Help Me Be More Like Jesus

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness."Galatians 5:22 

Ever had one of those days where you don’t really feel joyful or have a bad attitude about something? Probably we all have. 

You want to love like Jesus loves, forgive like He forgives, and just let Him take care of the problems of the people world as He didn’t make you the co-savior. The enemy would step in and taunt you into being self righteous and acting like Holy Spirit junior.

Today quiet your heart. Get rid of things causing distracting thoughts which could be anything plugged into electricity. Do not constantly feed your mind on news reports. You can’t stay peaceful doing that. Let God handle things and you pray. Don’t be like the men on the recent Progressive Insurance TV commercial trying to tell maintenance workers how to do their job.  God has things under control. Give him the steering wheel my friend. 

PRAYER: Lord help me calm my heart and learn to rest. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
