When Jesus says: "Sky and earth will pass away, but my words will 
never pass away" (Luke 21:33), 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" (John 6:63).
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.
