Books spread out on the couch opened and
messy and here I sit in the middle of my favorite thing, reading. I have been listening to all the teachers
that have much to say about the movement of the Spirit in their lives. I
am in a basking in a place where I hear nothing around me. Silence!
I open the old journal and I read, "I must lose everything I've
gained." and "In all the world I have nothing but Jesus."

| Just a few favorite Books |
The teachers give great wisdom streaming from the lives they have
lived in Christ. Books that tell stories of Beautiful struggling and
honest heart filled commitment pointing toward intimacy with Jesus.
Seeking the Lord has required the hard
work of examining with the Spirit my agitations and discomforts. So often
I am content with what I think I can handle….Okay, okay…that is enough, Lord. Examine is a listening with the Spirit deeply in the secret place. Examine pays attention to details. I say, "Good
enough, this is too hard. I have enough to think about with all the minds
of others "In Christ" spread
out on the couch.” I say this because I
have lost and am afraid of losing more. So I ask; what am I afraid of? Why am I afraid?
Today The Spirit gently probes me with the
vision of my journals stuffed under all the ones that have so much to give.
How beautiful is the mind of God where the Spirit lives and I am one of the
temples where He resides.
Only the mind of God can see our hearts
The Mind of God
1 Corinthian 2:6-13
“The real teacher is the
Holy Spirit drawing us away from any unhealthy attachment to our human teachers”
