Whatever chaos is in the
world, whatever governments are in power, and whether Christianity is in or out
of favor, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit invite you to walk and talk with
them every single day.
Your communication with the Trinity is not contingent
upon external factors, but internal ones. Your whole personality and human
nature are the means of communion with God, and that communication is a
spontaneous ongoing interaction.
What a pleasure.
What a mystery.
What an adventure!
In developing your
individuality in Christ, you speak your mind to God, disclose feelings of every
sort, and surrender your life and body to his care.
The Lord, in turn, may
respond by composing sentences in your mind, hugging your heart with tender
care, or imparting serenity to your body, a tangible peace that calms your
nervous system and melts your muscles.
As in any close bond,
conversation with God sometimes sings like poetry, and other times feels
uncertain and awkward. If you come to a place where God seems distant and your
burden heavy, get back to the basics. Kneel at your bedside for several nights,
praying for the rejuvenation of a lively faith.
The Lord is right there with
you. He will help remove any obstacles and rouse your awareness of the Holy
Spirit’s power and presence, for “we know that all things work together for
good for those who love God,who are called according to his purpose” (Rom
8:28).
