FOLLOW THE SPIRIT OF GOD!

 







FOLLOW THE SPIRIT OF GOD!


We are presented

With all kinds of CHOICES

In this crazy-

Mixed up world


I can think of no

BETTER CHOICE=in this world

Than to FOLLOW

The SPIRIT OF GOD=

Than to follow

The SPIRIT of Jesus


“You impose on people

BURDENS hard to carry=

But you yourselves


Do not lift one finger

To touch them” Luke 11:46


There is no more powerful

FORCE for evangelization

In this world


Than a FAITHFUL DISCIPLE

Laying down his or her own life

For others


The apostles did this in death=

But we can do this

IN LIFE


By FOLLOWING the Spirit

Of God=by

Following the Spirit of Jesus=

Going to or watching

CHURCH every day=

READING the bible every day=

PRAYING EVERY DAY


FOLLOW THE SPIRIT OF GOD!


“Do NOT FOLLOW the crowd

In doing wrong=

WHEN you give testimony

In a lawsuit-

Do not pervert justice=

By siding-with the crowd” Exodus 27:2


“When he has brought out

All his own-

He goes on ahead of them


And his sheep FOLLOW HIM
Because they know his voice” John 10:4


“FOLLOW the way of love=

And eagerly desire

Gifts of the Spirit=

Especially prophecy” 1 Corinthians 14:1


Saint Paul DIRECTS US

To follow a life

Of the Holy Spirit


A life by which CHRISTIANS-

Bear fruit=

EVIDENCED by kindness-patience-

Joy and generosity


And you don't have

To die=in order

To be a MARTYR=

You can GIVE YOUR LIFE

To God in life=and in LOVE


FOLLOW God=Follow Jesus

Give your life away


ELEVATE the human SPIRIT-

Elevate the human condition=

GIVE your life away

To the SPIRIT OF GOD


“But the FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

Is love-joy-peace-forbearance-

Kindness-goodness-faithfulness-

Gentleness-and self-control” Galatians 5:22


Don't be a slave to life=

To your own selfish-desires=

Give yourself away to GOD=

Every day


FOLLOW THE SPIRIT OF GOD!


In Jesus' name=and in the name of GOD OUR FATHER=our holy-living-loving GOD
