This morning I cut myself shaving...(some may laugh, as I have roughly 27 hairs on my face)...1st thought was, "gotta change the blade, must be dull"...then, almost immediately came, " for the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edge sword," into my brain...the rest I had to look up:... "and peircing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
...how fascinating that in our FLESH world we are cut and injured most by that which is DULL...sure the sharp knives and other things cut too; but you have a greater chance of an accident with a UN-SHARP tool...WHY?...because U expect it to be sharp and then press extra hard because it's not cutting..then..OOPS , comes the slip, then the damage...GOD IS THE OPPOSITE: His sword never needs to be sharpened, but simply put into the motion of cutting; being used...
Q: where have I not allowed the sword to cut in my life?
Q: where is He cutting now in my life and in the body of believers?
