Eternal Jesus Day 157
People carry around the memories of their past in their minds like Russian Dolls with layer upon layer of skirts and petticoats. On the outside we may be 35, 55 or 75 years old but the baby still resides within. We are never free, nor far from our memories. The headship of Jesus is the one unchanging element in the heavenly Body. Jesus past, present and future has been, is and will be in control of all God's faithful people and will link together as one mind the past and present not just of our own personal existence but that of every other member of the Mystical Body. His huge collective memory binds as one all God's people in the Body of Christ.
The present, past and future tenses stress both the eternal nature of Jesus and his vital place in history. The Revelation of John calls Jesus "him who is, and who was, and who is to come."1 This reminds us also that "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."2
1Revelation 1.4. 2Hebrews 13.8.
