The Power of Christ

From today's Daily Saints e-mail:

For a long time, it seems, we have been very conscious of Jesus' miracles as proofs of his divinity. What we sometimes overlook is Jesus' consuming interest in simply healing people's sickness, whatever other meaning his actions had. The power that "went out from him" was indeed a sign that God was definitively breaking into human history in final fulfillment of his promises; but the love of God was also concrete in a very human heart that was concerned about the suffering of his brothers and sisters. It is a reminder to Christians that salvation is for the whole person, the unique body-spirit unity.

I think this also serves as a reminder that, indeed, we will do greater things in His name. When we humble ourselves and put on the person of Christ, we have the power to move mountains, be they large masses of stone and boulder or large masses of hearts hardened more than the toughest ore.

Peace to you this day.
