Holy Spirit of Jesus, help me to find out what you want me to do, then do it…

 
Ephesians 5:6-17

 
It takes just the blink of an eye. When my late uncle was in a drug induced paralysis preceding his death, the only way he could communicate was to blink his eyes – once for yes, twice for no.  Those blinks spoke volumes and changed the course of his treatments, his family’s grieving hearts, and perhaps his own soul. Similarly for us in our walk with Christ Jesus. One brief action, or word, can impact my own and others lives. A flick of my eyelid, closes the closet door of my heart… and I can have a moment with Jesus, praying scripture or hearing his quietly firm spirit in my heart… and then open my eyes to move ahead with His wisdom into the next thought, word or action along my journey. The difference ‘finding out what Jesus would have me do’ makes can change the course of history, propelling me and others away from the black holes of sin and death, into the life-giving kingdom of God. Will I take a moment with Jesus to find out what He would have me do, before rushing ahead into the agendas of the world, the flesh and the devil?  Holy Spirit of Jesus, help me to find out what you want me to do, then do it.
 
 
May you be filled with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding to live in a manner worthy of the Lord…      (Colossians 1:9-10))
