Dear God-tracker
GOD-TRACKING IS A LIFE SEASONED WITH THE POWER OF HOLY SPIRIT
I remember my first attempt at cooking a curry. Before I go any further, one thing you need to understand is, I’m no cook! Yet, with the council and direction of my talented wife, I once boldly attempted to cook up a dish fit for the Raj of India. The ingredients: sunflower oil, beef braising steak, onions, chopped tomatoes, garlic cloves, chillies, fresh root ginger, cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, natural yoghurt and a handful freshly chopped coriander. Hmmm. I dare say it turned out quite okay.
I fully understand that not everyone who reads this may be a lover of Indian cuisine. However, I’m sure you’ll agree that most of the ingredients listed above would make for a very fragrant and seasoned dish. Garlic, chillies, cumin, coriander along with the others have strong flavours and certainly influence the dish to produce its distinctive curry flavour. However, if I were to remove these distinct ingredients I’d be left with sunflower oil, beef braising steak, onions and chopped tomatoes. If I cooked only these components of the recipe my splendid curry would end up nothing more than an average stew.
As we track the highways and byways of Christian living we often find ourselves in situations that test the flavour of our faith. The scripture tells us to make the most of every opportunity by allowing our interaction with the world to be seasoned as with salt. It also says that we are the salt of the earth, which means that we reveal the flavour of God to the world around us. In my own strength I would find it impossible to reveal God’s grace and power to my world but when I allow my witness be seasoned with the power of God’s Holy Spirit I become salt and light in a decaying and dark world. Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would give us the words we need to speak when we’re put on the spot. Therefore, make sure your conversation is seasoned with the conscious presence of the Holy Spirit every time you find yourself in a position of conflict or are called upon to share your faith in this world. Only his power and grace will turn your humdrum stew into a fragrant curry.

Quote of the Week
Sample of Dudley’s Fave Quotes
“Having the answers is not essential to living. What is essential is the sense of God’s presence during dark seasons of questioning.” --- Ravi Zacharias
Don’t Give Up, Look Up!
Look up and Fix Your Eyes on Jesus!
I surrender my conversations and interactions to you and seek your words when I’m called upon to share my faith
“Heavenly Father, I realise that it is only the fellowship and presence of your Holy Spirit in my life that will produce the seasoning I need to be your witness or be able to face conflict. You, O Holy Spirit are the salt of my being. Help me to rest in your inspiration and instruction as I interact with those around me. Only your power is the source of my strength. Only your grace is the source of my ability. I surrender my conversations and interactions to you and seek your words when I’m called upon to share my faith. You, O Lord, are the essence that gives my life fragrance. Amen.”
