Let me share with you a personal “log in the eye” and how it is something I still see as problematic in the body of Christ.
Poetry and Ponderings by Shelly
There is a love where water flows
You’ll never thirst when it’s your home
That broken space that’s hidden deep
Seen by Christ He tends the need.
Some of you feel that you are unseen. You know what God has placed in you, but it seems like no one else seems to notice, or at least they don’t acknowledge it.

Like you, there are some places I’ve learned to be comfortable in. As soon as I get really settled in, I find that Jesus desires another “stretching.”
There must be a putting away of the old man once The Holy Spirit comes to reside in one’s heart.
In this season we best be like Jesus willing to turn to the friend, Peter, and say, “Satan, get thee behind me.”
This morning the Lord had me in 1 Kings. We find the story of an old King David getting ready to pass the torch of his throne to another.
