How close to do you feel to Jesus today? Does he seem near? Or does he seem distant? If you are like me, that feeling changes from day to day.
The truth is that Jesus is always near – he, through his spirit, is with us always.
But the reality of our existence is that we don’t always feel it. When that happens, I have found that it is not Jesus who has moved but me.
I read this today from Thomas Merton:
The deepest level of communication is not communication, but communion. It is wordless. It is beyond words, and it is beyond speech . . .
That is what I want. That is the kind of relationship with Jesus for which I long.
Lord Jesus – draw me close today! So close that words cannot express – so close that words are not needed!
Amen
