A Library Of Resources For Spiritual Growth
It is interesting and helpful for us to recognize this dominant soul quality in the Lord’s people. Each person we meet makes a special impression upon our minds and sensibilities which no one else makes. The more thorough the person is saved and filled with the Spirit, and united with the divine mind, the more perfectly will their deep inner personality be brought out and manifested by the Holy Spirit. Some of God’s children impress us with love, others with illumination, others with great force, others with faith, others with conviction, others with sweetness of spirit, others with humility and resignation, others with authority and a regnant power, others with quietness and retirement. Could our eyes be sufficiently open to see things in the full light of the Holy Spirit, and our keen spiritual sensibilities be perfectly keen to the play of spirit-waves, or the detection of spiritual odors, we should find an unspeakable joy in the variety and fellowship of all God’s saints. This will be one of the joys of heaven. The soul is larger than the body, and the spirit is larger than the soul. There is a spiritual atmosphere which surrounds us, as the air surrounds the world, and we can feel the touch of this soul-atmosphere.
