“But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills. For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ” (1 Corinthians 12:11-12).
It is the Lord who is the Savior. It is the Lord who works all things together. Do not envy what the Lord grants to another, but rejoice that the Lord is working through those whom He has graced. We are called out of the nonsense of this world to the goodness of the Lord. Wait upon the Lord and He will work through you that which is pleasing in His sight according to His goodness.
Lord, lead me to turn to You and not the the world. You have come that we might have life and have it abundantly. Be the One who guides that no other would come puffed up and stir Your sheep in the wrong direction. Help each of us to see that it is You who does all things and that only through You and according to Your will can any good things come. Keep our eyes upon You.
Lord Jesus, You have sent the Spirit to guide us from the inside out. Lead me, O Lord, that I may be directed by You and no other. Renew my mind and help me to have the attitude You would have in every situation. Guide me according to Your purpose. Help me see that I am gifted for the time and place according to the Father’s good pleasure. In all things, teach me to rejoice that You have overcome the world. Amen.
