The Spirit is Speaking
It’s time to talk about your deepest essence, your spirit. The spirit is at an even deeper level than the soul. It’s the most personal, private part of ourselves, and it can be dormant or activated, depending on our choices. It can feel scary to access one’s spiritual self, because who the heck knows what it’s really about and what we might find there?
But here’s the good news: The spirit is where love and divine grace meet to communicate with us and repair all our brokenness. And it’s where we can gain spirit wisdom as we grow our relationship with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. We can actually learn to navigate life’s messiness by trusting that when our spirit is linked to the beauty of God’s spirit, we’re stronger and more sure of ourselves.
Once we truly connect with our spirit a great thing happens: We are ready to be partners with God, to not only have a relationship that means we’re never alone, but to be part of the Kingdom of God that’s unfolding all around us. We get to help build that loving kingdom on earth. Which is very exciting.
This inward/outward process has been described as looking,
“out upon the world through the sheen of the Inward Light, and reacting toward people spontaneously and joyously from this Inward Center.” - Thomas Kelly
I mean. Doesn’t that sound like an adventure?
This is Living Now
Your spirit has been with you your entire life. It’s at your core. What if you were a tiny bit brave and started conversing with it? I promise God will show up and guide you. Why not give it a try?
