Possessing the Spirit

In the pain of the battle with the old nature, we hide from the Holy Spirit. The very One who can help us cope with this struggle is the one we block out. He has been sent to groan for us. He has been sent to guide us. He ministers the comfort and cleansing of forgiveness.

We lust after many things. We have set up idols in our lives. The things that we must possess or our life will be unsatisfied.

Perhaps, if we re-direct our attention to the Holy Spirit and objectify Him for possession, we will see the depths of intimacy that are possible with our God.
