To enjoy the Spirit


Philippians 4:4-5 New English Translation (NET Bible)

4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, rejoice! 5 Let everyone see your gentleness. The Lord is near!

 

To know God is to love Him

but who really knows the Lord?

Is it the Holy Spirit

Who is always with me?

Well you now asked:

”How do I know?”

Maybe He is treated as a servant

and not as a guest to be.

 

To be in touch with God,

one needs the Holy Spirit.

To communicate at all

one needs that awareness.

To just have the idea

who you are in the spirit.

Is known in need for Jesus Christ

Who brought New Life in fullness.

 

Enjoyment in God’s presence

depends on one’s inner-being.

Awareness of this happening

maybe beyond one’s soul.

That seems to be impossible

for self-worth is built on seeing

products of one’s involvement

in commitment to one’s goals.
