Encountering Christ...

 ...at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy: 
I will sing and make music to the LORD.
...Your face, LORD, will I seek. - Psalm 27:6b, 8b

 
"Christianity is not a new philosophy or a new form of morality. 
We are only Christians if we encounter Christ... 
We can encounter Christ in reading Holy Scripture
in prayer and in the liturgical life of the Church - 
touch Christ's heart and feel that Christ touches ours. 
And it is only in this personal relationship with Christ,
in this meeting with the Risen One
that we are truly Christian." 
 
Pope Benedict XVI
Reflections on the conversion of St Paul
