But I think its encouraging to know that others feel that way too. The problem is that when we feel doubt and question things, we think there's something wrong with us and we don't wanna say anything...but I think we all go through that. Every time I have been "transparent" with those tings, I have found others say, "Me too!" And it seems like now we know that we're not the only one, but that the doubts are simply a temptation that is common to man! Also - the bible says that the weapons of our warfare..cast down every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. THe doubt tries to exalt itself against what we know God is. And if He put that in the bible, then it is something we need to be aware of! Hope that all makes sense!

But we have images that suit both the Father and the Son--we are made in GOd's image so necessarily we can tag God with some human physical characteristics. Jesus was a physical man. But the Holy Spirit has no image association. I like to think of the Holy Spirit as sound--what comes out of the mouth of the father and the son.In the beginning was the word...the Holy Spirit is the Word in my ear.Susan Cowgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12009157421965361554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3648926369091231553.post-3345726215224663512009-04-02T15:23:00.000-06:002009-04-02T15:23:00.000-06:00I guess I see the Holy Spirit's role as having a f...I guess I see the Holy Spirit's role as having a foot in both worlds - physical and spiritual. Is he the spiritual expression of God inside of us here on earth? As Jesus said, "No one COMES to the Father except through me," I wonder if no one EXPERIENCES the Father except through the Holy Spirit? I fear I may just be muddying the waters. And I'm in no way meaning to add to scripture, just wondering if there is a parallel.<BR/><BR/>Very though provoking question.

When I get like that, God always let's me know that I'm thinking too hard, and reminds me that our relationship is more than, and simpler than, me trying to put something so much greater than human understanding into words. <BR/><BR/>I don't know if this helps you at all. But hey, this situation is good! You've posted your honest thoughts! Maybe someone out there needed reassurance, and by seeing a woman of faith, like yourself, with questions, let them know they weren't alone and that they're okay too. :-)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955618432390537572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3648926369091231553.post-87435002812303814992009-04-02T10:14:00.000-06:002009-04-02T10:14:00.000-06:00Girlfriend, we need to go to Florida TOGETHER for ...Girlfriend, we need to go to Florida TOGETHER for a break!
