How Should I Act Today? - C S Lewis

 

                                                     How Should I Act Today?

Wise words from C S Lewis...

"Let me make it quite clear that when Christians say the Christ-life is in them, they do not mean simply something mental or moral.

When they speak of being 'in Christ' or of Christ being 'in them', this is not simply a way of saying that they are thinking about Christ or copying Him.

They mean that Christ is in fact operating through them: that the whole mass of Christians are the physical organism through which Christ acts -- that we are His fingers and muscles, the cells of His body..."


[And so we are truly the Body of Christ here on this earth -- His heart, His hands, His voice, His physical acts of love and kindness are originating in Him but coming through us - His Body on earth.]
