Obedience

So recently I have found myself in this place of wanting to be able to be filled with the Holy Spirit in a way that every decision of everyday is made based on His prompting. In pursuing this I have number one been praying, but also have sought out council from some people much wiser than myself. In my time with them God was able to teach me so much about my relationship with Him. I walked away from last week with 3 mindsets I want to incorporate in the way I attack each day. Hopefully over the next few days I will post each of these. Here is the first:

Living a life of being filled by the Spirit is all about obedience and purity. I had to ask myself, “Am I being obedient to God on a daily basis in areas that are seemingly small?” Why would God fill me up with more of anything if I am not being obedient with what I have. The question asked of me that resounded was this, “You obviously trust God to be able to fill you with His Spirit, can you be trusted by Him once he does that?” Wow….

“Many people trust God, much fewer are trustworthy to God.” That blew me away.
