:: Food for THOUGHT

By nature, Jesus was fully God and also fully human and lived as such. He chose moment-by-moment to remain grounded. Although he is fully God, he never drew upon his nature as God to do anything. He only lived out his relationship with God, living in the very same manner that God desires to be in relationship with every human being. Jesus was just the first to do it to the uttermost -- the first to absolutely trust God's life within him, the first to believe in God's love and his goodness without regard for appearance or consequence. So, when Jesus healed the blind, he did so as a dependent, limited human being trusting in God's life and power to be at work within him and through him. Jesus, as a human being, had no power within himself to heal anyone. Those things were done by God, through Jesus. Remember this, humans are defined not by their limitations but by the intentions that God has for them. -- The Shack, W.M. Paul Young
