Listen for the humming

Wednesday November 30th 1 Corinthians 1: 7Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. Every congregation is given all the spiritual gifts it needs to be a vessel for God’s love and grace. What gets in the way is the nasty way we keep pushing our gifts rather than the gifts God has given us. A sailboat can fight against the wind and make some headway, but it is a thing of beauty when catches full sail and gets up on step. At that moment it becomes what it was intended to be from its very conception and the sails and the ropes literally hum with excitement. God intends something like that for us also. It happens when we stop fighting and turn and let the Holy Spirit catch our sails. That humming we hear is the angels singing.
