I am so in love with God at the moment, and I am so afraid. Those of you who know, are aware that in our spiritual life we have ups followed by downs. Mine is on the up swing, and I don't know how long it will be before the pendulum swings the other way. This is a time of spring (for me), new life and harvest. Yet spring is followed by fall and winter, which brings death (as we see in nature).
We are to gather the harvest of joy, peace and revelation of God in the spring and summer to hold us over when life turns like the leaves and then die. We get so excited though with abundance, that sometimes, we use up or waste our harvest. Then we wonder why we're starving in the winter season of our hearts.
Remember, it is our responsibility, as Christians, to keep the fire of the Holy Spirit alive with in us. How do we do that? By remaining. Remaining in Him who gives us life.
John 15:4
"Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me."
