Somewhere between
Eager excuses
And excessive effort
We can surrender
To the Lord
And let His spiritual gifts
Overflow with
The fruit of His Spirit
From within us
As we open our heart
As a conduit
To graciously give
What we have
Flowing through us.
(Can’t do it?
Be God’s conduit
And leave the results
With Him.)

Even when Jesus
Doesn’t appear
To your eyes
The evidence
Of His presence
Is near.

The living, resurrected Jesus Christ needs to be experienced, not analyzed. The true nature of Christianity is relational, not informational. Let the living water of the Holy Spirit freely flow through you so that it refreshes and enlivens everyone you encounter.

Desires you accommodate
Ever persist.
Those you resist
Gradually desist.
