Live by the Spirit

Live under the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit. Hold tight to the Spirit of the Lord that dwells in you, putting to death the deeds of the body so that you will live. 

The Hand of God had freed you of any debts. You are not indebted to the flesh but instead have received power to avoid sins caused by your body.
Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
