Your Identity in Christ

• Through Christ, I am a receiver of the Holy Spirit, who counsels me in the ways of God.

Pause for a moment to picture yourself as a receiver of gifts, or in this situation a receiver of the specific gift known as the Holy Spirit.

With the Holy Spirit comes so many other gifts. It is easy to seek gifts from the Giver rather than the Giver Himself. Instead think of receiving your desired gift with the Giver.

Even when we don't know what we need, the Holy Spirit can pray for and provide what we are looking for without us being aware of it.

Micro-Meditation Scripture

Psalm 119:33-40 (Hei, 5th letter)

Teach me, LORD, the way of your decrees,
that I may follow it to the end.
Give me understanding,
so that I may keep your law
and obey it with all my heart.
Direct me in the path of your commands,
for there I find delight.
Turn my heart toward your statutes
and not toward selfish gain.
Turn my eyes away from worthless things;
preserve my life according to your word.
Fulfill your promise to your servant,
so that you may be feared.
Take away the disgrace I dread,
for your laws are good.
How I long for your precepts!
In your righteousness preserve my life.
