When I was
about 5 years of age, my dad and I were walking toward the Bronx Zoo to see the
animals. My hand was in his large soft hands and I knew that I was going
somewhere with him important. My dad was my hero and he and I would go on
adventures together so for me the Zoo was just another adventure. Suddenly, dad
heard a screech and then in a blink of the eye, a car was coming toward me and
in a moment, my dad’s hand gripped my hand and swung me around and the car
missed me. If dad wouldn’t have done this, I would not be here today. I was
walking with him and he saved my life. Because I was living in the moment with
my biological father, I was walking with him in the physical.
When we refer
to our Father in Heaven, we can rest assured that as my biological father saved
me that day, our Father desires to do
the same for us. The Holy Spirit leads us to a deeper understanding of Christ.
In the spiritual world, Christ states in the Bible “If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”
Galatians 5:25
If we are truly
living in the Spirit then that means that we should also walk in the Spirit. Because
I was living with my father, I was in his presence and I physically walked with
my father most of the time because I lived under his roof. As we live in the presence of our Father
through His Spirit, then we can truly walk with the Spirit. Living in the
Spirit means that we will abide by the precepts of the Lord and by the fruit
that we bear will let the world know who our Father really is. So in essence we
walk in the Holy Spirit not because we have to, but because we have a deep
relationship with the God Head and doing so, we will reflect him in character, lifestyle and in all that we do. We will love others, we will forgive others, we will bear good fruit.
In our
healing journey, we need to seek refuge in something greater than us because we
need that assurance and the only way that is possible is to live in the Spirit.
If you are struggling today ask the Holy Spirit to lead you and guide you
because as my father on earth did that day and saved my life, Christ wants to do
the same for us and even greater things but we must ask Him into our lives.
