Minute Meditations

I believe that Jesus is the great reconciler. Picture two lines, one going vertically, the other going horizontally: That’s the cross.

Jesus’ teaching is summarized in one line: “The time is fulfilled, and the Reign of God is close at hand. Repent, and believe the Gospel” (Mark 1:15)

Under the true sacred, we are at the mercy of One Who Is Mercy.

Without a forgiveness great enough to embrace even the obscure side of things, we are burdened (and I do mean burdened) with our own need to explain and to judge everything.

On the level of experience, the true sacred always reveals that: God is One and for all.

We seem to know God only by relating to God, almost as if God refuses to be known apart from love. It is all about relationship.
