Most of us are conscious of our earthly suit that we glamorise daily as we look in the mirror. We spend a lot of money and time shaping it up to look good. We are conscious of our weight and looks and plastic surgery aids in defining our looks. What we see sometimes is not the real person but a make up of many sorts. The real person is behind the covering of clothes and make up. The outward man deceives us from getting in touch with the real me. In the world the external impression is important. Yet we know that this will not last. One day we will all grow old and ugly. We try and delay this fact through many ways till tragedy strikes and we have to accept the fact we are old.
Some of us are aware of the spirit man within us. Our Creator created us all with a spirit, soul and body. We neglect the soul and spirit by spending too much time on the earthly suit. Some of us are psychologically minded and aware of a self beyond what we see. We are aware of our thoughts and emotions. We try and improve ourselves and train to be more human. This is good and many are becoming increasingly aware of our mental state. Mental illness is accepted now as a disorder like a physical disorder. Yet the stigma is still there because we are seen as weak if we share our struggle with our thoughts and emotions.
God is Spirit and He wants to commune with us. He does this through our spirit man. There is a whole world of the spirit that most of us reject because we do not see it. We want to sense our world because this is what makes sense and everything else is nonsense. Some of us have had our eyes opened to know that there is a spirit world and God is real. Jesus came to make us aware of His Father in Heaven so that we could also know Him. Now we realise that there is more to life than the earthly suit we live in. We are spirit beings on an earthly journey. God has come alive in us Christians and we live in the Spirit and walk by the Spirit. This is now the new reality. The old has passed away and the new has come. Come to Jesus and be saved and live in the new reality of life in the Spirit.
