Life in Communion
Life, as many of us know, can actually become more difficult – more painful – when we choose to follow Jesus. Yet at the same time we gain a certain strength because we no longer live our life or our agony alone. We no longer live our struggle in isolation. We no longer live our pains as if nobody cares. Indeed, following Jesus means walking in his path, taking steps behind the One who shows us the way in our dark, broken, painful world.
Following Jesus means to live our life in companionship with the One who understands us fully…. Following Jesus means a life in communion, with a guide.
Has not the one God made you? You belong to him in body and spirit.
- Malachi 2: 15
Reflection Question: How will you take the remembrance of Jesus’ companionship into your day?
