The Most Intimate Part

08 Mar

“His Holy Spirit, breathing in you, is the most intimate part of your life…” -Ephesians 4:30, The Message

Oh yeah.  Oh yeah!  I forgot, somehow.  Through the busyness and mire and muck of life I’ve forgotten that this Spirit of His in me is this active and alive in me, for me, through me.  That sounds ridiculous to write it out like that, but it is true.  I’ve lived my life lately in a very unbelieving way, forgetting that my soul can feast on this most intimate of all experiences, given freely, mine for the taking, daily, moment-by-moment.

There’s so much that could be said here.  And more that will be.  But for now, I want to settle back into this most awesome and earth-shattering of all truths: He dwells in me, home in me, abiding in me, mine to know, making me “fit for Himself,” as Paul continues in the same verse.  “Don’t take such a gift for granted.”

Okay, then!
