I'd never asked myself that question until this afternoon in church. We were coming to the end of our worship time - good worship time - and were asked to close our eyes (mine already were) and ask the Holy Spirit what He wanted to say to us... and then listen. Normally when I ask this question I do get a "wordy" response, of some kind. This time there were no words communicated - just a smile - one that I couldn't actually see still but felt. And even though I couldn't see this smile, it communicated so much to me...
I AM Love
I AM Joy
I AM Peace
I AM Patience
I AM Goodness
I AM Kindness
I AM Gentleness
I AM Faithfulness
I AM Self-Control
And then this thought occurred to me... I never knew I could hear a smile!
That's rrrrrrreal sweet. We survive on tender moments like that with the Lord. They deposit into our heart, and we hold on to them when things get dry.
