the Crossroads

While riding through the mountains today, I was given a glimpse of spiritual erosion.

What I saw in my spirit, was this, when we get away from the Lord, whether it is from too much in our lives, (busyness).. it takes away our feasting on His word, our prayer time, and our fellowship.

Take a waterfall for instance, though beautiful, as rainfall fills the land, soaking the ground, a little soil gives way, and being in the mountains, you really can see what "erosion" does. It exposes the rocky ground below in dry times, it is (barren dry ground) dry, like our spirit, when we get away from the word, prayer, and fellowship.

When we leave our Lord for any purpose, we become like the waterfall..beautiful for a season, then the sin sets in, and we are exposed, because we have let our spirit erode.
