We Belong to Him

Today I just want to share out of my notes from what Pastor Lee spoke on this morning. It really hit home with me. The name of the message was FUEL: Holy Spirit- The Connector:

Three things the Holy Spirit comes to do:

1. Reveal Who God is
(Ecclesiastes- God has deposited eternity in our hearts)

2. Reveal who we are. WE BELONG TO HIM. (John 14:15)

3. Reveal what is ours. (I Corinthians 2:12)


Untrue Views of God:

1. He is angry with me
2. He is distant and not concerned
3. He doesn't care what I do. Anything goes.
4. He loves everyone else except for me.


The Holy Spirit is going to help us move beyond our barriers to reveal the Father to us. (I John 3:1)

Open our spiritual eyes to the vast richness and beauty and justice that God offers us.


The first thing that the Holy Spirit teaches us is to say, 'Abba (Daddy) Father.'



I'm reminded and have been thinking a lot about a song that my sister-in-law to be (Abbey) has written. Part of the song says, "You are not hiding. You show Your face. You want to be found and embraced. You gladly open, open Your heart. And unlock the mysteries. You want to be found."
The Holy Spirit is not hiding from showing us the Father heart of God. Today I layed on my floor and looked out my window and saw the wind blowing in the trees. At that moment, I could sense the Holy Spirit in a tangible way. He is a wonderful counselor, comforter and friend.


"Every day with Jesus is better than the last." =)
