But suddenly I felt
   His arms around me
   At last He had come
   The Son of Man spoke to me:
   "You..." the voice came, "beloved one"
   He raised me up
   And walked before me
   And I followed his footsteps
   With a sound of deliverance
   A small and hidden gate
   Was opened for me
   
   "Follow me", he said
   And invited me
   Into the landscape
   From where I first came
   We sat down by a fire
   And while his eyes penetrated me
   He started to show me
   The purpose of all my pain
   
   "You see", He declared
   "I myself once did this for you"
   "For me", I replied. "Why?"
   
   He continued:
   "I once walked this path of pain
   But I went much deeper
   Than you ever may do
   My love for you knew no end
   And therefore I did
   I had to sacrifice my life that time
   And I did it
   Because of the never fading love I have for you
   But, though your pain was terrible
   And I saw no end to your sufferings
   I have walked the whole path with you
   You have not taken one single step
   Without me seeing it
   And I have heard every one of your words
   I heard when you cried for help
   When you asked the Father to see your pain
   Behold the path now lying behind you"
   
   I turned and watch
   The steps on the road
   Each one of them was covered with blood
   As steps before also were
   His smile told of his great love to me
   And as I started to cry tears of relief
   He made a statement
   
   Beloved one, I may not tell you why
   I let you face situations like these
   But I give you a promise...
   I will never do these things
   To hurt you in any way
   But to strengthen you for future walk
   And remember
   Beloved one you will never be able to walk
   Deeper into the unknown parts of the forest
   Than I have done
   I have walked the whole way
   And therefore I know how to give you guidance
   When you feel trapped on unknown ways...
   
   He suddenly stood up and pointed
   In another direction, and said:
   Now walk this way and you will soon be
   Out on the main path again
   
   He disappeared from my sight
   But my spirit could feel his presence of His
   I trusted His words, and soon I walked
   Beside the clear spring again
   My whole being was strengthened
   And I was armoured with the trust in Him
   I needed for future tests to come
   And I continued to walk the path ahead
