[TruthTalk] Walking after the Spirit

[Judy Taylor]

How is it that "practicing the presence of Christ" does not work on TT? where listers who are considered rude become gifts from God to train and teach how to walk after the Spirit and not in the flesh for whom you can say Thank You Lord and lay down your rights?    Does it only work out on the road with anonymous ppl? judyt       From: Terry Clifton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Izzy, that is a great idea.  Possibly the best advice I will ever receive concerning driving.  I am even going to forward this one to my daughter.  Bless you sister.

Like Brother Lawrence in �The Practice of the Presence of Christ�, try to keep your mind connected to the Lord when behind the wheel. You are driving FOR the glory of Jesus. Whenever someone tries to cut in front of you or is otherwise rude, consider the possibility that the Lord allowed that driver to be there for the express purpose of teaching you humility and patience.  I mean really; not just theoretically.  Each rude driver, then, becomes a �gift� from God, to train and teach you how to walk in the Spirit and not in the Flesh.  You wind up saying, �Thank you Lord�, instead of cursing them. It becomes an exercise in laying down your �rights�. (And stay out of rush hour traffic�there are just too many of them. J  )  Just a thought�Does that sound helpful, or not? Let me know if you try it. Izzy
