A Reflection On The Holy Spirit

When I need to remember that the Spirit is active

A popular catchphrase asks us, “What would Jesus do?” A better question is, “What is Jesus doing?” The first question makes Jesus a dead example. The second recognizes His living Presence. The Holy Spirit shows us how to live—not just in principle or by example, but in our actual circumstances. The Spirit convicts us regarding righteousness because we need His righteousness to live in us. And our world desperately needs to see Him. Let them see Him through you.

When he comes, he will convict the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness.

John 16:8
