JESUS CHRIST, ICON OF THE INVISIBLE GOD; ST. GASPAR BERTONI, MODEL OF HOLY ABANDONMENT

Jesus Christ: Icon of the Invisible God - St. Gaspar Bertoni: Model of Holy Abandonment - Rev. Joseph Henchey, CSS

The use of the term model  is familiar to artists,  builders, and all trying to bring about something new and original.  Fr. Bertoni’s ideal was Jesus Christ – that we  should all make a portrait of Him in our own lives – that as it was said by Christ: whoever sees Me, sees the Father!  St. Gaspar’s idea that w should so imitate Christ that we might serve as a representation of Him.   It is like translating the word of God into our own lives, by the way we live.
