"Though you turn away"



I have always loved Third Day. Well, at least since I heard of them several years ago. Anyway, this video just brings home the FACT, which is constitutive of reality, of God's love, expressed for us in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It also shows that Jesus' love knows no bounds, borders, or categories. If we experience for one fleeting second how much Jesus Christ loves us, for a merely a flash, we are forever changed, transformed, converted. "Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is" (1 Jn 3,2). A prayer for the beginning of this Dies Domini.
