Pressures and His Spirit

8/25/2015

1 Comment

 
"No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.  By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit." -I John 4:12-13 (NASB)
I admit that as my daughter prepares to go off to school, I am a little nervous.  There are all of the nagging questions about her adjusting and fitting in with a new teacher and new classmates, but there are also concerns about the pressures that come from being part of a group, even if the group is kindergarten.  I hope and pray that my daughter is strong enough to stand up for what she knows is right.

In our "grown-up" lives we face challenges and pressures, too.  The world has certain pressures that attempt to push us away from what is right.  We may even hear the question, "How do we know what is right?"  We have God's Word to help us know what is right.  We can know His love and we can love one another.  We also know what is right because God has given us part of His Spirit.  When the world starts to pressure us, we need to go back to that part of God's Spirit that dwells in us and live in His love, glory, and righteousness!


When you feel the world pushing you around, find God's Spirit that dwells in you and keeps you on the right track!

Prayer:
Dear God-

Thank You for Your Spirit that can help me to know right and wrong.  Help me to show Your love to others so we can all dwell in Your love, glory, and righteousness forever.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
