“If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” — Luke 11:13 NIV 🔥❤️
Lord Jesus, may our lives be centered on, ordered around, the Gospel. Save us to the uttermost (freedom is a thing). Give us the mind of Christ, a heart of flesh and an instructed tongue. Come, Holy Spirit.
1 One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, together with the elders, came up to him. (Luke 20:1 NIV)
Jesus is Lord.
He came once. He’s coming back.
He comes repeatedly (Word and Spirit).
Death to self. Alive in Christ.
Right here. Right now. Why not?
Come, Holy Spirit.
Sunday is the weekly celebration of creation and resurrection, a reminder of new life, always meant to take us back to the Center of life, Jesus. @joanchittister
