Week 8: Helping Yourself
Clean up after yourself.
Isaiah 62: 10-12
I am still working on this one. I remember the admonition Matt Furey gave that he received from a noted Chinese and Taoist author and teacher, “In discipline lies freedom.” Do you believe that? The Bible says, whomever God loves, he disciplines. Why does God do that? One reason is so we will know we are his. If I recognize this it stands to reason I will discipline myself.
Another reason God disciplines us is to shape our souls into becoming a beautiful and functional dwelling place for the Holy Spirit. Everybody knows you clean up when someone is coming over. What needs to be cleaned up in you knowing that the King of Kings and Lord of Lords is aiming to stay with you today?
