The Spirit’s Work in Our Lives

The Spirit of God is Holy. The Spirit is, in fact, mentioned over 600 times in the Bible.

In the Book of Genesis, the role of the Spirit is Creator of the world. When we get to the book of Acts, which is the story of the early church, the Holy Spirit takes on a new role. In the Book of Acts, the Spirit takes on the role of recreating. Recreating people and communities. Recreating how people see God, others, and themselves.

The Spirit’s job is to change us to be more like Jesus: to love our enemies, forgive when wounded, show compassion, give generously, and to become people of hope.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, we ask that you nurture our faith and our hope that we become more like Jesus. We ask this in the name of Jesus, the incarnation of hope. Amen.
