Yesterday, in multiple ways, I was aroused to love Jesus more.
That gladdens me because I came here to be stretched in a way (Spiritual Direction) to allow others to be aroused to love Jesus more. What I'm saying is this simple thing, and it's for all Christians: It's me and Him before anything Missional that includes me.
I have been drawn again into Trinitarian theology. Now, don't let the word "theology" bog you down... it just means "think hard on, study". When I think on God being Always and being Love, then how could God be love then (when absolutely nothing else but He existed) without having another to love? Thus Trinity. And that's why His being is also Relational. Which is why He created you and me! Not because He was lonely (They had each other), but so He could show His Trinitarian, Relational way-of-being off!
The other element? Space.
A Trinitarian Theology is steady and trustworthy, but it's also distant from me without space to know myself that I might know Him. And this "knowing myself" is ongoing that my knowing Him might also, until the day.
Well, there are all kinds of words of beauty flying in the air from God, and some are landing... penetrating me. James Houston once said, "If we were to understand the pourosity of the human soul, we would know God better."
Help me to know how deeply permeable I am, my Lord. And then continue Your deep plunge! Amen.
