The reflections in this book are based on seven key questions that Jesus asked in the course of his public life and continues to ask us now. The chapters are designed to be reflective and meditative, their purpose to nourish one's spiritual life and enhance one's relationship with the Lord: Who do you say that I am? Whom are you looking for? Do you want to be made well? Do you love me? Was it not necessary? Do you know what I have done to you? Could you not stay awake with me for one hour? The questions, like their answers, are always personal and pastoral, coming as they do from the heart. Our responses, to be authentic, must reflect the truth of our experience if we are to grow in the image and likeness of God who created us. |
