walking in the Spirit



Walking the walk...

Are you walking in the spirit? Think about it...before you click off this blog and move on to something else, take some time to consider your walk. Are you walking in the Spirit? The Apostle Paul encourages us to “Walk by the Spirit” and he goes on to say “and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.” (Galatians 5:16) So many believers struggle with “sin” and the word of God teaches us if we are walking in the spirit we will not give in to sin! How do we walk in the spirit? That is a great question, I am so glad that you ask; we walk in the Spirit by immersing ourselves in to the Word of God! The Bible truly helps us to understand the characteristics of Christian living! We are to be mirror reflections of Christ! Others should be able to see our Savior in us! By staying clean, close and continual our lives will be a beacon to those around us who might be struggling with the issues of life. St. Francis of Assisi said “Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.” Walking in the spirit will take you places that you have never dreamed of. I feel compelled to reach as many people for Christ that I can. This may seem overwhelming to some but by walking in the Spirit I can feel confident that our Awesome God is going to use me to do amazing things! St. Francis of Assisi also said “Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.” Walking in the Spirit is a daily thing! So start walking today! You will be blown away at how God changes the direction of your life! I love you all! <><
