Am reading a book now on the life of
Paul.
This man of God has always fascinated me. I see him reflected in my own personality; it's scary, the similarities. Yet so many lessons I've learnt, lessons on balancing law and grace. Not that I've entirely grasped that balance as yet, but at least I'm on the journey to, I believe.
Faith and works. Law and grace. Seemly contradictions, yet Biblically co-habiting, inter-dependent. Really need You, Holy Spirit, to bring further illumination.
The more I spend time reflecting, the more I'm realising my own foolishness, and how much I need Him in interpreting His Word. It can't be done on mere theological argument; rhema must come.
Lord, Your rhema, pls!
