come back , Ô Sulamite , an invitation to
conversion and meeting with the divine. This cry of the heart reminds us of the importance of
communion with God and others. As it is said in
hymn of the Songs 2:10 , "get up, my beloved, and come", and in
Luke 15:20 , the return of the prodigal son testifies to the unconditional love of the father. May this quest for rapprochement inspire us to always seek its presence.
