Flow vs. Spontaneity from Donna Trent
In describing how we sense our hearts, I love the word "flow." God allowed me to see it in 1979, and it accurately describes what the Holy Spirit feels like within us as He moves. "Bubble up" is another neat descriptive expression which we get from the Hebrew word naba, which is translated as "prophecy." Another word I frequently use is "spontaneity." I talk of a spontaneous thought, rather than an analytical, connected thought. However, as you will see from Donna Trent’s article below, our personal definitions and conceptions of words such as "spontaneous" can interfere with the revelation the Lord is giving us. In that case, we need to allow Him the opportunity to reframe the offending word so we see it from His perspective.
