Verse
Since this is the kind of life we have chosen, the life of the Spirit, let us make sure that we do not just hold it as an idea in our heads or a sentiment in our hearts, but work out its implications in every detail of our lives.
Thought
The followers of Jesus have chosen to live life in the Spirit — not of God’s commands written in stone or on pages, but God’s will written on their hearts and shown in their lives by the transforming work of the Spirit. This is Paul’s reminder that follows his description of the fruit of the Spirit. Since the Spirit is God’s gift to lead us in our dance of grace, then we must let him take the lead in this dance and order our steps in every area of our lives!
Prayer
O Holy Father, O Savior Son of God, and O Holy Spirit, come and make your home in me. Work your will in every aspect of my life as I seek to honor you and live out your will in every aspect of my life. Amen.
