A Christ Follower: The Journey

...Whoever is united with the Lord is one spirit with Him. 1 Corinthians 6:17 --Paul           There are all kinds of ways to be intimate, but there is none like the one about which Paul writes in this passage.  This intimacy goes way deeper than the physical, the emotional or the relational.  It is an eternal intimacy which goes far beyond any intimacy a human being can provide. It is an immortal, enduring and boundless intimacy where you meet God in your spirit, once Christ Jesus is your Lord.  It is an intimacy connecting the most Holy Spirit of all with you the one He loves.      Take some time to be still today and know God:  Instead of rushing through the high paced traffic of life, take a breath and see Him in His creation.  Hear Him in your surroundings. Take the time to feel Him ever close to you at a place deeper than your soul. Be quiet for just a while and experience God . Do this and you will be Blessed 2day Especially Today. SoJourner
