Who Is the Holy Spirit?نموونە

OK Holy Spirit, Let’s Do This

Now you know that the Holy Spirit is God living inside of you, speaking into your thoughts, and leading you closer to Him. He’s always encouraging you to do not only the right thing but also the God thing. He’s there to help you make choices and take actions that will change the world.

Imagine if your entire generation began to listen closely for the Holy Spirit’s voice and then did whatever He said. What would your school look like? How would your family be different? Remember that the Holy Spirit’s mission is to show us God’s plan—not only for us but also for the world. That means your siblings, your friends, your neighbors and that one girl in math class you can’t stand—they all need you to listen so that they can encounter God through you.

If you’re going to change the world, you first have to let the Holy Spirit change you. And that change happens a little every day as we choose to do what He shows us. So, how do you start? Great question. And we promise, it’s not difficult. Just ask two questions.

1. OK Holy Spirit, is there anything I’m trying to do without you?

Think about that for a minute. Let it sink in. Is there anything you’re trying to do without listening to the Holy Spirit? Would He change anything if you asked for His advice? Is there anything you would feel guilty letting God see?

But, we’re not just talking about just feeling guilty. Is there anything you could be more effective at with God’s help? Are there injustices around you that you could make right? Which leads us to the second question…

2. OK Holy Spirit, is there anything you’re doing without me?

Do you feel the weight of that? Just like the radio waves that bring music into your car, God is always working. He’s broadcasting His plan all over the earth. If you tune into Him, you’ll see the world around you through His eyes. Who needs encouraging? Where can you help? What can you change?

If you start every day with these two simple questions, you can change the course of your entire life. God created you on purpose, and He built you to hear His voice. Where is His small, quiet voice leading you? The Holy Spirit is blazing the trail ahead of you, daring you to follow Him into the unique and challenging life that God has planned just for you.
