A Spirit-led week (isn’t weak)

Daily writing prompt
Describe your ideal week.

My ideal week is to be Spirit-led. It is to go where Jesus prompts me to go and to do what He prompts me to do. I’ve never achieved such a perfect week but that’s always my goal.

I have discovered that the closer I get to that goal, the more I am filled with peace, joy, hope, and awe. When I pay attention to Christ’s inner promptings and obey them in my daily life, I’m always amazed at the marvelous things He does inside me and through me.

When I ignore His prompting (“quench the Spirit”), my life reverts back to human disfunction. So, I’ve trained myself to quickly ask for Christ’s forgiveness in order that I can obey the next inner nudging. I’ve found that the more attentive and obedient I am to His promptings, the more I become aware of them.

Following the leadings of “Christ in you, the hope of glory,” is such an incredible way to live. I want to spend the rest of my life getting better at it!

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
