ícone Lord and Master
 

Unmatched. Lord of the Stars. Lord of the Spirits.

His journey began on Earth in a straw cradle improvised by His father.

He made Himself weak in a child's body like all His brothers on Earth.

Demonstrating the value of love He entrusted Himself to the custody of a woman, His mother.

He nestled in His mother's bosom, was fed and received affection.

Wise among all the wise men, He followed the customs of Israel, learned the craft of carpentry from His father, shaping the wood with His blessed hands.

Being aware of the Law, which He had come to teach, He submitted Himself to the local synagogue attendance, like all boys of His age.

More than once He presented questions of high level of philosophy and science, as a demonstration of how much He knew, and pointing out how much more had to be learned and that men were not the keeper of wisdom.

He was always a Master, carrying pedagogical understanding like no one else and knowing the souls of His sheep. He subtly planted seeds here and there long before starting his Messiahship.

When it was time, He left His simple home of Nazareth, where He grew up, looked at the fields and hills, and sought the world's roadways.

Since then, the driver of a huge flock of Spirits, He would not have a stone to lay His head on.

Where He passed by, He made friends, teaching that man was made to live in society. And live well with everyone.

He gained friends among the poor, the rich, the sick, those who lavished health, and the young and old.

He did not forget to seek the lost sheep in strange lands, distributing His blessings in the name of love He represented.

He healed the blind saying that one must have eyes to see.

He freed ears from silence saying that one had to have ears to hear.

For every gesture, there was an education. Nothing was wasted.

He gave movements back to the handicapped, the lucidity to the disturbed. And the message to the blessed ones was to do their best to achieve happiness from then on.

He was not saddened by living among men. The melancholy note that He sung was only for the hardness of hearts, as He dictated that each man would be given according to his works, anticipating the pain of those who sowed thorns in their journeys.

His mission began with a blessing for the union of two beings forming a new family.

As a guest at the banquets of the world, He served Himself with opportunities to spread His light to all guests.

He surrendered Himself when His time came to martyrdom, like a lamb to sacrifice.

Just like His cradle, His grave for the deposit of His body was improvised by a friend won for His Kingdom.

Gloriously introducing Himself to His disciples after death, as proof of Immortality, He appeared for the last time and departed on a day of light in the same Galilee where He sang the most beautiful song that mankind had ever heard.

And He waits for us in His Kingdom of blessings, loving us still and always.

Jesus, Lord and Master. The Way, the Truth and the Life.

Let us follow Him.
