Your Inner priest. Your inner beast

Tweet

Within our makeup, we should set apart a part of ourselves to serve as an inner priest to God. This inner priest will then remind us to always act in the service of God, at all times in our lives. This inner priest takes on some of our personality, to be itself, and it will take its directions from our soul too. This is what God told us in Exodus, chapter 19, verse 6, when he said this to the Israelites. "You will be for me a kingdom of priests." We should all serve as priests in our life to help bring others to God, then. We are to guide and lead them, instructively from our inner priest, while loving them from our heart, at the same time. This ensures that our inner fire remains enthusiastically alive in our life, as we dedicate it to serving God, and bringing others to God. We should cultivate this inner priest and bring it to life within ourselves, rather than live from our inner beast instead. An inner beast if left out of control, will rule our mind, and our lives. "The will is a beast of burden. If God mounts it, it wishes and goes as God wills; if Satan mounts it, it wishes and goes as Satan wills; Nor can it choose its rider... the riders contend for its possession." Martin Luther, (1483 to 1546) a German priest, and theologian, said this. Develop your inner priest, and let God control your inner beast for you.
