Jesus replied: "I am the way, truth, life. Person can not go to the Father except through me. "Life is a road, a road. Oh, it is not always right nor asphalted. Often, the existence resembles a small winding path zigzagging between trees in dense forest and thick. Be careful where you walk for fear of twisting the ankle or falling.
Life is full of crossroads, a crossroads. It often decide that they will follow and get involved, trying not to regret his choice. Taking such a path is also waive another. There are rarely any signs that we avoid getting lost in the maze of our existence.
Life is a path that one travels to many. First is the One who opened it, God himself who goes before us. Him, He knows where the road leads. There is also Jesus who walks with us. It is itself the path to the Father. Any alternative, any other road leads to a deadlock. Alone will lead us to God the Father. There are also our brothers, our sisters, all these men and women who walk in the same direction. How
find God? Search the Son, the image of the Father. Jesus is God incarnate in man. Jesus is the divine power reduced to human weakness. Go to the encounter with Christ is to walk toward God, who also comes to meet us. This is not a way!
A path, it is discovered that exploring. Just as the knowledge we bring to Jesus. He did not disclose fully to the first meeting. And I doubt that a lifetime, human scale, sufficient to fully know Jesus. Look at the disciples who rubbed, and yet had so much trouble understanding it.
One way this can be visited at their own pace. Sometimes you catch his breath, stopping to admire the scenery or slow its pace. One thing is sure, be on the way, is to be in motion. This is not stand still and wait until the road runs beneath our feet.
That our life is a road we travel with confidence and joy, putting our feet into those left to us by God. Walk in the certainty that Jesus is the path that leads to real life when God takes first place.
