My spirit
John 14:26
26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and will cause you to remember everything I said to you.
My spirit
Where are you hidden day today ... where do you visit at nighttime?
Where do you get refreshed ... and why do you seem bound?
It seems that your camouflage is really so effective and
in the ruckus of this the world you don’t even make a sound.
Are you drowned out by my soul ... the entity of emotion?
Are you completely surrounded ... by my mind and will?
Is my self centered-ness ... my altar of devotion?
That even in my worship ... I try myself to fill.
Powers of darkness are gloating for even my prayers are for self.
It seems that all that matters ... is for me to do very well.
My spirit must be craving ... to be understood by me.
The tears cried are spilled waters for I am too busy to be free.
To look for my spirit within ... is like looking for money in the gutter.
It may become a habit ... because I found a dime there years ago.
Smooth sailing is more peaceful than to rely on an engine that sputters
to get to the goals of my longing ... which were written in forevermore.
If redeemed the spirit ... is joined to the Heavenly Christ forever.
Searching at our own level ... is like digging in your yard for gold.
To rise above self in obedience ... in the Holy Who will never
do anything you don’t will to do ... as the truth in Christ unfolds.
But Satan will try to deceive you ... he moves on your feelings and body.
He will employ your reasoning ... as he triggers your mind in action.
Your will is like molded putty ... will fall in line with everybody’s
to bring God from the Throne ... to the level of your own satisfaction.
