DIGITAL TRANSMISSION
John 13:15- I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.
In 2000, a movie was digitally transmitted over the internet from a studio in California to its world premiere in Atlanta, Georgia. It went from studio to theater screen without ever touching the film. With digital distribution, electronic impulses are used instead of huge reels of celluloid.
In this age of electronics, often described as “high -tech, “low-touch” its good to remember that GOD is using another type of “digital transmission.” In sharp contrast, though, HIS is a “high -touch” method to communicate HIS grace and love.
The English word digital comes from the word digit, which refers to fingers on our hands. As I think about the life and ministry of JESUS, I remember how HE used HIS hands to bring hope and healing. HE touched the sick, held little children, broke bread for hungry people and allowed HIS hands to be nailed to the cross for our sins. In John 13 we read that JESUS, in a startling act of humility, washed the feet of HIS disciples and told them, “If I then, your LORD and TEACHER, have washed your feet, you ought also to wash one another’s feet” (v14).
When our hearts are humble and our hands are yielded to HIM, the LORD still transmits HIS gospel of grace to others through our human touch of love.
(David McCasland)
Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, LORD, to THEE
Take my hands and let them move,
At the impulse of THY love.
(Havergal)
