Word and Spirit.

I am currently - along with some other people here at King of Love - are reading through the Bible in 90 days!

This has been and is a great journey - I have developed a whole new respect and appreciation for the Old Testament. The history that we have as Christians is so rich - reading about where I have come from - what our forefathers had to deal with, and learning more about the greatness of Gods Love!
I find that I am becoming more and more hungry for the word of God - reading the truth - renewing my mind.
the last couple of weeks I have found that a huge percentage of my quiet times with God was reading and there was not a lot of anything else.
As I stopped today to spend time with Jesus, I forgot how refreshing it is just to sit and soak in Gods spirit! To just be in the presence of God!
I realised how important it is to have the word of God in your life, joined with the Spirit! Just as Adrian Warnock wrote in one if his blogs. . .
 

  "We cannot just take the Holy Spirit bit. We must let the Word get to us. 

We must submit to the Word."

It is easy to have an unhealthy balance of just the spirit or just the word, but when we join them together and have the Spirit and the Word it starts to become dynamic!
