"An Unutterable Beatitude"

"Where the Holy Spirit is permitted to exercise His full sway in a redeemed heart, the progression is likely to be as follows:  First, voluble praise, in speech, prayer or witness.  Then, when the crescendo rises beyond the ability of studied speech to express, comes song. When song breaks down under the weight of Glory, then comes silence, where the soul, held in deep fascination, feels itself blessed with an unutterable beatitude."   --A.W. Tozer

This has been my experience, as well as others I know who have been blessed to worship "where the Holy Spirit is permitted to exercise His full sway." (See the post He is not a Tame Lion.)  If you find yourself dry as a bone, perhaps you have not had this opportunity, at least recently.  Seek it...seek Him, as 'in a dry, weary land without water.'  The Ruach Hakodesh, the Holy Spirit, is Manna to the soul, spirit, and even to the body.  Put on your Bride sneakers and run after Him, and you'll find yourself very still in the midst of an unutterable beatitude.

  1. Amen.We need more silence before God's Altar to hear His voice, to feel His presence. (Silence - no talk, no music, real silence. HE will bless it, HE will fill it.)

  2. I have never been a part of a blog. I was at Tres Arroyos this past weekend and got a card about your blog. I was wondering how I or if I can get notifications when you post. Please excuse my ignorance but I must be honest in that I am clueless, lol. Thank you

  3. There are two ways to follow my blog: 1) by putting your email in the ‘widget’ box in the upper right or 2j by following via Google+ (also upper right). If you click ‘follow via Google+ ‘ and don’t have an account, it will help you make one. You can create a gmail address, if you like, just for this blog and for other applications which offer Google sign-ones. Welcome to Morning Manna! Wasn’t Tres Arroyos a treat?
