“Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?  For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

If you are walking with the Lord, do you not know that the Holy Spirit is in you?  Why do you grieve the Spirit as if you are walking on your own?  Do not be afraid, but walk knowing that you never walk alone.  Be guided by the Holy Spirit which is in you that you may learn how to walk as Jesus walked.  The Lord is Sovereign and He will be Sovereign in eternity.  Live knowing you have been redeemed.

Holy Spirit, You have come that all who walk in Your presence would grow in the Christ-life.  Take away those hindrances that cause me to walk by my own power that I might walk instead by Your leading.  Teach me what is good and profitable and what hinders my faithful walk by Your leading.  You have created all things for a purpose.  Teach me from Your inspired word the purpose for all things.

Lord Jesus, You have given us the example of how to live.  Let me not see these things in a trivial way, nor dismiss them, but live seeking to be like You.  Guide me, O Lord, in the way of truth that I would now and forever abide in Your goodness, mercy and salvation.  Lead me to be faithful in small things so that I may learn how to be faithful in big things.  Lead me today, Jesus, where I need to go.  Amen.
