Need a dose of thankfulness and joy?

Consider this excercise:

Go through a list of things that you have, and consider carefully whether having them is a priviledge or a right.

Thank you Father, that I am priviledged to be able to call you just that: "Father".
Thank you so very much.

The Holy Spirit...

...is like and engagement ring. =D

No, serious - 2 Cor 5:5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.

The fact is, those of us who now have the Holy Spirit, have a guarantee, a 'visible' sign that we ARE going to be married to Christ our bridegroom. If ever anyone questions us, "How do you know Jesus is actually coming back for you?" We can point to the Holy Spirit, much as a bride-to-be can point to her engagement ring. A sign which says: "Already promised to someone"

We are already promised to Jesus, take heart, take comfort, be encouraged, and live as His bride-to-be!
