The Power of Love not the Love of Power.

The Holy Spirit showed me a beautiful truth about God as I was meditating on Matthew 5:5" Blessed are the meek for they shall inherent the earth." He showed me the for Him being God is more about character than power. Think about it. If God were into the power of His position, Why the plan of redemption? And a plan that involved such humiliation at that. Not only taking human form. But dying a death so inhumane that only those who Roman society looked upon as lesser could be subjected to the  torturous process. No power-hungry ego maniac would implement let alone carry out a plan. But God is love and Charity [Love] vaunteth not itself,is not puffed up...seeketh not her own." I John 4:16, I Corinthians 13:4-5  Instead of using His power to give us just condemnation. He looks upon us with compassion and uses everything in the universe to draw us to Himself. He's not even above begging (Ezekiel 20:35). And we still have the choice to say no. This selfless use of power is why Jesus could say "..I am meek and lowly in heart..." (Matthew`11:29)
