The Way, the Truth, the Life

1 May 2012

Jesus said: I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
Without the Way, there is no going.
Without the Truth, there is no knowing.
Without the Life, there is no living.

I am the Way which you ought to follow,
The Truth which you ought to believe,
The Life which you to hope for.

I am the Way that is the straightest,
The Truth that is the highest,
The Life that is the truest.

If you remain in my way,
You shall know the Truth,
And the Truth shall set you free,
And you shall have eternal life.

— Thomas a Kempis

Where Is God When I Sin?

22 April 2012

“Where is God when I sin?” I asked a spiritual director. “Suffering with you on the Cross,” he said. And I began to understand Christianity.

Birds Singing

10 April 2012

I wonder if Mary Magdalen heard the birds singing on her way to the tomb early Easter Sunday morning?

Did she hear them singing afterwards on her way back?

My Name is Barabbas

1 April 2012

The name Barabbas means “son of the father” (bar-abba). Before Pilate and the crowd, there were two sons of the father, one innocent, one guilty. They chose one to free, one to condemn.

Which son of the father was Adam, and the rest of us, suppose to be like?

Two sons of the father, that makes them brothers, family. The Father did not condemn either son. We did. And the elder Son came to save the younger son.
