Synopsis
It is we who journey away from Christ. And then ask in our misery, “Why have you treated us so? Why won’t you be a savior who arranges life the way I want it?” Jesus takes no delight in our anxiety. He does not sneer at the distress we feel when we’ve lost sight of him. He grieves all the tragedies that flow from the broken communion between God and humanity. He wants us to be reconnected. But he won’t be co-opted. He won’t fix the presenting problem so we can get back to life on our terms. Over and over he reminds us, “Do you not know that I must be in my Father’s house, about my Father’s business? That’s where you’ll always find me. That’s where life begins. That’s where love flows. That’s where reconciliation occurs. The meeting place between God and man, the healing place. I’m always there. Come back to me!”
