Bishop Graham draws on Paul's Letter to the Ephesians: when we are root our lives deeply in Christ's love we can achieve more than we could ever have asked or imagined.
Paul reminds the the gentiles that Jesus, through his death and resurrection, has broken the walls of enmity and division between God and between his people. We are all, because of this, one family of God, a new creation, a new humanity.
Our strength will rise as we walk with God. We will soar like eagles. Because of our sure and certain hope in Jesus Christ we will run and not be tired. We will do more with God's help than we can possibly imagine.
Simeon’s contentment or Anna’s joy can only be achieved when we are humble enough to look at Jesus and see God doing things that are greater than we can ever imagine.
