Longing For Jesus

A two-way street:  we long for Jesus, he longs for us.  When he walked this earth, he could not escape the crowds who sought him constantly, even by walking on water across the Sea of Galilee.Our longing to "belong", to fit in, to be sure of ourselves, could be a conscious or unconscious longing for what truly satisfies and gives meaning to our lives: a relationship with Jesus.  When all cover-ups are stripped away, this basic search remains. In the calmness of prayer we can find it, link into it and also discover that Jesus is longing to give us what truly satisfies:  himself. Through constant grow in love for Jesus and all those whose lives we touch, we can come to dwell in holiness in the protection of his loving arms wrapped around us, where there is no fear or anxiety, but only the peace we cannot find elsewhere.
