Christ Is Risen in You and in Me

 

 

“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me,” said Paul in his letter to the Galatians (2:20, NRSV). For Paul, faith life is much more than simply doing what Jesus said. For Paul, faith life is not just following Jesus. Paul says Jesus lives in him.

 

Who is this Jesus that Paul has in him? Paul says, “The life you see me living is not ‘mine,’ but it is lived by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me” (Message). What I hear from Paul is, “Jesus who died on the cross for me rose in me.” Paul is talking about the compassion and love for the poor, the hungry and the sick; the passion for life; the transforming power; and the power of resurrection! This is his new identity.

 

The nature of the life of the church is the resurrected life of Christ. Did Jesus who died on the cross for you rise in you? Does the risen Christ live in your church?

 

Let us join together in singing:

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia.

Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!

 

Is the life of the risen Christ not percolating in you? Do you not feel the life of the risen Christ filling your soul, mind and body? Let it flow. Let it fill the church. Let it flow to local communities. Let it continue to flow to the ends of the earth.

 

Christ is risen in you and in me, Alleluia!

 

 Sung Ho
