Spirit So Precious to God

Good morning! So I was listening to a teaching by Joni Erickson Tada, and was so encouraged and inspired by her. You see, she is a quadriplegic and a recent cancer survivor who also has chronic severe pain. She talked about how she had become bitter early on, and was not easy to please. To the point that her husband had become depressed and burnt out. That was until she finally realized that her soul needed healing more than her physical body did. She turned back to God fully and allowed Him to transform her into a gentle and quiet spirit. She began encouraging her husband and letting him know how thankful she was to Him and what a great job he was doing to care for her. It's amazing what a little encouragement can do for the men in our lives and what it can do for our overall peace and joy. Here is the link, if you'd like to listen for yourself :) I'm sure my account may fall very short and God may have something else that He wants you to glean from it ;) Joni's teaching
