\u2019n Gewese pastoor het iewers gelees dat ek geskryf het dat \u2019n mens deur sy gees in hierdie w\u00eareld wen.  Sy het kontak gemaak en gevra waar is \u2019n mens se gees, is dit in jou hart gele\u00eb?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy het oor \u2019n lang tydperk groot traumatiese gebeure beleef.\u00a0 As moeilikheid oor \u2019n lang tyd kom en baie ernstig van aard is, dan word God baie ver en klein in jou gemoed.\u00a0 Moeilikheid daarenteen word groot soos onoorkomlike berge.\u00a0 Dit is soos die blinde man wie se kierie gebreek het en ges\u00ea het: \u201cNergens meer grond.<\/em>\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ek probeer kortliks antwoord gee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Ons weet nie waar jou gees regtig gele\u00eb is nie.  Veral omdat ons in \u2019n w\u00eareld leef wat steeds meer \u2019n sintuiglik-waarneembare w\u00eareld geword het, wat glo dat net wat ons sien, is waar: \u201csien is glo<\/em>\u201d en rasionele mense wat glo dat alleen wat ons wetenskaplik kan bewys, is waar.  Die \u201cBo-w\u00eareld<\/em>\u201d, God se w\u00eareld, die w\u00eareld van die Gees, het van die toneel verdwyn.  Ons het arm daarin geword, ons het nie in die moderne w\u00eareld meer vensters \u201cboontoe<\/em>\u201d nie.  En as ons soontoe probeer dink verduister die moderne w\u00eareld se idees, die groot moeilikheid, en ons eie moeilikheid, ons vensters – dit word donker gerook.  Ons is arm en sukkelend in die w\u00eareld van die Gees.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a>
Venster na Bo<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Jesus het aan die Samaritaanse vrou by die put ges\u00ea: \u201cGod is Gees, en die wat Hom aanbid, moet Hom deur die Gees en in waarheid (Jesus) aanbid.<\/em>\u201d (Joh 4:24).  Jesus laat die aksent val dat in aanbidding, sal ons kontak met God hoofsaaklik \u2019n geestelike gebeure wees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nikodemus wat \u2019n Fariseer en lid van die Joodse Raad was asook \u2019n duidelike godsdienstige, het in die nag na Jesus gekom. \u00a0Aan hom het Jesus ges\u00ea:\u00a0 \u201cDit verseker Ek jou: “As iemand nie opnuut gebore word nie, kan hy die koninkryk van God nie sien nie.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0 Hy kon nie dink hoe \u2019n ou man \u2019n tweede keer gebore kon word nie.\u00a0 Dit is toe dat Jesus hom antwoord: \u201cDit verseker Ek jou: \u2018As iemand nie uit water en Gees gebore word nie, kan hy nie in die koninkryk van God kom nie<\/em>.\u2019\u201d\u00a0 Oor sy verbasing het Jesus aan hom verduidelik: \u201cWat uit die mens gebore is, is mens; en wat uit die gees gebore is, is gees.\u00a0 Die wind waai waar hy wil.\u00a0 Jy hoor sy geluid, maar jy weet nie waar hy vandaan kom en waar hy heen gaan nie.\u00a0 So gebeur dit met elkeen wat uit die Gees gebore is.<\/em>\u201d (Joh 3: 3-8).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ons hart is \u2019n wonderlike orgaan in ons liggaam, \u2019n fantastiese pomp wat vir jare dag en nag pomp, maar God se woonplek waar weergeboorte plaasgevind, is nie daar gele\u00eb nie.  Ons weet nie waar nie, maar iewers in ons is ons gees; ons is immers na God se beeld en gelykenis geskape en is ook as sy verteenwoordigers geskape.  Ons is meer as vlees en bloed.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit is in ons gees waar God ons verander, dit is daar waar ons eerstens sy teenwoordigheid ervaar, waar weergeboorte en later die doping in die Heilige Gees, plaasvind.  Daar ervaar ons God se werklikheid, sy grenslose (ver bo ons begrip, ons rasionele) krag en sy liefde in ons.  (Sien Paulus se twee gebede in Efesi\u00ebrs 1 en 3 waarin hy vra wat die Heilige Gees in ons moet werk.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit is vanaf hierdie werkplek van God in ons, wat Hy ons deur die Heilige Gees rig en lei.  Dit is hier waar Hy ons sterk en wys maak, en ons meer as oorwinnaars maak in \u2019n rowwe w\u00eareld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wanneer die gelowige in tale praat terwyl die Gees van die Here oor hom\/haar kom,<\/a> moet hulle hard, en duidelik, en denkend praat.\u00a0 Hulle moet die gesprek en die inhoud belewend ervaar sodat hulle die inhoud kan verstaan en kan ondervind.\u00a0 Paulus het geskryf dat hy wat in \u2019n taal praat homself bou (Sien 1 Kor. 14, 18).\u00a0 Hulle moet byvoorbeeld die emosies ervaar wat God se grootheid en liefde meebring sodat hulle sterk, vrolik en wys kan word.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Christen wen deur sy gees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Groetnis<\/p>\n\n\n\n
