OF THE SPIRIT

By -


GALATIANS 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, 
patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 
gentleness and self-control. Against such 
things there is no law. 

Love is;
Joy sings;
Peace prays;
Patience waits;
Kindness smiles;
Faithfulness stays;
Gentleness comforts;
Self-control stands guard.

JEP

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified 
the sinful nature with its passions and desires. 
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step
with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited,
provoking and envying each other (24-26).



SOMEHOW MY SOUL

I will serve the Lord
Somehow I will serve
I will serve the Lord
As I abide this earth

Somehow I will follow
Jesus I will surrender
All and give Him glory
Due HIS holy worth

Somehow I will stand
When my heart hurts
And believe HIS love
Conquers hates worst

Somehow my soul will
Rise as my body turns to dirt
The Lord will be The Light
Who quenches ALL my thirst

I THINK

Think on These Things One of the tragic casualties of our age has been that of the contemplative life--a life that thinks, a life thinks things through, and more particularly, thinks God’s thoughts after Him. A person sitting at his or her desk staring out the window would never be assumed to be working. No! Thinking is not equated with work. Yet, had Newton under his tree, or Archimedes in his bathtub, bought into that prejudice, some natural laws would still be up in the air or buried under an immovable rock. Pascal’s Pensees, or Thoughts, a work that has inspired millions, would have never been penned. What is even more destructive is the assumption that silence is inimical to life. The radio in the car, Muzak in the elevator, and the symphony entertaining callers "on hold" all add up as grave impediments to personal reflection. In effect, the mind is denied the privilege of living with itself even briefly and is crowded with outside impulses to cope ...
