What you respond to naturally is the call of God. You were regenerated at a key point, and what this means for you visible in your pleasant experiences. Some people are regenerated at official birth, in infancy, or as mature adults, but anyone can enjoy a profound experience in eternal salvation, not just those who have an extraordinary experience. What is important is that we are sincerely trusting Christ in the present moment. Some do not know when they were liberated, but we have been regenerated and given a new will. We respond appropriately to the everlasting gospel.What we once thought was right is now dead to us, and we have been given new life according to God's will. Our ability to make moral choices has not been eliminated but reborn. We choose to believe in Christ wholeheartedly because our new desires lead us to Him. These desires come from a spiritual knowledge of Christ that goes beyond mere intellect and touches the heart. As we come to understand more fully the spiritual significance of Christ's death and resurrection, we realize that before we were blind to the truth but now, through regeneration, we see the light of God's knowledge. We experience Christ in every way--mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually--and He becomes our everything. Our hope is in Him alone.The spiritual desires that are renewed within us cannot be grasped by the mind; they work in a way that is beyond our understanding. The supernatural nature of God, dwelling within us by the power of the Holy Spirit, is something that can only be experienced, not explained. As we grow deeper in sanctification, we come to know more of the mystery of the supernatural, but even then it will only be in our future experience in heaven that we will really understand it. Our spiritual senses are shrouded in the sacred mystery of the supernatural, and we intentionally do not focus on the inward workings of the creative faculties, because we are perplexed and do not think of spiritual senses.This is a very real struggle for many of us: between accepting that we are physical beings subject to mortal pain, and embracing the reality that we are spiritual beings with the power to transcend our carnal appetites. Christ, as a wholly man, identified with us in this struggle and showed us that it is possible to put our carnal appetites under control through meditation and prayer. The Spirit can help us to understand our experiences in this struggle, because we all have different weaknesses. The sensual part of our lives so often alarms us and makes us forget about the spiritual part of the eternal struggle. We do not like it when our moral weaknesses are exposed, but we need to remember that our emotions are just a part of our experience of pain. We should not devalue the mystical and supernatural work that we can do, just because we are carnal creatures.What we're doing when we devalue cultural insensitivity in our spiritual experience is maintaining our protected freedom in Christ, and because we're exhausted from doing this natural work, we may have emotional reactions of personal guilt and blame. However, these reactions come from not having a holistic view of the human condition, which includes peculiar weaknesses in both the bodily and spiritual senses. We grow weary in earnest prayer not just because we are struggling spiritually, but also because we are trying to exercise our material senses for the spiritual exercise of contemplative prayer.Our Father stoops down to our appropriate level, and offers to mightily relieve bodily personifications of imaginative faculties. He under-girds our delicate state of our creative faculties by adequately communicating the eternal nature.What we are most aware of is our inward spiritual answer to our fragile senses. By inflaming our ardent desires communicated personification. Once we genuinely enjoy eternal experience, we are miraculously transformed into His image.
