Fantastic Friday #839 - Experience

Experience

3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh? 4 Have you experienced so much in vain—if it really was in vain? 5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? Galatians 3:3-5

Do you go about an experience in your life and become really thoughtful about the decisions you make? Do you count on God with this experience, so that you can fully have a God-inspired experience? Like many people, our experiences start out with all the right intentions, however when we might hit a bump in the road or a major blockage, we tend to look at seeing how we can personally manage the experience. The same can be said if we are trying to get others to come to Christ, we start out with the best intentions to show others God through His Spirit, however when we hit a rough patch, we tend to turn away from that Spirit and focus solely on our own way to manage. We, however, cannot manage an experience like this on our own, we must have the Spirit of God continually in our lives to help lift and guide us. Give God what is needed for us to fully enjoy the experiences we have and need in our lives.

Have a great weekend.

Matt
