Encountering Spirit
An Opening Word
We must be rebirthed by the Spirit:
not an intellectualized doctrine
about the Spirit — a mere pointer —
but by the living, breathing, blowing, burning,
flying, flaming, fragrant, speaking,
watching, wild and wondrous Spirit.
We must open our hearts and encounter… Spirit!
not an intellectualized doctrine
about the Spirit — a mere pointer —
but by the living, breathing, blowing, burning,
flying, flaming, fragrant, speaking,
watching, wild and wondrous Spirit.
We must open our hearts and encounter… Spirit!
