I’ve been thinking of the ministry of God’s Spirit in my life. Being raised both Catholic and Baptist, the Holy Spirit did not get much credit or attention in my early walk as a Christ follower. He (not an “it”) was the lesser person in the Godhead as I tried to be faithful without honoring Him. I not only quenched and grieved Him, I ignored Him! How very sad for both of us.
Today I am very alert and aware of just how very active the Holy Spirit is in our lives. I even asked Him to guide my thoughts as I write this to you my friends. Let me encourage you to talk to Him even as you talk to The Father and The Son.
Thank Him.
Surrender to Him.
Ask Him to fill you this day and every day.
Even greater, ask Him to forgive you for neglecting His gift(s) He placed within you, so He could live out His life through you. My desire for all of us is to become “mighty in Spirit.”
Be blessed of the Holy Spirit is my thought for you this moment!
