This episode is all about the power of encouragement, which arises from purity of heart.
In contrast to Ananias and Sapphira mentioned in Acts 5, Barnabas lived from a heart that was "all-in" for Jesus, a heart sustained by charity and solidarity with the Christian community. The heart of Barnabas was brought to perfection by his complete dedication to the covenant communion established between God and humanity in the person of Jesus Christ and in His "Body" the Church we have today. With his way of making small acts of encouragement, Barnabas encouraged Paul and thus gave him to us even up to this day as a powerful preacher and teacher and depository of the mighty acts of God.
