“When you are filled with the Spirit,
you are empowered to speak to each other
in the soulful words of pious songs, hymns, and spiritual songs;
to sing and make music with your hearts attuned to God;
and to give thanks to God the Father every day through
the name of our Lord Jesus the Anointed for all He has done.”

-Ephesians 5:19-20 The Voice

A Time to Think … “Remember that grace and truth cannot finally be crucified. Remember that all the high things that make humanity beautiful cannot be forever laid in the dust, spattered with blood. And most of all, remember that He who rose from the dead, rose to pour out His Holy Spirit into human lives, and, by that Spirit, to make available to any individual all the fullness of Himself, twenty-four hours a day.” ―Ray C. Stedman, Pastor, author, theologian

A Time to Act … Today ask God for a “fill-up” not for your gas tank but your soul’s tank. That every-day refreshing fill will have you filled with the JOY of the Spirit and it will make your day better and better for all those around you. And you know what—it’s completely free!!

A Time to Pray… O Holy Spirit, breathe new life in me today, empower me to speak with love and compassion. Inspire my soul to sing out and be grateful for all the blessings I have. Remove my stubborn thoughts and ways and replace them with the JOY of the Lord, AMEN.
