Manifesting Christ in Our Lives

,

This is a season of manifestations, but it is not just about manifestations. It is also about how the people respond. How do they integrate into their lives what they have just experienced? How does that manifestation transform into an integration into their very being? So we will hear stories like the Magi—how they responded by the giving of gifts? How did the disciples respond? They responded by dropping everything and following him. Simeon responded by knowing that his life is now at peace and he is able to go because a promise has been fulfilled. Peter, James, and John respond by wanting to hunker down and dwell in that moment and build booths, tabernacles, and dwelling places for the three of them. These are all ways people responded to the experience of encountering Christ in this world.
