We do battle in a sacred space
"There's a war between, guilt and grace, and they're fighting for, a sacred space, but I'm living proof, grace wins every time." These are some of the lyrics from a Matthew West song. They are empowering and affirming. The sacred space, it is the tug of war area, the one that we do battle in daily dear reader. How much guilt is interwoven into the fabric of your being? What if I told you that this is your accursed birth right? What if it is genetic, like your eye colour, your sex? The guilt gene. Would it be hard to imagine, hard to accept? How is it possible that a baby be born with this as a part of their make-up, as innocent and vulnerable as the babe is, fresh from the womb?
God encoded laws
Think of your guilt, your constant traveling companion, packed and ready to go where ever you go. Is this accurate, what you experience daily? Maybe you weren't born with it. Is it something you picked up along the way, from your parents, your religion, perhaps an adult that had influence on you in your youth? How the heck did it get there and what can you do, you wonder, to get rid of the damnable soul cling on? Let's look at another possibility. What if the guilt is a result of you being defiant, rejecting the God encoded laws that were woven into your being when He created you. What is your response to this possibility dear reader?
"This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds" (Hebrews 10:16). In researching this, I came across a startling article that had my heart and mind racing. Find it yourself, dear reader. It is called First Scientific Proof of God Found, by Dr. Richter DasMeerungeheuer written June 22nd, 2014.
Long ago, God had man write Hebrews 10:16 for posterity, and the compiled record of God Breathed words known as The Bible. Fast forward to modern times and man has found proof that within our coded DNA, repeated and embedded is a language, a translatable genetic code "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own" (Corinthians 6:19). You are not your own, you are not your own, you are not your own, encoded and repeated over and over again dear one. Here we come to a crossroads in our beliefs, our psyche, our acceptance that we are a created beings, each of us a temple of the Holy Spirit with Gods laws put in our hearts and written on our minds.
Struggling with guilt
It is not surprising that I struggle with guilt, because much of the time I do not act as though I belong to him.
What about you? Is guilt something you struggle with for the same reason? What does your life say about your relationship with God? Do you honour him or reject him as though he has no say in who you are?
You belong to him
You are not your own. You belong to him and your body has been telling you this since the day you were born. Science has caught up with what he told his people long ago, long before you walked the earth. I believe in grace, I believe that it wins when we stop fighting and allow him his rightful place in our hearts, in our minds.
What do you, dear reader, believe?
