Last night our priest gave a wonderful homily centered around the time when Christ asked his disciples "Who do people say that I am?" and "Who do you say that I am?" and left us with homework assignment, he does that a lot. He left us with this question, "Who is Jesus Christ to You?"
My answer would be:
He is my beacon of light that draws me closer to His love and what He has to offer me for eternity. He lights the way with His love and mercy.
He is the spirit of all that is good, all that is love and all that is truth.
He is my best friend who will never turn His back on me, no matter what I do or fail to do.
He is my teacher, here to teach me to love as He loves.
He is the warm embrace that comforts me in times of strife.
He is the song of love that sings to my soul.
So the question is....who is Jesus Christ to you?

For me Jesus Christ is my bestfriend. He is my savior, He is the one I talked whenever I'm alone, sad, happy and whatever stage of emotion i'm in. He is my inspiration in life. He is my faith and my home.

I have no better answer than Peter's:
Matthew 16:13-16 (New International Version)
13When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
14They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
15"But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"
16Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
