More Spiritual Growth

"Henry Ward Beecher said man is a three storied being. He may be more than that, but he is at least three stories high or low. There is the first story. That is the basement, the ground floor, where we spend most of our time. There appetite rules and passions crawl. We are so made that the daily cares of our physical selves require much attention. Above is the second story. That is where we live intellectually. Some of us live up there more than do others. But if we spend even a brief time in that pleasant room each day, it gives us strength and happiness. The third story is the best part of ourselves... the highest story. And do you know there are some who seldom live in that part of the house? They put in it no furnishings and treat it as if it were a useless room of their life. It is the tower room where we live in kinship with God." *******
