Yielding to the Spirit

"May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through.  May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."
-1 Thessalonians 5:23

In today's Our Daily Bread Jennifer Schuldt writes, "When our relationship with God seems distant and disconnected, this may be because the Spirit's conviction has been repeatedly brushed aside."

Yielding to the Holy Spirit's promptings will not only lead us to make good choices but teach us how to know Him better.  It becomes easier to follow Him without having to wonder if we're doing the right thing.  It's like living with a spouse for so long that you automatically know what they like and dislike.

I am grateful that I have the Holy Spirit to teach me what is right and true.
