I found this very interesting:
At CIY, the major theme was the Holy Spirit. The second evening session was simply amazing in my opinion. It was specifically on the Holy Spirit: on receiving it and listening to its call.
But what I really want to focus on tonight was the group morning devotional the morning before the message on the Holy Spirit. It too was on the basics of the Holy Spirit. It had this little activity where there was a list of scriptures from the Bible in one column and a list of characteristics in another column... We had to look up the scriptures and then match them with the characteristics. One of the characteristics was something to the effect that, 'whenever you're being plagued by grief and sorrow and you don't know what to say to God, the Holy Spirit living inside you can speak for you.'
I just thought that was the coolest thing. That the Spirit of God can tell our Heavenly Father what's going on, even though He already knows. I wish I could remember the exact scripture. When I get home I'll look it up in my Move student magazine and post it. But for now just think about this:
~Have you received the Holy Spirit?
~Do you have a time each day where you commune and talk with God's Spirit?
~Do you listen to the Spirit's tug and call?
~Have you stamped out the Spirit to where the voice is so small it's impossible to hear?
Think. Think some more. Pray.
God Bless
