Looking at the SELF and not the body and being honest with your SELF about what you have to share and what you lack ain’t easy.
A long time ago, a children’s church teacher went around the room and said, “You have a brown house, you have a brown house, you have a tan house, you have a golden house, I have a brown house.” I finally understand what she meant. It’s our housings that allow our SELF to interact/interlock with other SELFS (yes, “selfs” and not “selves”).
The SELF (or the spiritman) wants to serve God. The body wants to serve itself, and the mind is torn between the two… At least, that seems to be the case for me.
