 DAY 3: The Ruach

The teacher took me to an open desert plain. It was a windy day, so windy it was almost violent.

“What is it like to walk against the wind?” he asked.

“It becomes harder to walk,” I replied.

“In the language of Scripture,” he said, “the word for wind is ruach. But it has another meaning; it also means the Spirit. In Hebrew, the Holy Spirit is the Holy Wind. In the same way, when you walk against the Spirit, it creates a drag on your life. Everything you do becomes harder. Now try something else. Turn around.”

So I did. I was now walking in the direction of the wind’s blowing.

“And what was that like?” he asked.

“It was much easier,” I said.

“You were walking in the direction of the wind,” he said. “And the wind helped you walk. It moved you ahead. It made your walking easier. So it is with the Spirit. The Spirit will move you forward. And then everything you do, that you must do, will become easier. For those who walk in the Spirit…the Wind is at their back.”

The Mission: What part of your life is against the direction of the Spirit? Today, turn it around and start walking with the Wind at your back.
