Another new dress, another new place to eat, another new house, another new vacation spot, another new iPhone…there always seems to be an “another” of something that we cannot live without. The quest for something more and better seems to attack our senses regularly through friends, television, radio, internet, movies, etc. It comes upon us while shopping, exercising, riding in the car, watching commercials… wherever we are it seems to catch up with us.
Coaches and golfers are notorious for constantly looking for ANOTHER way to win. Whether it is a new play, new practice scheme or a new golf club, the insatiable desire to find the secret weapon is in their DNA.
It’s easy to find ourselves longing for better way out of life’s circumstances. The feeling of despair comes over us and we long for more direction, a clearer answer, another voice to satisfy our decision…ANOTHER way to learn and grow.
IT’S NOT ABOUT GETTING “YET ANOTHER” … BUT ABOUT POSSESSING THE “RIGHT ANOTHER”!
Jesus, our advocate before the Father, opened the door for ANOTHER advocate to walk with us as He left this earth…
I will ask the Father, and he will give you ANOTHER advocate to help you and be with you forever-- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you...But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. John 14:16.17 & 26
We do need ANOTHER to guide us in the right direction, to answer our heartfelt questions, to assist us in our decision making and to comfort us in our time of need. Since the role of the Holy Spirit includes teaching and reminding, we can set aside our self-reliant quest to find yet another way.
Dwelling with and within us the Holy Spirit opens the door of our hearts to the mind of Christ. Walking through this open door is our choice.
When one door closes, ANOTHER opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
Helen Keller
Blessings…as you choose the open door by relying on who Jesus promised us ANOTHER Advocate.
