Summary
In the church, we often divide via our sources of power. We live in spite of one another because our lives are defined by the strength of our associations. We try to “make a life for ourselves” in natural ways that reflect the world. Defining ourselves by walking out-of-step from God’s presence. Self-protective fears lead us to trust our resumes, social acceptance, and bank accounts. Instead, we are called to re-unite in Christ’s Spirit. Not by our our way but by his might. Remembering that we have a loving Spirit inside of us. One we can trust and that unites with others in his sustenance, joy, and refreshing. Being restored to our intimate oneness with the trinity, we gain faith from “the power working within us.”(Eph 3:20 KJV). Becoming defined by our shared identity in the Spirit more than the dried-up wells that often promise but can’t bring “springs of ever-living water.”
