  1. Guided by the Spirit

    Saturday May 19, 2012
    Guided by the Spirit
    Readings of the day: Acts 18:23-28 * Psalm 47:2-3, 8-10 * John 16:23-28


    Until now you have not asked anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete. John 16:24

    Close friends know what they can expect from one another. They come to know one another’s thoughts. If they need to ask for something, they know which requests are appropriate.

    Through quiet prayer and reflection, we come to know something of God’s thoughts. And so we learn to see which prayers’ can be answered and which ones cannot. The more we allow God’s Spirit to guide us, the more we discover how we are to pray. When God’s thoughts and our thoughts are one, then our request can bear fruit.

    Lord, may all my requests by guided by your Spirit. May I take time quiet meditation so I can know the guidance of your Spirit within me.
