... I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes ...

Ezekiel 36:27

Just when I think that I don’t have the energy to make breakfast, a friend calls to ask me to do a favor. When I feel useless, a neighbor asks for my advice on something. If I dwell on my health problems, I am humbled by a person who has more serious ones than I do. When I am tempted to sin, my conscience helps me resist it. On days that I doubt I achieved much in life, someone compliments me on something I did. The times that I failed, God had something better planned. I have always benefitted from the good deeds that others have done for me. The Holy Spirit surely inspired their kindness.

God’s Spirit is always at work in us.

Dear Lord, thank you for your Spirit in our life. Amen.

Reflect: When have you felt the Holy Spirit making a positive difference in your life?
