Consider the eleven-circuit labyrinth as a blueprint of lifeon earth. We enter at birth and journey through each chapter tothe center, to the end of this life, when we enter into the heavenlyJerusalem. It symbolizes our walk through this earthly existence.Our whole life is a return journey to God, from Whom we came andto Whom we must return. An ancient spiritual tool, the labyrinthis rich in symbolism and numerology. Author John James, in hisstudies of the sacred geometry of ancient labyrinths, offers thisanalysis: "It portrays man's path to God, not after death, butnow, while here on earth." Walking this sacred trail can help usmake sense of the complex and mysterious paths of our earthlymeanderings and remind us of exactly who we are and what we arehere to do. That help is divine grace, which can lead us joyfullythrough life.We walk the labyrinth in prayer and meditation to see thebeauty of life when lived as our Creator intends, to contemplatehow we are doing, and to seek the wisdom to know God's plan forour lives. The message will be clear when we walk our path in thefreedom to love God and His laws above all things, and to lift up oneanother in love. As St. Th?r?se of Lisieux said, "...my vocation, atlast I have found it--my vocation is love!
