I believe with all my heart in the Holy Spirit and that He moves in the lives and hearts of His people. It is expressly written in the Word of God and I will never dispute that. The workings and moving of the Spirit cannot be comprehended with human intellect, rather they must be taken by faith. God in His mercy understands our feeble attempts to move under and in tandem with Him. We may get our humanity in the way, our emotions may rule from time to time but this not diminish that Christ shared the Comforter would come and dwell in us. The evidence of that indwelling is speaking in other tongues, His fruit living in us, peace, hope, joy, comfort.

Once again, I’m keeping my mouth shut. I don’t my sputum to land in anyone’s eye.

I am glad you are writing about it.

To be honest, I have truly found a relationship with Christ like I have never experienced before. Ever since I started to truly walk with God, I have not once “spoke in tongues.” I don’t know why, I just know I haven’t.

Do I believe I have the Holy Spirit? Absolutely. But this “tongues” business isn’t the pinnacle of my focus on Christ. I get so much more not speaking in tongues and just talking plain English to God when I read His Word.

Weird! It works! Because He speaks right back to me when I do this.
