The Christian life is so mysterious and "complex" beyond understanding. But our God has made it simple to experience and enjoy just like breathing and drinking. This is referred to as the simplicity that is in Christ. 2 Cor. 11:3. The Lord is rich to all who call upon His name.
I experience the Spirit in my morning watch. Nothing is quite so precious as Jesus in the morning. I like verse two. It is nothing, [absolutely nothing] I do, His mercy is just upon me. It is God’s free gift. I always thought the free gift was just initial salvation. Now I see it is God Himself coming as the Spirit to me. This is true grace. It is sufficient for my whole life!
We know God subjectively by the Spirit. As we know Him more and more, He becomes the most precious thing we have.
