The ROAD of TRUTH by Meryl Viola Bravo, M.A.


THE ROAD OF TRUTH
by Meryl Viola Bravo, M.A.

“On September 27, 1997, the Pope spoke to thousands of young Italians at a National Eucharistic Congress in Bologna.  After a warm-up by singer Bob Dylan, John Paul picked up the theme of the folk artist’s most famous song, telling the young people that what was “blowing in the wind: was the Holy Spirit:  “you asked me,” he said, “How many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man?  I answer you:  one!  There is only one road for man and it is Christ, who said, ‘I am the way.’  He is the road of truth, the way of life.”  Witness to Hope by George Weigel

The road towards Christ leads only to the Cross; O Gift of Christ embraced with the love of all Mankind there we find the Ultimate Love of all Love!  One Road suffices towards that which leads to Eternity with You, O Redeemer of All Mankind.  Inspired by the gift of the Holy Spirit there blows in the wind the will towards Salvation.  We, who are Christ’s, belong to this wind that blows where it wills and stills the very heart of Man towards the Road of Truth and the Way of Life.  Reborn in the Spirit of Christ, Man enters once again into the womb of Rebirth recreated anew by the purification and sanctification of the Power of the Holy Spirit living in Man and Redeemed by Christ.  There in the midst of every soul is the capacity to be reborn in the Spirit; a soul fully disposed of the graces necessary for a Total Conversion towards Christ, the Way, the Truth and the Life!  The ONE road towards salvation is to be ready and steady in inviting what is to come by the inspiration of the Power of the Holy Spirit alive and active in the disposition of every heart who responds with the Love of Christ! Yes, there is ONE road and ONE Lord of all Creation, ONE God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  The ONE who will set Man’s hearts free from what can detract and dispose one towards a deeper encounter with Him who is LOVE!  O Supreme Love, encountered and revealed to Man as the Way!  The Way towards Ultimate Freedom!  The Way that sets mans’ hearts abound with the Truth of who he is in the sight of his Creator!  The Way that leads to Life Everlasting!

Veni, Sanctu Spiritu!  Come, Holy Spirit!  Purify and sanctify the souls of those who long for You and desire to do Your Most Holy and Divine Will!  Unite us ever closer to the Eternal Father, through the Only Begotten Son of God, Christ my Redeemer and Savior!  May I follow the ONE road that brings me ever united to Christ.  Courage!  Fortitude!  O Gifts of the Holy Spirit, bring me anew a hundredfold of the graces necessary to respond to Him whom my heart loves!  Transform me into His very image so that all that is in me reflects ONLY Him who is Love itself!  Unless a Man be reborn again he may not enter the Kingdom of Heaven; Come, Holy Spirit!  Bring forth a NEW Birth in our Nation!  Reborn in the Spirit of Christ!  Transform the hearts of those who have a strayed towards the ONE ROAD of Truth in Christ, the Redeemer and Savior of all mankind!  ONE Road must be traveled and that is the Way of Christ, the Way of the Cross!  Purify my heart towards You, O Cross of Christ that I may ever grow in union with You, O Divine Deity!  Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Three Divine Persons, One God!  May they be ONE as You are ONE, Most Holy Trinity!  I Believe, I Adore and I Love You in the Most Holy and Divine Sacrament!  O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions but in your mercy hear and answer me.  Amen.
