"FLOW"

This beautiful Wednesday morning as I came to church, I felt a little anxious and wasn't really sure what was going on inside of me. This was the second week of "FLOW" and as I started to pray the Lord gave me a picture of a clear stream flowing over hundreds of rocks below. He said that the rocks represented the hard things of our lives and that the cool stream of water moving above represented His Holy Spirit flowing over us. In my minds eye as I was looking at this picture my first thought was "it sure would be great if Evasia could write a poem about what I see in this picture about "FLOW". The next thing I heard was the Lord speaking to me saying write. And my response to Him was "what me"??? But as the music in the background was playing these words came:

"FLOW"

Just like the waters of a stream flows
So does Your Spirit flow over us
The constant stream is the same
As Your love for us flows

The bottom of the stream is rocky
Like the way life is for us at times
But Your stream flows through every crevasse
And knows every sharp edge

The way of the Lord blows gently
Like the wind over the streams of life
Over the rocky and secret places
Holy Spirit flow into our lives

Lord may we be centered in You
With Your Spirit flowing all around us
Come Sweet Holy Spirit
FLOW. . .

As the days move forward may the Lord hear the cries of your heart. Because He knows where you ard I are in this journey called life and He'll bring His comfort, peace, joy, grace, mercy and love. We just need to seek after Him and He will bring the gentle breeze of the Holy Spirit.

I would like to invite you to come on any Wednesday morning to joy us in the sanctuary at 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. to meet with our Heavenly Father.

Peace and blessings to you,
Ray

  • Now that was a good word!
    What is really neat is that as you FLOW Jesus is using you... empowering you... healing you...
    That was a beautiful poem He gave you... it will be neat to see if He puts music to the lyrics as you FLOW in the Spirit...
    Smell the coffee!

  • Hi Ray,
    Just to update you...oh and everyone else who might read this. Ray, Gary and Steve prayed for my shoulder which was in much pain Wednesday. After a while (see Pastor Gary's blog right after this one) it felt a little better. By Wed night it felt even better. Today I went to the doctor and it hardly hurt in comparison to Wed. morning. It felt so good that I felt silly going to the doctor. Praise God for his graciousness to get me out of pain!
    Thanks Ray for praying and listening to the Lord.
    I read in Luke this morning in chapter 10:20 "However,do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written heaven."I take that to mean that it is really neat that God healed me, but we are to remember that the greater miracle is that God has saved us in Jesus Christ from our sin.
    Valere
