“I am the Life.” What does Jesus mean. He, as God, is life itself, as the I Am, who is, who was and who will be. He is the very source of all life, as Creator. “In him we live and move and have our being.” Through creation, Jesus gives us physical life, and sustains us in existence. Through his death and resurrection, he has given us a share in his own eternal life. On our part how are we taking care of the gift of human life? How are we responding to the shared gift of his Divine Life? Sin effects our physical life, but more especially our spiritual life. For this is God’s desire for us. “He has predestined us to adoption as sons (and daughters) through Jesus Christ, in himself, according to the purpose of his will, for the praise of the glory of his grace, with which he has gifted us in his beloved Son.” (Ephesians 1:5-6) Do we desire the same?
