It is an act of freedom of a son of God. The gesture of resigning means in large part that the world and the Church need to turn to God, but the method of the renewal is also contained in His Holiness' resignation; it is itself an act of turning to God. That is why the Pope is filled with supernatural joy, it is God's decision coming from the face of Christ.
To elaborate on the Magisterium of the Catholic Church is our mission on Plinthos (Gk. "brick"); and to do so anonymously, so that, like any brick in the wall, we might do our little part in the strength of the structure of humanity almost unnoticed.
