Good Morning.
Jerry and I were talking yesterday, and we had such a good conversation! We started our conversation talking about bad spirits hanging around and the fact it didn’t matter if it is a loved one dragging around a bad spirit or a bad spirit wanting us to drag it around, it’s all the same, and we don’t want it in the clean life Jesus has given us. We want to honor what Jesus has done for us.
Jesus once told me that it is dangerous to hold hands with bad spirits. I feel like that has gone so much deeper in my heart these last two years. Sister Willie has said you can’t be thankful and grumble at the same time. They don’t fit together. Man, she is so right! I feel around for that nugget in my pocket a lot.
Our conversation led to Jerry talking more about wrong feelings, and he said that you can get to a place with Jesus where you don’t expect things to be your way; you are just thankful to belong to Jesus. I am paraphrasing because I can’t say it is as wonderful as Jerry does. Jerry talked about a few times he has seen Barbara be an example of this. We had a sweet time talking about your wife’s sweet spirit. We talked about Bess too. Their nothingness is what makes them great to us. The world might get upset with me saying “their nothingness”, but that is such a precious gift to them from Jesus, to get to that humble place and to have a heart like that. I hope this is coming across with the feelings we felt in loving their sweet spirits. It left me asking Jesus to make me more like them.
Our conversation left me thankful for the examples and help that Jesus gives us. We are not down here blindly feeling around. Some are lighting the way for us and showing us exactly what to pray for.
Jesus gave you a good wife!
And he gave me a good husband!
Our conversation felt so sweet, I just wanted to share it with you!
