Encounters
Those who come to put their trust in Jesus can often look back on a series of “encounters” with him – through the words of scripture, through the convincing testimony of others or through their exemplary actions, through our own experiences of prayer, through the worship of the Church and its sacraments, through sacred music or art or poetry, through the beauty of the natural world, or simply by considering the mystery of life. There are a host of ways in which we may encounter him daily, and it is through these that we gradually come to believe him and know him and love him.
