“”Undeceived” is the term C.S. Lewis used to explain milestone experiences of awareness when deception is exposed. Haze give way to clarity, and darkness is replaced with light.” This is a quote from a good book I’m reading from Jennifer Rothschild “Self Talk, Soul Talk”.
I have had some serious “undeceived” moments lately. a reminder to my soul to be fully aware, awake, and tuned in. Deception is so subtle and we risk forfeiting all that is most precious! Things are going amazingly well with staying on task with eating and exercising. I have completed four consistent days of exercise and am feeling sooo sore! I believe the soreness I feel is one of the most amazing feelings in life. Yes, I know I’m weird, but it makes me feel alive. No matter how old I am, it reminds me that my muscles need attention.
The more amazing undeceived moment I have had is a spiritual awakening from God. A few weeks ago I awoke in the night with a sense of urgency that God is about to do something BIG? Not sure what but it was an overwhelming feeling, to say the least! Well I awoke again this morning with the same urgency! I believe we as believers need to “awake”, stop being deceived by things around us. The harvest is ripe and souls are going to hell all around us. I believe the unstable situation of the world today is God telling His church to AWAKE!! We have much to do and our financial comfort has nothing to do with it! What has God been teaching you personally? Wake-up and listen to Him and tell others around you the Truth!
Our pastor is preparing to teach on Jonah and I believe that is no coincidence. In our women’s Bible study we are about to study about the prophecy of Daniel. Coincidence, I think not. Those of you in other parts of the world, what has God been teaching there? The same? His Word is alive and we need to be listening. Get excited, God is moving and don’t you want to be part of what He is doing? He coming back for His church soon, let’s be ready.
