This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 11, 2008:
I love this question. Oh, it is so easy to answer yet it was so hard to see at the time. My greatest teacher has been Jesus. Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit or Great Spirit who is a great teacher. The Holy Spirit is the kind of teacher that when you asked a question it answered in a question. How aggravating yet how invegorating!
Jesus, on the other hand has lead by example. His ulitmate sacirface, shedding his own blood, for human kind to be healed, by those painful and deep stripes of humbliness. How that alone has carried me through my own trails in this life's journey. The thing is he did not just take our sins, He sent them to Hell, when He, himself, departed up to his ceremony of priesthood. How wonderful of an honor to have graduated to sainthood in one humbling sacurfice.
There are arguements that there was no Jesus, even if it was someone of another believe system that had made that commitment for us all, I can say,"Thank You, for our freedom".
I have learned to remember, on a daily basis, that someone before me has made such a sacurfice that getting up to experience and share the joy of the day is an honor in its self. May We all be blessed by the Saints that have been before us! Thank you and bless you, all Great teachers!
