Isaiah 61:1

"The spirit of the sovereign Lord is on me,
because He has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners."


My initial thought was "oh, he is talking about Jesus, not us".
Then I began to realize, "what's the difference?"
As christians we're called to "walk as Jesus did", so even though all these characteristics are what Jesus was all about, it should be what we're all about, and what we're ACTIVELY doing every day.
