What Are You Satisfying? The Spirit or the Flesh?

     A lot of the things we are constantly trying to attain and needs that we are trying to have met are temperal and pertaining to the flesh.  What have you done lately to solidify the prosperity and condition of your soul and spirit?  Psalms 78:39 states, "For He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.  Not to say that the flesh is not important because for sure it is, however it seems to me like the writer of Psalms is describing the flesh as disposable.  Yes, we may hurt, we may cry, we may even be subjected to certain health conditions that are beyond our control.  All of these things can attribute to the welfare of out bodily flesh.  While you are constantly trying to soothe the flesh, what are you doing to make sure that your spirit is just as comfortable?
     The Bible states that the flesh is like the wind.  Now if any of you are familiar with the wind, you know that it blows from place to place wandering around with no particular destination in sight.  Our flesh is very similar.  We change our mind with every new trend that comes and then when it is over, we are on to the next.  We are constantly wavering and going back and forth with decisions.  The spirit should be different. Our spirit should be centered and constantly at peace.  Not being able to be moved when something new and appearing to be better comes along.  The second part of the scripture describes the flesh as passing away and never coming again.  When we die, our flesh will be buried and never see this side of Earth again.  However, our spirit will live on.  The question is where?  Your spirit will come again and how are you preparing for this time when the flesh passes away never to come again but the spirit will remain?
     I would hope that this blog prompts you to think about your daily life and whether you are satisfying the spirit or the flesh.  I am not here to judge only to give my thoughts and hopefully promote thoughts of your own on the topics discussed.

Praying Blessings Upon You All,
