When we celebrate the feast in our own day, what path we are to take? As we draw near to this feast, who is to be our guide? Beloved, it must be none other that the one whom you will address with me as our Lord Jesus Christ. He says: I am the way. As blessed John tells us: it is Christ who takes away the sin of the world. It is he who purifies our souls, as the prophet Jeremiah says: Stand upon the ways; look and see which is the good path, and you will find in it the way of amendment for your souls.
