I am always fascinated that God's revelation concerning Himself is full of mystery and requires a deeper understanding that simplified human formulations regarding His Being and Nature will never suffice except that in His Mercy, He tolerates and forgives even the misconceptions about His Self. But as a Creator of Truth, He always cares about our knowing Him intimately so much like a friend knowing another, all considerations aside. Sometimes, our conception of God is very much like the concepts we form with fellow bloggers, but it is the Care and Love that raises this conception above the face-to-face comraderie of acquaintances that it seems that we have known each other all along and will behold each other in full glory of the truth in the times to come.

Hence, after so many millenia, when we read what Jesus said about Himself, albeit so confined in a few words, it is God's intimation of who He really Is. Only a Creator can know His own creature deeper any fellow creature. So when it comes to salvation, who saves the creature from being lost in the chaos? Jesus, God became Man to love Man in his very shoes. Simplistic, not quite, but this declaration is my way of worship and gratitude that as Josh Groban sang, "He raised me up..."

His words, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life" reveals so much on who He really is. How else can we find our way as creatures returning to the great Flame of God if Jesus would not guide us as the Way and the Truth? After death, who will sustain our life if not Life Himself?

"For God so loved the World that He gave up His Only Beloved Son, that whoever so believes in Him shall not perish, but shall have Eternal Life". This is such a beautiful verse from John, that it seems, ironic as it sounds, the giving away of a part of ourselves is that which will keep us all together. How lonely are we when despite being in the company of people, we can be so isolated? Neither will God allow that, so He went from beyond Himself, in such a way that I can scarcely fathom, so that we can all be together.

I guess what really matters is that not that I would have eternal life with God, with Jesus, but that which you, me, us are with Jesus, and He will do the rest.

Mommy knows best, they say, but Jesus knows us better.
