SURRENDER TO THE
HOLY SPIRIT

Someone told me recently what surrendering to the Holy Spirit was to them, and they told me that surrendering to the Holy Spirit was like the summer breeze. Freeing and beautiful, and goes where ever it is lead by The Heavenly Father to go. But for me surrendering to the Holy Spirit is like a trail walk, a beautiful journey that challenges you in your life and takes you through various places to a destination, and the journey is a treat. This lead me to understand that surrendering to the Holy spirit is not the same for everyone, and to me, the friend that I asked about their experience had a more pleasant experience with surrendering to the Holy Spirit than I did. My experience was a little more structured and grounded. When I heard his response to surrendering to the Holy Spirit I wanted my journey to be more like that, free and flowing. But not everyone’s experience with the Holy Spirit is going to be the same, we are all different, and the Holy Spirit knows this. So when we surrender we are to let go of taking charge or “let go of the steering wheel and get out of the drivers seat” as the saying goes. To have a more pleasant journey with the Holy Spirit we have to let the Holy Spirit guide us into all things righteous and true.
