In today’s edition from Luke 24 we hear about two disciples on a walk from Jerusalem to a village 7 miles away called Emmaus. While it seems like an innocent walking excursion, there is so much going on. We gain insight into the early days of the Church. Two of his disciples are discussing what had happen in Jerusalem just a few days ago. The situation suddenly became very interesting when they were joined by what appeared to be a very uninformed stranger. The stranger admits his lack of knowledge and the two travellers take it upon themselves to “educate” the stranger about Jesus and his crucifixiion.
I would like to focus on the statement that the disciples recognize that their hearts burned within them. Their intuition recognized Jesus for who he is. This statement poetically reminds us that while it is important to have knowledge of Scripture and even Theology, we also need to pay attention to what is going on in our hearts to discern the will of God and grow in our spirituality.
