When we feel and empathize with the pain of others, we feel moved to action to alleviate that suffering. That is the work of the man or woman of faith. When we act to sanctify our own lives, and join the Messiah in His cosmic struggle, then we also become Messiahs in our own right as God anoints us as warriors in the army of Heaven. Rev. Moon is my commander in chief in that army. And yes, in the process, miracles can and do take place.
