We are all motivated and guided through life by something. People want to believe that they are being different and unique but at the end of the day we are all subject to our human nature. Our human nature can tend to be SELFISH. This is why we need a Saviour. To SAVE US FROM OURSELVES.
In the years after the WW2, to look at our study on art and creativity and society this century, many were still influenced by a desire to study the nature of the individual and his expression of particular emotions. “Automatism’ was a style that influenced many painters, particularly Jackson Pollock. This was to let go of the will and be led, often by wrong influences, to produce random form and pattern. This is significant in our study of the context of society at the time. To use this as an example it brings to mind a larger subject of interest.
To discover what people are led by one can look at the fruit it produces. In art of this time it led to problems within the lives of these painters and society. Problems such as a general despair and fear.
The fruit of the flesh is listed in Galatians. It might be useful to look at the FRUIT that your life is displaying at the moment. Jesus was led by the Spirit to be tempted to prove that He wanted nothing but His Fathers will.
THE NATURE OF THE SPIRIT IS SELFLESS... THE FLESH IS SELFISH. We have been conditioned to believe that if we look deeply inward we will discover answers to our condition... the only ANSWER IS A NEW HEART.
Now is not the time to got caught up in looking inward. The healing that we need is in being SELFLESS. Being selfless is only possible through the Spirit of God.
TEST THE SPIRITS AT THE MOMENT; but most importantly LOOK AT THE FRUIT.
