“For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”
Romans 8:6 NKJV
__________________________________________________________________________________
Brethren, if we are not Spirit governed we will constantly mislead others. The weight of our words will hold hypocrisy, the weight of our actions will cause disunity. The weight of our desires will bring forth selfish tendencies & the weight of our love will be emotionally driven. We must take heed and remember our disposition. When we neglect being governed, guided, & led by the Spirit and we find refuge in our own ponders and reasonings, we remove the authority of Scripture, we quench the Spirit, & we bring malnourishment to our very own souls. Brethren, a person Spirit governed is not found by a lofty seminar. It’s not found by the means of an institution. It’s found in the very core of a relationship. It’s His love, yes, that very heart of love that binds us. Therefore, be governed by His counsel, and may you walk ever so contritely in his Grace.
