If you love Me, you will keep My
commandments. I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that
He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot
receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He
abides with you and will be in you. John 14:15-17 NASB

| Holy Spirit...as Jesus saw Him. How do you see and hear the Holy Spirit? Are you looking and listening? |
Have you ever needed help? Spiritual help?
Or even just help finding your keys? The Holy Spirit is good about being that
“Rememberer” for me. He helps me not only find my keys, but find scripture that
is appropriate for particular prayers or just calms my very soul when I’m
distressed. He prompts me to do things…call, visit, send notes, take food, say
a word or two, and help others…when I listen and respond.
Obedience starts with
listening to the Holy Spirit. If…if…if. If you love Jesus, you will keep God’s
commandments. That is what I live to do…how about you? Do you live with a
purpose? Is that your purpose to glorify God…to keep His commandments? Does the
Holy Spirit live within you…and do you listen and obey? If you love….
If you carefully obey all the commands I am
giving you today, and if you love the LORD your God and serve him with all your
heart and soul, then he will send the rains in their proper seasons—the early
and late rains—so you can bring in your harvests of grain, new wine, and olive
oil. Deuteronomy 11:13-14.
Prayer ~ Lord, I love You…and I want to show
that love by keeping Your commandment…in all that I think, say and do. May my
life bring You glory. Thank you for the Holy Spirit—who gives me guidance,
strength and hope.
