Deja Vu Bible Style
After a long drought, I think I have something worth posting.
Does anyone else see a wierd, deja vu sort of thing about studying the Bible?
I was out of town for a couple of weeks, and while we were gone I started reading an old testament story, then Mike preaches on it Sunday.
I work on a text to present it in bible study, and find out that several of my friends are studying the same text, at the same time.
We go to visit a church while traveling, and the lesson is on the same text I'm preparing for Life Team Sunday night.
I decide to email friends in Dallas and mention I've been thinking about them and a scripture that applies to them, and they tell me they have been thinking about the same text.
It seems to happen over and over, I'm sure at least 20 times in the past few months.
How's that for wierd?
On the other hand...
what if the Spirit leads us to things without us knowing it, and we're SUPPOSED to be going in the same directions from time to time?

Calvin, I think you are right...it is the Spirit that is leading us to certain scripture at certain times...sometimes together and sometimes separately.

The same thing happened to me yesterday and today. The woman who cleans my office is such a vibrant spirit. We often are on the same page spiritually.

Calvin, you always have something worth posting. I think you just usually don't have time to post it. I miss your wisdom when you are gone. I'm glad you got to be in town this week. It will be interesting to see where you are led.
