Spend a Minute with God
As the Holy Spirit controls your mind and actions more fully, you become free in Me. You are increasingly released to become the one I created you to be. Freedom through surrender sounds like a contradiction, doesn't it? Yet when My Spirit is controlling your thinking and behavior, you feel more alive, more real, more content! I encourage you to pray, "Holy Spirit, think through me, live through me, love through me." This is a prayer of surrender. Nonetheless, even though you may pray this way, your desire to be in control can sabotage you. In My kingdom, freedom comes from yielding to My perfect will. Becasue I am infinite and you are not, My will may appear to be anything but perfect. Still, I want you to trust Me, even when you cannot understand what I am doing. The Holy Spirit will help you in this as you invite Him to control your thinking. He lives in the depths of your spirit and knows you better than you know yourself. His work in you can liberate you to become more completely the one I designed you to be. I am pleased when you ask My Spirit to live and love through you. This is the collaborative way of living.
