When Jesus says, “Sky and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away,” he shows us a direct way to eternal life. The words of Jesus have the power to transform our hearts and minds and lead us into the Kingdom of God. “The words I have spoken to you,” Jesus says, “are spirit and they are life.”<\/p>\n

Through meditation we can let the words of Jesus descend from our minds into our hearts and create there a dwelling place for the Spirit. Whatever we do and wherever we go, let us stay close to the words of Jesus. They are words of eternal life.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
