Contemplative Bible Reading

Galatians 3:5 (New Living Translation)

I ask you again, does God give you the Holy Spirit and work miracles among you because you obey the law? Of course not! It is because you believe the message you heard about Christ.

Notice the introduction to the question asked above. It tells us about some of God’s gifts. God gives us:

• the Holy Spirit
• miracles

Hmm, not bad for a some of His gifts.

Now the challenge for me is to remember these and act like I have received them. Too hard to smile and move on when someone slights me? The Holy Spirit is in my ready to aid me. Something good can’t possibly happen? God provides miracles, the impossible.

Oh, well, uh, I sort of got busy and forgot. God, help me in my unbelief.
