"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Walking in the Spirit

I have been leading a Ladies Bible study on the book of Acts. Last night we had our second session where we discussed the importance of walking in the Spirit. All of the women are at different stages in their Christian walk and come from varying backgrounds and denominations. Despite our differences, we also have a common thread - belief in the Lord Jesus.

Last evening we were all in agreement when it came to the topic of walking in the Spirit. We realized that this needs to be a daily commitment - sometimes moment by moment - asking for the Lord's guidance in our life. Asking the Holy Spirit to prompt us to things that He desires for us to do. The more you start to obey those little nudges, the more you will start to hear what God is calling you to do and to follow His will for your life. Obedience in small things, leads to bigger things.

So listen today for that inner voice guiding you in what you should do. Perhaps it is to write a note of encouragement to someone, call and tell someone that you are praying for them, ..... What is God asking you to do today? Will you be faithful and heed that call?
