The journey really does continue and today is no exception. As I have been blogging the past few days regarding God’s current work he wants me doing, I was nudged this morning with something I need to take very seriously. Today didn’t have much on the human list I needed to do. A couple items I would go to our church to get ready for a Celebrate Recovery leadership meeting and that was it. Memorizing some songs we are doing for an event in a few weeks is also on the list.
As I was starting my journaling I wrote asking God what He wanted me to know about this day. His response was immediate. He told me I have begun to know Him much better but it has mostly been in human, flesh, head-knowledge ways. These are all fine but they don’t equip me to use Him and His Holy Spirit in spiritual battlefields I will encounter during the day. He actually said I need to better stay in touch with my spirit and Him as I live the day. He IS SPIRIT as THE HOLY SPIRIT. God and I do have a good connection during our time each morning, but as I step into the rest of the day I go into my old self of completing the day. I do want to learn so much more about spiritual living since all of us are spiritual beings. It really is a different means of sensing the world around me. It is also difficult for me to try and find words to use in describing it. So, I’m just going to leave this blog with this much and see what happens in the rest of today.
When I was living the life of a principal I would often tell a teacher or staff member to try and get into the mind and emotions of the child they were having difficulty with. To try and think/respond like the child helped one to know how one ought to be responding to them so one could actually teach them rather than set them off or turn them off. There’s a lot of training behind this process and it does work well once mastered. Somehow I feel this is what I’m to be doing today. God’s Holy Spirit lives within me. I am to try and get into IT even though IT is already within me. Like I already said, words don’t describe this well. I’ll quit for the day! God is so Good.
