Scientists are now suggesting that the universe we live in is continually expanding from it's heart or centre. Considering we serve a creative God, I tend to believe it is entirely possible that He is continuing to create even as I speak (And I guess He still speaks things into existence).
I am exploring the idea that our inner space or internal capacity should also be expanding in a similar way. At the simplest form this means the capactiy of the soul to love and be loved, to give more and more deeply. Also the development of our character in the "Fruits of the Spirit" and our level of resilience to the challenges that we face.
I also feel in "the spirit" our inner-self can be expanding. In Isaiah 54: 2 it talks about
"enlarge the place of your tent
stretch your tent curtains wide
do not hold back;
lengthen your cords,
strengthen your stakes."
What are your cords and your stakes to enable you to enlarge the place of your tent?
I believe God is looking for room to dwell within us in the spirit, developing more room to move within us and ultimately overflow to those around us. John 14:23 If anyone loves me he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him and we will come and make our home with him.
Certainly food for thought. Is your inner space expanding??
