SPIRITUAL BLOCKS


In a particular forest, springtime sees great quantities of logs move swiftly down the rivers. Sometimes a jam occurs. Then the timber-worker seeks the log which is blocking the wooden tide. When he finds that key log, he jerks it out of place and the flood moves onward with its cargo.

There is such a thing as a spiritual log jam. We lose our religious enthusiasm, interest in personal devotions wanes, an hour in the Lord's house becomes a bore and the Bible becomes a silent Book. Then we must find the key log that is choking the flood of spiritual life. It may be an unforgiving spirit, or jealousy, or hypocrisy. Jerk the obstruction out of place and spiritual vitality will surge onward. (Taken from ToDay).

Eph 4:31-32 says: “Get rid of your bitterness, hot tempers, anger, loud quarreling, cursing, and hatred. Be kind to each other, sympathetic, forgiving each other as God has forgiven you through Christ.”
