Prodigal:  Who is that pretty young lady?

Me:  She is my niece.

Prodigal:  She is pretty but she is so skinny she ain’t even fryin’ size.

Me:  It does not matter her size because I love her.

 

This come from the book Overcoming Spiritual Blindness by James Gills, M.D.

 

According to scripture, the natural man (or woman) remains rooted and tied to this world.  He has not experienced the realities of God’s spiritual realm, nor is he aware of the significance and greatness of those realities.  The things of God are foolishness to him because, without having his spirit made alive to God, he pays attention only to his sense perceptions.

 

Prayer will help our spirit become aware of the spiritual realm.

 

1 Corinthians 16:18

For they have refreshed my spirit and yours:  therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
