The Center of Being
I know that I have to move from speaking about Jesus to letting him speak within me, from thinking about Jesus to letting him think within me, from acting for and with Jesus to letting him act through me. I know the only way for me to see the world is to see it through his eyes. Everything has to become very simple, very unified, very focused. It is no longer a question of being up to date or well-informed. At this moment in history – my own as well as that of the world – I have to go to the very center of being: the center where time touches eternity, where earth and heaven meet, where God’s Word becomes human flesh, where death and immortality embrace. There is really no longer a question of options. With an unmistakable clarity, I have heard a voice saying, “Give me everything, and I will give you everything.”
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
- Galatians 2: 20
Reflection Question: How does the invitation to see the world through Jesus’ eyes challenge my habits, opinions, or priorities?
