Respond to the Spirit

Let go and let love.

Cast your cares on the Lord for He cares for you.

So often, Christians try to solve problems on their own; fix messes by themselves. So often we feel as though we have to be strong on our own. But I say to you, no. Be strong in the LORD, in the power of HIS might. Stop struggling on your own. Rather, respond to the Holy Spirit.

We all have struggles, whether in our family, social life, school, faith, or thought life. Maybe your parents are fighting, maybe you're lonely, maybe it's hard to make friends, maybe you're struggling to keep your thoughts pure, maybe you're having a hard time feeling the Lord's love for you. And too often we try to fix this on our own, when we should be turning to the Lord and letting Him heal your broken places. Instead of trying to take things into our own hands, we need to stop, pray, and let the Holy Spirit lead us.
