and we follow.

He directs……

and we obey.

He organizes……

and we show up.

He plans…….

and we pray.

He makes it happen……

as we watch and join him in what he’s doing.

He rustles through the leaves of the tree of our life.  We hear him.  We see him.

He is always moving among us,

turning on light bulbs in our heads as we suddenly understand something for the first time.  He’s great at orchestrating epiphanies!

He knows us and loves us and intercedes for us when we don’t know what to say.

He leads us to the truth.

But he doesn’t let us stay there……because there is more truth.

And then more.

He convicts us when we are straying from the truth.  This doesn’t feel good…..

until later, after we have repented and turned back to God,

and we realize we’re a giant step closer to God.  That feels GREAT!

He is the Holy Spirit of God………and he lives within us.

Thank you, dear Holy Spirit!
