I spent 40 minutes reading the bible this morning in the quiet of the Nook. And though I was quite caught up with the story of King David and his life, it didn't feel like the spirit was speaking to my heart.
A few hours later, as I was starting to drive to run some errands. I switched CDs in the car and the moment the song Let it be Jesus started playing, my attention was caught by the first two sentences: " Let it be Jesus, the first name that I call. Let it be Jesus, my song inside the storm" My heart opened and subsequently, listening to the same song repeatedly, I felt refreshed and recharged.
Lesson learnt: Doesn't matter how quiet the environment is or what spiritual discipline you are practising. If the heart is not open and ready to receive the touch of the holy spirit, you won't get anything. Geddit??
