2 Questions we need to answer:
1. What’s preventing me from experiencing joy?
2. What can I do about it?

Christian Image Management vs. Being Real…from the Inside Out

Life of the Spirit vs. Soul in Control

Galatians 5:25-26 MSG
Since this is the kind of life we have chosen, the life of the Spirit, let us make sure that we do not just hold it as an idea in our heads or a sentiment in our hearts, but work out its implications in every detail of our lives. That means we will not compare ourselves with each other as if one of us were better and another worse. We have far more interesting things to do with our lives. Each of us is an original.

LIFE of THE SPIRIT
The Voice of God
1. Spirit = the part of us that can hear the voice of God.

2. Soul = Mind= what we think – obsess about – concentrate on
Will = what we want - desire – crave
Emotions = what we feel

Body = the temporary tent that houses your soul & spirit

WHAT DO I DO….when I disconnected from myself or the Spirit of God
