The Hardest Personal Goal

Walk in the Spirit

The risen Jesus
Is living in me
But we don’t see
Eye to eye.
We often disagree.
He wants to lead me,
But I want to be free
To do what I want
Whenever I want.
He calls me to die
To my own desires
And that requires
My full surrender,
Moment by moment,
To His will.
To follow Jesus
Is to walk through life
Being Spirit-led
By His inner presence
And not fulfilling
The desires of the flesh.
(Galatians 5:13-25.)

I want to be like glowing ripples and continually reflect the radiance of God in the stream of life. That’s my life’s goal.

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!
