Loose lips sink ships. Can't that be a good thing?
Submarines are built to withstand large amounts of aquatic pressure as well as a certain extent of artillery blast. Sailors take refuge within their hulls for months or even years at a time to withstand the obvious killer surge of high-pressure ocean water.
Military Submarines are nearly always equipped with some form of weaponry for defense. Bottom line, they are prepared to do whatever it takes to keep the water out.
Sound familiar spiritually speaking?
Ever find yourself subconsciously doing whatever you can to keep the conviction of God's presence out of sight and mind. Lately, I've been realizing that I put up this same safe guard in times where the penetrating presence of God is most concentrated or high-pressured if you will.
I've sat in worship services with a submarine mentality: nothing in, nothing out
It’s as if I expect God’s boundless glory to be confined to the comfortable dimensions of my humanity.
God's presence is piercing; once the outer exterior is compromised it's a flood. Let's go for it.
