The Forgotten God
October 11, 2011

When we quote The Apostles’ Creed, we say, “I believe in the Holy Spirit.” Author J. B. Phillips said, “Every time we say [this] we mean that we believe that [the Spirit] is a living God able and willing to enter human personality and change it.”

Sometimes we forget that the Holy Spirit is not an impersonal force. The Bible describes Him as God. He possesses the attributes of God: He is present everywhere (Ps. 139:7-8), He knows all things (1 Cor. 2:10-11), and He has infinite power (Luke 1:35). He also does things that only God can do: create (Gen. 1:2) and give life (Rom. 8:2). He is equal in every way with the other Persons of the Trinity—the Father and the Son.

The Holy Spirit is a Person who engages in personal ways with us. He grieves when we sin (Eph. 4:30). He teaches us (1 Cor. 2:13), prays for us (Rom. 8:26), guides us (John 16:13), gives us spiritual gifts (1 Cor. 12:11), and assures us of salvation (Rom. 8:16).

The Holy Spirit indwells us if we have received forgiveness of sin through Jesus. He desires to transform us so that we become more and more like Jesus. Let’s cooperate with the Spirit by reading God’s Word and relying on His power to obey what we learn.

God’s guidance and help that we need day to day
Is given to all who believe;
The Spirit has sealed us—He’s God’s guarantee
Of power that we can receive. —Branon

The Christian who neglects the Holy Spirit
is like a lamp that’s not plugged in.

Read: 1 Corinthians 2:6-16

No one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. —1 Corinthians 2:11
Bible in a year:
Isaiah 37-38; Colossians 3

TIMES TOGETHER

The times which we have spent together,
Seem like seconds, not years;
Although our times have been happy ones,
Still, we both manage to shed a few tears

How the tears came about to be,
May be anyone's lucky guess;
It is one of life's little mysteries,
That has turned into, a sad mess

Our loves strength together, has helped us,
To keep us going strong;
It is through sharing these times,
which proves, our love is not wrong

We will continue to go together,
down the many roads of life;
Helping each other everyday,
in every way, to overcome our daily strife

Whenever we stop to look back,
we will at once be able to see;
That the years of love and life we shared,
Were just always, always meant to be

I found an additional number for a real estate broker. I left a message on their answering machine. I’m praying that I get a return call

Thank you, for the kind words.

Long ago I chose to look and see the glass half full.

Later I realized it is both half full and half empty.

Look for the good. It is always there.

Be well.
