“If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe,
how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?”
JOHN 3:12
The
path of progress, of spiritual maturity, hinges upon our willingness to
let go of the old ways and
embrace the new ways; to rise above the lower order of things and walk
in a higher order – a heavenly way, a spiritual way, as opposed to the
earthly, natural, carnal way that we are so used to walking. Repentance
is a continual process of agreeing with what God shows us about
ourselves and then making the necessary adjustments.
The
Holy Spirit is intent upon making radical adjustments – to create in us
a willingness to look at things
differently; an eagerness to begin seeing things as God sees them,
regardless of how uncomfortable that may be; to value the things that He
values and let go of lesser things; to align ourselves with His Mind
and Will for all things; to leave our ground altogether and come onto
His ground – regardless of the consequences.
