      Message From the Author

      If you could have a private conversation with Jesus Christ and ask him anything you wanted, what would ask him?

      What am I doing here? What does God want from me?

      We stumble along, fumbling for answers to some of the most difficult questions in this ambiguity of the human condition that we refer to as life, and fail to realize that everything happens for a reason. God has a plan for you; he has a plan me. There’s a plan for all of us.

      I am a radical follower of Christ, with whom I have a deep and intimate connection. In him I will store all of my faith for the remainder of my days.

It was the breakfast of champions! As usual, I was running late, and it certainly didn’t help my cause any when I accidentally smeared cream cheese all over my new silk tie.

      This is how my day is going to start? I said to myself after letting out a long drawn sigh. I rushed quickly to the kitchen sink; lowering my tie into the basin, I tried desperately to wash it out before the stain became permanent.

      Just as I was vigorously cleaning my tie, and cursing a bit under my breath, it happened… Jesus Christ walked into my
