John 8, 21-30:
“Who are you?”
The Jews are bewildered before the person of Jesus.
And in this bewilderment, they ask Jesus directly who he is.
Jesus also answers directly: “When you raise up the Son of Man, you will know that I am he”.
Jesus tells them clearly that they will know who he is at the moment of his death on the cross.
Jesus Christ can only be understood from the cross.
It is on the cross that we understand that Jesus is total obedience to the Father and that he is self-giving and infinite love for each one of us.
Try to pray for a while today in front of a crucifix and ask Jesus the question “who are you”.
Try to go even further. Ask him also the question: “Jesus, who are you for me?
Answer it without fear and act accordingly.
Good day to you.
