Dual Mindedness


One side pokes out at the space with high contrast but has no mouth. The other side is caged in, mouth open but no depth of statement can happen with that mouth. We swivel on our axis and can easily turn from one side to the other.

When we come seeking God, He may speak to us, but our double nature holds us from accepting His word. What is our true response to His prompting? We often are in denial that we even have a problem with what God is trying to tell us. We avoid His truths if they don’t fit our past experience, or if they seem too simple or hurtful. We want it our way, but we hope it’s His way, and faced with the difference we can’t decide, so we vacillate.

How often we just slowly wander away from Him in a moment of his speaking. We may not even realize that we are in denial of His position. Our double mindedness prevents us from going deeper, and we stay at our current level or slide backwards, .......... to reticent to accept his communication.
