Greater

I have been mulling on this paragraph from Steve Furtick's book 'Greater'.

'By leaving and then sending His Spirit to dwell inside His followers- ordinary people like you and me- Jesus released a greater power for us to do extraordinary things on an extraordinary scale. The kinds of things the early church saw and did. The kinds of things He still wants to do today through us.

 Jesus isn't calling us to be greater than He is.

 He's calling us to be greater with him through His Spirit within us'
