Day 9~Poor in Spirit~The Character of a Disciple




The first step to wholeness is humility.
June 18th the good LORD brought me to the 'Freedom House'....Looking back I remember going to a Sunday night service and we were praying for the spirit of brokenness....I remember looking at my brother John Constantine, and asking why we were doing that when I felt broken already!!...Learning that Pride was the issue. I wanted to be a humble person.
You and I both have heard sermons about how ‘Brokenness’ is ‘good’ for us. How it softens our hearts and makes us sensitive and responsive to the Holy Spirit and how it develops spiritual maturity and character. And Psalms 51:17 is always quoted to support this teaching.
Psa. 51:17(KJV) The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

As I started 2 mature little by little, one of the next important prayers in my new walk was asking God to remove my survival skills so I could only rely on Him!!!
Continuing to seek and praise God has been the greatest thing I have ever done, Learning something new constantly!!!
