Our God of emotion and devotion has a gift for you ~Kim-Evinda

Wednesday's Word

“Nevertheless [despite your sorrow, there’s good news] I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage [your good and My glory] that I go away for if I do not go away, the Helper [The Holy Spirt, MY Spirit] will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.”

When someone gives you a gift, do you regift it or put it away and pull it out every now and then?

Thanks for joining us for Wednesday’s Word with Kim-Evinda and Trench Classes Untied. Today’s blog is a great reminder of the value of The Gift that is each of ours upon the acceptance of Christ into our hearts and lives.

Tears ran down her face as she read and re-read this portion of scripture, especially as she read her convictions she had journaled.

            “What was accomplished because You went away really resonates with me: Because you went away, died defeated death, and rose again and ascended to Our Father’s right hand to mediate for us, we have been given the gift of Your Spirit to and for all who accept You. This is a huge gift for if You hadn’t of left, You would be confined to one place at a time, but now, You are omnipresent, all over. Your leaving meant You could be present for all of us through Your Spirit. What am I doing with this Gift?”

She pondered that last question and couldn’t help but think of the times she had re-gifted something someone had given her because of not needing what had been given to her or tucking it away as a sentimental something to be pulled out every now and then as a reminder of the person. “Oh, Abba, please help me to open this gift every day, several times a day to show my gratitude for it by using it!”

Friends, can I encourage you to think about this precious gift of His Spirit and what it is that you do with it? Do you put it in a closet and pull it out every now and then, or do you cherish it and use it every day as a part of your daily routine? God is not confined to time anymore; He’s in us and for us.

Love,
Kim-Evinda
