This physical body vs spirit
I haven't told this story in a long time, however many of my friends were there the night it happened.
I was having a little get together with girlfriends, we were having cocktails, food and the usual talk girls tend to have, my 2 yr old daughter was lying in my lap, when all of a sudden she looked up at me and said " I remember when Jesus brought me to you."
The room got so quiet that yes you could of heard a pin drop, I looked at my daughter and smiled and said "when did Jesus bring you to me?"
She touched my face and said " He put me in my body when you touched my cheek"
After she was born and wrapped in a blanket they laid her little crying body on my chest, I touched her cheek and said "It's ok Lydia, mom is here." At that moment this crying baby stopped crying and looked me straight in the eye and smiled.
When my little girl described being put in her body at that very moment I knew how profoundly different this "body" is from spirit, as a matter of fact I realized right then and there this body is merely a functioning tool the spirit brings to life.
Perhaps sharing this with others will help them too with such hard emtions about the physical body, it is merely a vessel for use right now the spirit lives before it comes here and after.......compassion is easier when you know this.
