THE REAL POWER

With the indictment of I. Lewis Libby one cannot help wondering who in the high place of our government wanted the leak about the CIA agent. And one cannot help wondering what sort of power they think they own and control.

Those in high places in our government appear to have no clue that their power is crumbling and they are causing the so-called power of this country to crumble.

Who realizes that the real power is not human power at all but the power of God, which is the power of Love.

"Have confidence, I have overcome the world," says Jesus. (John 16:33)
The great power of this world was unleashed against Jesus the Christ. He suffered, died and was buried.

And rose from the dead! This is the real power: the power of love that overcomes death, all death.

So it is that the humble acts of love in our everyday life have the real power on earth and in the end will triumph.
"God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in them." (1John 4:16)
