Come, O Holy Spirit, come! Give us open hearts to hear Your counsel. Give us boldness to obey. Use us to do Your work and spread Your love. Help us trust that we only need to OBEY and You will show us the way. Our job isn’t to worry or fret over outcomes, but simply to follow and obey You. Help us to embrace obedience and trust in Your leadership! Amen!
“The church for too long has followed Caspar, the friendly ghost instead of seeking the fire of the Holy Spirit. We have turned limp at the thought of our own cross; we faint when we think of suffering or sacrifice. Beloved, it is time to embrace the fire of God’s Presence. It is the fire that purifies our sacrifice.” ~Francis Frangipane
