Less of Me, More of You
If I truly lived by those famous words, God could really use me. My deepest desire is to live joyfully in suffering with my King. That empathy would only come from His heart rather than mine. My human emotions and views can only harm those I desire to help the most. When I see brokenness I want to comfort and repair but what if there is deeper restoration that is coming from that broken heart, what if the Holy Spirit is moving and making them uncomfortable and I see it as an opportunity to jump in and save them from their pain? As humans, our view of love is limited and generally fuzzy but, if we lived in God's love Holy Spirit could move more freely and we could see further healing of each others souls rather than the temporary patchwork fix that our consoling words bring. We do not understand God's movings unless we are moving with Him and let His fragrance saturate our being. I want the aroma of Christ to permeate every room I enter and the stench of my rotting heart to fade.
