….similar to a Holy Quick Check
Once
again, the ever present has been overlooked by me. Hubby said this street, not far from
our home, has been there a long time. Last week, going west on Messick, was the
first time I had taken notice of this unusual street sign.
On impulse, I wanted
to put on my right blinker and drive up. It was as if I imagined a drive-thru
for guidance and direction would be located just at the end of the road.
Not far from
home. Quick and convenient. Answers served up at “will call.”
But
God ….has always had a way of bringing me up short. Almost immediately I had a
sensation---a cross between a God whisper and a shoulder tap---a sort of
throat-clearing God nudge. A God Calling moment.
Ah-hem,
Dotsy. This nearby location is 3.3 miles from your house. I’m indwelling. How
much closer can I be? Am I not always with you?
Holy
Spirit might be the name of the street/drive, but in the life of a believer,
God’s Spirit is the enlightened Power within. It is this Spirit who teaches,
guides, and instructs----filling us not only with understanding but also with
inner peace and joy!
The
prophet Isaiah describes the attributes of the Holy Spirit as
the spirit of the Lord: ". . . the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the
spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and fear of the LORD." (Isaiah 11:2)
I
have had a lot of questions lately about a decision which I have been
considering. Yes? No? If yes, then when? How? I don’t have to turn left on Holy
Spirit Drive for the answer. I just need to look within.
