And the blessing we have in not ever doing it alone.....I am praying this morning for that yielding to His Spirit by all of us who believe...that we would know without that we are nothing...we can DO nothing apart from You in us and that with that Spirit we are capable of far more than we are on our own.....John 14:15-17"If you love me, show it by doing what I've told you. I will talk to the Father, and he'll provide you another Friend so that you will always have someone with you. This Friend is the Spirit of Truth. The godless world can't take him in because it doesn't have eyes to see him, doesn't know what to look for. But you know him already because he has been staying with you, and will even be in you!
I was to have written a review by today for Mark Batterson's new book Primal...I haven't finished it yet and don't want to shortchange a reveiw...not that I know how to write a review in the first place. I can tell you this book is illiciting alot of emotion in me ... confirming some things I have been thinking about who God is and what He desires for us as believers here on earth. Mark speaks about money and generosity and extravagance....he's talking about 'wonder'....and that's all the further I have gotten. I am being challenged in reading it and I think that's what we are supposed to have happen as believers, followers of Christ....indwelt beings....be challenged to love more and give more than we've ever been challenged before. There is much we can DO as followers of Christ, much we can give.....and discovering that will change the world. His love was meant to do that.
