The Spirit Within

I could not imagine living my life without the Holy Spirit. I wonder about the people back in the day that lived according to the law. The law, could never be followed perfectly, it was too hard. The Spirit within us makes it possible to not only be set free from the law but gives us the opportunity to live according to the plans the Father has for us. The Holy Spirit gives us what the law could not. We are made righteous through Jesus and justified by our faith in the Father. The law is now written on our hearts.

Conviction plays a key role in my life. There has been different times throughout my journey that I have felt myself veering from the narrow way.  As I look back at those times, I see that the role of conviction resembles a “God Wink” of how the Father intervenes in my life to show or remind me of who He is and who I am as His daughter. This “God Wink” or revelation, becomes known to me through the Holy Spirit that resides within me. Until I do something about it, that feeling will not leave me. I thank God that I can go to Him, repent and ask for forgiveness to be made new. God knows we are not perfect and I am thankful that He is patient and loves me. He loves you too.

The blessing is the grace and mercy of the Lord and without the price that our Savior Jesus paid; we would still be living under the law. I will never be able to pay Jesus back for what He did for me but I can live my life complimenting Him. I can learn to be a mirror image of the Son. Jesus is my example to live by and with the Holy Spirit in me; I can be the light for the one in front of me; moving forward running the race, helping to finish the work of the One who gave His life for me. Thank you, Father for Your Son and the life You have given me, to carry onward. Thank You for Your Spirit in me and for setting me free from the law. I will do my best to make You shine in all the days You give me. May You be glorified, I love you.

As you reflect upon my personal experience today, may you take some time to write down what is being revealed to you. In this moment, go to the Father in prayer and ask Him to show you anything that is not presently being revealed to you. Ask Him for forgiveness and to be made new again so that you may walk according to the purposes that He has for you in this life. Finally give Him all of the glory, honor and praise by lifting him up in exaltation as you close your time with Him.

 May you find an everlasting peace in knowing that as a child of God you can go to Him for all things. May His grace and mercy cover you and may you walk boldly into the destiny that He has prepared for you!

Come Holy Spirit
