We've been talking for several weeks about the way God works in the deep, inner places of our lives that no one else knows about.
Until today, we've been looking at the "us" side of the equation... How God forces us to look at ourselves, how He knows our faults & failures, & how He leads us to places of despair when we need it in order to become who He's created us to be.
But today, we shifted our focus from the "us" side to the "Him" side.
For some reason, we seem to have this idea that God depends on our performance in order to move His Kingdom forward. But that's just not true! Yes, He calls us to obedience & to walk in the Spirit, but not we put ourselves in unnecessary bondage when we think we make or break God's plan. C'mon... He's God!
The reality is that God does not move because of us, He moves in spite of us!
When we understand this reality, it sets us free to be used for His glory! We stop trying to be the Holy Spirit & just let the Holy Spirit be the Holy Spirit. That sounds a little silly, but it's deep... Think about it!
