To have a master
It means that there is
one who knows me better than I know myself,
one who is closer than a friend,
one who understands the remotest abyss of my heart and satisfies it,
one who has brings me into the secure sense and
one who solves every confusion and problem of my mind.
To have a master is this and nothing less
Our Lord never enforces obedience;
In the Bible obedience is based on the relationship of equals, that of a son with his father. Our Lord was not God's servant, He was His Son.
John 13 : 13
You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord', and rightly so, for that is what I am.
