Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel said that he knew Jesus. And that. you have to know Jesus. Many people believe in Jesus. But, belief in Him leads to knowing Him. This is a hard teaching. I've always been a those who believe not having seen kind of Christian. Never having had a road to Damascus experience or a supernatural event in my faith journey, what does this mean? I know that I love Jesus; I can feel it when it thing on Him, when I'm in the presence of God, and when I contemplate the greatest act of love. Maybe I need to follow St. Teresa of Avila's example and spend more time in the prayer of silence. Maybe I need to spend more time in contemplative prayer. Maybe I need to seek to be in the presence of Jesus more.
