My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, Tim Gustafson … AT THIS LINK … tells of how stock car driver, Dale Earnhardt, Jr felt so lost when His father was killed in a race - the Daytona 500. At that time, Dale Jr said, “Having Dad was like knowing all the answers.”
And that fearful feeling of loss Dale Earnhardt, Jr had was probably like that of Christ’s disciples when Jesus told them He would be leaving them. But the Lord promised His disciples that He would leave them the Holy Spirit to dwell in them and lead them to follow the Lord to glory. Oh how I pray that all reading with me here know - and believe - the truths of God’s word copied above, … reminding us of God’s promise to dwell in all born-again Christians, and giving us all the answers and direction we need to follow our Lord and serve His kingdom.
My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for giving me Your Spirit to lead me to follow You, Lord.
My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to respond and follow Your Spirit, Lord, . all the way to glory. … Amen
