One Year Book of Hope week 4

Holy Spirit, Comforter
Spirit-filled, Spirit-Controlled
The key questions is not, "how do I get more of the Holy Spirit?" If you have placed your faith in Christ to save you, you already have the fullness of the holy Spirit inside of you.  The question is, Are you willing to give him more of you?  Perhaps he is inside you but you've kept him confined, refusing to give him full room and reign to change your attitudes, alter your perspective, order your steps.  Are you willing to move your demanding ego and consuming desires out so that he can become the central force and sweetest desire in your life?  Are you willing to see your agenda and appetites diminish so he can accomplish his purposes?

No Words
I want to pray. I want to pray in harmony with God's will. But sometimes I just don't seem to have the will to pray, nor do I know how to pray.  What a relief to know that the Holy Spirit helps me in myh weakness and confusion.  When we are weak-willed and weak-minded, when distress has consumed our energy and emotions, the Holy Spirit helps us. .... He prays for us with deep devotion and perfect articulation when we have no words--only tears and questions.
Deuteronomy 29:29 Acts 2:22-24, Romans 11:33-34, 1 Corinthians 2:9....excellent scriptures on God's ways being a mystery to us.
