Taken for Granted

“Never grieve the Spirit of God or take for granted his holy influence in your life.” (Ephesians 4:30 TPT)

How often do you think about the air you breathe? You couldn’t survive more than a few minutes without oxygen. How about the water that you drink, wash, and cook with--how long could you survive without it? We often fail to appreciate the essential until it’s gone. We take air, water, food, shelter, health, love, safety, and a multitude of other things for granted. We treat these precious commodities carelessly. We assume they will always be available. 

The Spirit of God moves and breathes within us. This Holy Essence is integral, powerful, protective, and sustains everything. Yet, we fail to acknowledge this energy. We drift through our days as if we can manage on our own. We take the Holy Spirit for granted. 

How can you treasure the gift of the Holy Spirit? Soak in the Presence of God. Communicate constantly. Ask for guidance. Listen. Follow instructions. Express gratitude. Recognize the Divine Energy that permeates everything and yield to its influence.
