The Consecrated

By Armand Bamouni

"The consecrated, a narrative of God for the world" is a meditation on the ultimate meaning of religious consecration in the Catholic Church. There we discover that the intimate being of the consecrated person constitutes at the same time his vocation: he is set apart to preach God to the world through his entire life, to reveal the mystery, that is, the being, the holiness and the greatness of God in the world. An absolutely finite being which must reveal the absolutely Infinite. A mission by far impossible if it had to be carried out exclusively by the man and woman of God. This is where we have a glimpse of the mystery of vocation: "Before I formed you in your mother's womb, I knew you, and before you came out of her womb, I consecrated you, I established you as a prophet to the nations. (...). Do not say: I am a child. For you will go to everyone to whom I send you, and you will say whatever I command you" (Jr 1:5.7). It is therefore God the sovereign initiator of the call and it is He Himself who ensures that the consecrated person has the necessary means to accomplish the task He deigns to entrust to him.
