178 GOOD MORNING, HOLY SPIRIT
children of God" (vv. 15-16).
In verse after verse Paul tells you that it is the Spirit that
does the work of the Father and the Son. And I get excited
every time I read those glorious words: "For as many as are
led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God."
God does not intend for you to stray from the path He
has set for you to follow. He did not create you to see you
fail. That's why you should not become unduly alarmed by
the possibility of committing the unpardonable sin,
blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
Your love for Christ so outweighs Satan's influence that
the battle has already been won. The Holy Spirit is longing
for you to begin a deep, personal relationship.
When my soul cried out with a heartfelt sobbing that
seemed unending, the Spirit was patiently waiting. His
burden became my burden, and the experience gave me a
passion for souls that has never diminished nor departed.
He was waiting to give me power, fulfillment,
righteousness, a Spirit-led life, and so much more.
And now He is waiting for you.
