Led By the Spirit
By Larry Linville
“all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.” Romans 8:14
Happiness comes from God’s spirit.
I think that’s what Paul has said.
We need to watch and wait for Him
And we’ll be spirit led.
We’re part of Jesus’ family
It’s not something for which we pled.
We’re heirs – not something that we earn
So we are all spirit bred.
We need to be nurtured
And feast on the daily bread.
The spirit grows within us
As we are spirit fed.
If we fail to be in His presence
And live our life in deep dread.
There’s little he can do to help us
Because we are spirit dead.

Preparing a sermon for pentacost?
Yep. That poem went with this morning's Pentecost sermon. I don't know if I'll have one for next Sunday. I'm preaching on Psalm 8.
