POWER IN HUMILITY

Whenever I think about the cross I can’t help thinking about power and when I think about both the cross and the power, especially around Easter season, I can’t help thinking about all the possible things that Jesus Christ could have done to avoid being crucified on the cross, and dying such a shameful death. In fact, at such times my thoughts go wild.

There is a game we used to play with my friends and siblings when I was young. The game was called statue. In this game, the lead person would time when you are least expecting him, just when you were doing something that requires your full attention (the more awkward the situation the sweeter the game would be) and then, from the blue he would appear and shout out the word statue, and there you were.
