00:00In our lives we establish many communication relationships.
00:30All of them are filled with affection, with our dad, with our mom, with our siblings, our husband, with our wife, among our friends, but there is one very important relationship, that of the teacher with his disciples.
00:47The latter has been harmed because many teachers have reduced their work to communicating knowledge, forgetting a very important task.
01:02The teacher educates with words, but also with example.
01:09In all the passages of the Gospel we find Jesus as the Teacher, as the Rabbi.
01:19He is the one who speaks, he is the one who sets an example, he is the one who invites others to follow.
01:25And whenever he refers to his disciples, he will speak to them with affection, he will motivate them to keep going.
01:35But he does not only do it with the twelve, he does it with the multitude of disciples, many of them also women.
01:44In the Gospel of John, there is a beautiful expression in which Mary Magdalene refers to Jesus as her Master.
01:56This is what the Gospel of Saint John says.
01:59Jesus said to her, Mary, and she turned and said to him in Hebrew, Rabbi, which means Teacher.
02:15In this passage, we understand very well what communication between a teacher and his disciple is like.
02:23It is an interpersonal relationship; Jesus speaks to her by name, Mary, and she then discovers that Jesus is the Master, is my Master.
02:37In life, you need to know how to listen, how to learn, but above all, to imitate, to follow in others' footsteps.
02:48Jesus called his disciples, Jesus calls us.
02:53We must listen to it, we must learn from life, and we must also follow it.
03:00We must mark our footprints with their footprints, and in this way our life will have meaning.
03:07He said, it is enough for each disciple to be like his Master.
03:13We all want to be disciples of Jesus.
03:15The only condition is to listen to it attentively, to want it, to love it.
03:23Because you can't learn where there is no love.
03:26When a child does not love their parents, they do not learn the lesson.
03:31When there is no affection between siblings, there is no learning.
03:36Likewise, between the disciple and the Master, that single condition is required: to love each other.
03:44And Christ, loved to the extreme, has loved those who are his disciples.
03:51He knows each one by name, and gives each one what they need.
03:56In our Christian life, may we all learn to know, love, and follow Christ, for He is the only Teacher.
04:08He is the Rabbi, He is the Master with a capital M.
04:12Loved to the extreme by God.
04:19Loved to the extreme by God.
04:23Loved to the extreme by God.
04:25Thank you.
