʻaʻole i pau me ka ʻĀnela Gabriel. Ua lilo ia i leka i ʻike ʻia i hiki i kekahi ke "ʻono a ʻike." ʻAʻole lawa ia no mākou e kamaʻilio e pili ana i ka ʻeuanelio; pono ko mākou ʻohana a me nā hoa aloha ike ia iā mākou. Pono lākou e ʻike i ke alo o ke aloha, a i ʻole, kā mākou "haʻi haʻi ʻōlelo," kā mākou pule haipule ikaika, nā ʻūlapa ʻōlelo, nā ʻōlelo paipala, a pēlā aku. lilo i mea ʻole, a lawelawe paha e hōʻemi a hōʻino hoʻi i ka mea a mākou e haʻi aku ai.
He mau lālā ʻoe o ke kino o Kristo, a makemake ʻo Iesū e ola i kona ola kupua ma ou lā. Pehea? Ke ʻole ʻo ia, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Iesū, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i kekahi mea. A no laila pono ʻoe i kēlā me kēia lā e hāpai i kou keʻa, hōʻole iā ʻoe iho, a hāhai iā ia. E hāhai iā ia i kēlā me kēia lā i Golgota, i kekahi manawa i kēlā me kēia manawa, e waiho ana i kou makemake, aloha ponoʻī — ka "I" nui - ma luna o ke keʻa. Lawe iā ia i ka make i ala aʻe kahi Aloha hou i loko ou. ʻAʻole kēia kahi hoʻopau i kou ʻano e lilo ai ʻoe i zombie divinised. He kenosis, kahi waiho ʻana o nā mea āpau ʻaʻole na ke Akua ka ʻoiaʻiʻo hoʻomeamea a kekeke ʻo wai ʻoe he keikikāne a kaikamahine paha i hana ʻia i ke ʻano o ke Akua. Ma o ka mana o ka ʻUhane Hemolele, makemake ke Akua e hoʻāla iā ʻoe i kahi ola hou, kahi hana hou, kahi o ka mea maoli i hana ʻia ma ke ʻano o ke Akua, lilo i mea maoli. ʻAʻole wale kahi mea ʻuhane, mystical maoli, akā he mea ola, hanu, ʻike ʻia i ʻike ʻia - hoʻokahi me ka maka hiki i ka honua ke ʻike. I kēia ʻano, ʻo ʻoe a me aʻu e lilo i hoʻololi iā Christus, "ʻO Kristo hou aʻe." Lilo mākou iā ia i ka maka a ka poʻe ʻē aʻe e makewai nei. A ke loaʻa lākou iā ia i loko o mākou, hiki iā mākou ke kuhikuhi i ke kumu o wai ola.

I kou hui ʻana me ka ʻohana a me nā hoaaloha ma luna o kēia mau lā ʻahaʻaina hope loa o ka Kalikimaka Octave, e ʻike lākou i kou aloha ma mua o ka lohe ʻana. E ʻike lākou i kāu lawelawe, i kou ahonui, i kāu palapala ʻana; e lohe ʻole lākou i kāu mau ʻōlelo o ke kala ʻana akā ʻike ʻia ia i kāu ʻano, kou helehelena, a me kou hoihoi maoli iā lākou. Hoʻolohe, mai ʻōlelo wale. E ʻike i ka poʻe ʻē aʻe i kou makemake e hoʻokau iā lākou i mua, i ko lākou makemake, i kā lākou makemake, ʻoiai ke kūʻē i kāu. E ʻike ka make ʻana o kou aloha ponoʻī i nā mea āpau, ʻaʻole i ka nui o kāu mea e ʻōlelo ai, akā i ka mea āu e hana nei.
A laila e lilo kāu mau huaʻōlelo i leo o ke aloha, ma mua o ka pū o ka ego. A laila e hoʻomaka ʻoe e hoʻōla i ka mehameha weliweli i kou kaikaina ke hoʻomaka ʻo ia e hoʻolohe i kēlā leo.
Hoʻokomo ke aloha, e like me Kristo i lilo ai i kino kanaka. Hāʻawi ke aloha i kahi ʻili. Lilo i ka maka o Kristo.
E oʻu mau hoahānau, ua aloha ʻo Christ i ke alapiʻi e hiki ai i nā Kristiano a pau ke piʻi i ka lani. E paʻa iā ia, no laila, me ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, e hāʻawi kekahi i kekahi hōʻike kūpono o ia. —St. ʻO Fulgentius o Ruspe, Liturgy of the Hours Vol. 1, p.1256
