“Who do you say I am?” Mark 8:29
At our Morning Apart on Saturday, we came face to face with Jesus. During the guided Lectio, we visualized our own sacred space; whether it be the ocean, the mountains, or our backyard and we settled in for an encounter.
Jesus quietly sat by our side and whispered:
“Who do you say I am?”
But He didn’t stop there, Jesus walked right in front of us and held out his hands to ours. He looked directly into our eyes and said:
“Who do you say I am?”
Then the most amazing thing happened, Jesus kissed our cheek and started walking away. With words unspoken, He bid us to follow him.
Our responses were as unique as each individual sitting in the circle, yet as similar as a community seeking the presence of Christ in their lives.
Can you fathom it? Jesus asking:
“Who do YOU say I am?”
How would you answer?
