Galatians: 5: 16

 

¹⁶So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature.

 

Live by the Spirit. When we look to ourselves, and the power of the Spirit that lives in each of us, we will find the strength to overcome our hardships. We will find the confidence to head out into uncharted waters, and live our lives as examples of the Love of Christ. It is not a promise of an easy path; the promise does not come with a pass from adversity. You will be tempted, you will come up against what in some cases looks like impossible situations where anyone would stumble, however as Paul reminds us here if we live by the Spirit, we will not gratify the desires. We may experience the pull, we might be able to relate to the hardship, but we will remain victorious in our walk with Christ if we remember to rely on the Holy Spirit that resides in each of us. Be strong, be brave, be courageous, find the strength, comfort, protection, and love that comes with living a life led by the Lord. You will find yourself victorious!

 

Peace,

Brian
