The above picture is very interesting (taken from the January 2006 edition of Reader’s Digest). Don’t you think it describes the church life vividly?
Living the church life is a matter of being filled with God’s Air (= Spirit). The following verses prove this point:
The wind blows where it wills, … so is everyone who is born of the Spirit. (John 3:8)
God is Spirit, and we must worship Him in spirit. (John 4:24)
… the Spirit gives life. (2 Corinthians 3:6)
If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask and he will give life to him,… (1 John 5:16)
When we turn our hearts to God who is dwelling in our spirit, we will be filled with the heavenly Air and we will be happy and healthy “balloons”. Many Christians are not used to exercising their spirit. They need help! “Give him some air!” This is why we need to be with all the saints as frequently as possible. Let’s help one another to be filled with God. Let’s give life to one another.
“Give him some air!” Pray that there will be a lot of “balloons” in the church life, the Body life. May the Lord fill us unto the fullness of God. Amen!
