Last week the Lord showed me in Galatians 5 that emotions, people, and my situations should not be the ones to lead my life. The Holy Spirit should be the only person to lead my life in every area and situation. If you have ever been a situation that would make you want to respond in a way that was not pleasing to God, that is when the Lord is the most present because He is the still voice that is encouraging you to do the right thing according to the word of God. This past week, I was asking God to help me respond to my situation the way he wants me to and not out of my own emotions. Galatians 5:22 shows us ways to respond to those aggy situations in life that would cause us to lose our composure through love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
So what am I saying, I am saying that even though we'll face situations in life that would want us to and sometimes causes us to respond out of the flesh instead of the spirit, the Lord still wants to lead us to respond to everything with his direction. No matter your issue right now, the Lord will show you how to respond with the fruit of the spirit.
