Yesterday morning as I got ready for church the Lord used something very simple to speak to my heart. He used toilet paper. (Remember I teach Kindergarten so the I think in simple terms).
My bathroom was out of toilet paper and I walked to our other upstairs bathroom and it to was out of toilet paper. I thought to myself, "There has to be some somewhere in this house." I went downstairs and out into the garage and there was a new package from Costco. In other words, we had tons of toilet paper.
I took it upstairs and distributed it to all the bathrooms and filled each room with plenty of paper. It was then the Lord used this simple thing to remind me of His Truth.
He told me that often my life seemed to be void of the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes I seem to be running on empty. But the truth is when I was saved the Holy Spirit came into my life. Often I'm afraid I've left Him in the garage of my life and not kept each room of my life filled with His presence.
I left for church after asking that He fill every area of my heart with His presence and to forgive me for often leaving Him in the garage of my life. After doing that, I was ready for worship.
