In Renovation of the Heart, Dallas Willard states his belief that the soul is also made up of three parts: mind, will and emotions. <br /><br />Willard says our job is to surrender all these to God, to cooperate and allow Him to bring all these parts of us into unity with His divine order, tuned to Him and ruled by the Holy Triune Being, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and His Triune Way of Love, Truth and Life (John 14:6) without wavering, hesitating, nothing held back.<br /><br />This is redemption - and it could be described as a kind of evolving process. Redemption is certainly a discipline, the re-training and re-orientation of the thoughts, words, reasoning, decision making and discernment, emotional impulses - all our capacities, responses and actions. <br /><br />As Dallas Willard says, it is lifelong journey, an endurance race, not a sprint. There are places where the road gets difficult and costly, where periodic sacrifices or divestitures of baggage may be required to continue and yet it is all worth it - because God Himself is our provision, medicine, healing balm, food and drink, light, map, path, defensive weapon, friend and companion, fuel, repairman, gyroscope and the one who tunes and reads it. He is the one who directs us to evolve and helps us to do it. He is our rest, joy and peace, the destination and the prize.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
