Yesterday I found myself pondering the words around 
the oneness of those who have sexual intercourse 
and the oneness of the spirit of God inhabiting me. 
1Cor 6:12-20 talks about this Spiritual / Physical reality. 

My body is actually created by God for
His indwelling presence    
designed by the creator to 'fit together'
2 into 1
and Paul warns me not to unite the 'members of Christ'
to others in sexual immorality.....
Becoming One with those who have no right to my body.....

This morning I was reading from Exodus 25 the items Moses lists
- what to make out of what material - for the Temple.
The Temple
The Place where God resided
before He took up residence in
redeemed people.
Me.
Those whose Bodies that are purchased
and made pure
by the blood of the slain lamb...
made Holy
so that Holy God can reside.

and I was wondering
what parts of the 'old temple'
candelabras and incense burners and alter etc
are in me?
For Moses made the temple from a vision of heavenly items
The true temple
and
God made me to be the receptacle of His Spirit
Tabernacle for Him
His place of abiding...

Hmm....

Is the alter....
my heart?

Is the mercy seat
some place in my brain
that God's Spirit resides....

Hmmm...

Lord,
This is mysterious
How you have made me
specifically
and
strategically
to
be inhabited by You...
This morning
Right now.
2 in 1

I am in awe.
Yes.
