Never in the history of the universe has there been a person with such influence. Maybe it is because this man was fully man, but also fully God. He did not hold a significant position according to the world. He was born, lived and died poor. He left his legacy in the hands of ordinary, afraid and uneducated men and women. He died at the hands of those He came to serve and save. We have none of His writings, but instead He let eye witnesses write His biography. He made humility a virtue. He did not exercise His rights nor His powers as the King of everything. He demonstrated what this life is supposed to be lived like. He gave away everything He had. He let His reputation be smeared by corrupt people without speaking out in His own defense. He was wrongfully executed and died despite living an innocent life. He overcame death, rising from the grave on the third day. Even then, He did not boast nor draw attention to Himself, leaving the news of His victory to be spread by the least of all. And He did not return to the grave, but ascended to His Father and has been alive ever since, interceding on behalf of His adopted siblings, demanding justice for them because of His works to pay the ransom each of us owes. The is no one like Him. He stands alone in greatness, generously giving grace to all those who will humbly accept it.
