Drawn from his retreat discussions given to Pope Benedict and his affiliates at the papal home, Cardinal Arinze offers inspiring spiritual exercises concentrating on the meaning of the priestly life. "The red thread which will run through each one of these meditations," writes Cardinal Arinze, "is the image of the priest who, called by Jesus, fulfills him, comes after him and looks for each day for being an improved disciple." But the Cardinal refers to "priests", he insists that much of what he says pertains to anyone in ordained ministry - deacons, priests and bishops. Actually, even lay down people and the religious can greatly benefit from prayerfully hearing his reflections on being truly a disciple of god, the father. "For every human being, for every Christian, and even more for every priest, Jesus Christ offers meaning to life", writes Cardinal Arinze. "He gives a sense of unity to all or any the things where we are engaged. Jesus indicates the right course for our life because he's the way, the truth and the life span (cf Jn 14:6). In these meditations we will have in front of us the priest who fulfills Jesus and comes after him."
