One of my favorite accounts of encounters with Jesus Christ is the two men walking toward Emmaus, recorded in Luke 24.
As these two were walking home(?) from Jerusalem, Jesus joins himself to them without identifying himself. They were discussing all the recent events in Jerusalem – the feast, the arrest & crucifixion, the resurrection. Jesus asks questions ans begins to give answers.
Having been invited to stay and dine with them, Jesus agreed. As they were eating, He was revealed to them as the Son of God and, then, disappeared. Their response was “weren’t our hearts ablaze within us while He was talking with us…”
Question: When was the last time your heart was ablaze?
