Actions and Miracles: A Reflection* #1490

Actions and Miracles: A Reflection In the sacred temple, Jesus moved with purpose, Driving out the merchants, overturning tables, Clearing a space for the blind and the lame, Who came to Him seeking healing and hope. His actions spoke louder than words ever could, Each miracle a testament to His divine mission. He was wary of those whose words were empty, Their deeds betraying the truth they claimed to uphold. In a world where actions resonate, People are less confusing when their lives reflect their words. We must learn that our actions ripple through others' lives, Reminding us to tread carefully, for it’s not always about us. "If I am not doing the works of My Father, do not believe Me," He declared, "But if I am, let the works speak, even if you doubt My words, Believe in the miracles, for they reveal the truth, That the Father is in Me, and I am in the Father." In this, we find a profound unity, a call to align our deeds with our faith, A testament to the power of actions, speaking the language of the divine. Written by Steven G. Lee (May 24, 2024)
