Some want the faith to move mountains, but often it isn't strong enough to move them out of bed Sunday morning.
James 2:14

I do a fair amount of writing in the form of devotions, sermons, and teachings. While I enjoy writing, I still make grammatical errors and sometimes have poor sentence structure, so I use a tool called Grammarly. It catches misspellings, bad grammar, and poor sentence structure, helping me communicate my message as effectively as possible. Before I hit “send,” I let Grammarly check my writing.

As Christians, we also have someone to help us before we speak: the Holy Spirit, and if you are like me, there have been times you wish you had utilized that help. When we are about to communicate with the lost, respond to criticism, or are upset, we would do well to let the Holy Spirit check our speech and tone before hitting “send.” When our speech is driven by emotions, it doesn’t always come out in a way that glorifies God, but the Holy Spirit is always there to refine it before we speak. Using Grammarly helps when writing, but allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us before we speak is essential if we want to represent Jesus well.

John 14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

Romans 8:26 Likewise, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Luke 12:12 says, "For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say."

One morning not so long ago, I woke up to a mess. During the night, a raccoon got into my garbage can and strewed garbage all over the yard. At first I was upset about it, but as I was cleaning it up, I noticed it was evidence that we had plenty to eat. Yes, the raccoon smelled the scraps and decided to go treasure hunting, but that was really more my fault than the raccoon’s. I could have done a better job of throwing the garbage away and also securing the lid on the can.

It made me think about how easy it is to complain and be upset over the inconveniences of life, but often they are due to our own decisions. Yes, sometimes the enemy will attack seemingly without any causality on our part, but even then we have so much to be thankful for. I cleaned up the mess, determined to do a better job of putting out the garbage next time, and thanked the Lord for all He has done for me, even cleaning me up when I was a mess. I was also grateful I was healthy enough to bend over and clean all that garbage up. Bending over isn’t as easy as it used to be. Be thankful, know you are blessed, and treat inconveniences as opportunities to grow stronger in the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Psalm 107:1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!

Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Want to experience revival? Be willing for God to flow through you to serve others. That flow will clean out the junk.
Matt. 5:16

Who remembers the old movie Mary Poppins? One of the songs in the movie had the phrase “just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down.” Sometimes, in order to help people receive what they need to hear, we need to be a little creative. One might think, “Why is that my problem?” Sometimes I hear people say, “Well, I just tell it like it is, and if they don’t receive it, that’s their problem.” Now I could be wrong, but that sounds a little selfish to me and suggests our only concern is the duty to share the gospel rather than actually having a love for the lost. If we really care about the lost, wouldn’t we go the extra mile or make a little stronger effort?

What if a farmer just rode through his field, casting seed without preparing the soil first by plowing or fertilizing? His crop would be greatly diminished. If we don’t love the lost and build a relationship with them so they will listen, our crop of souls will also be greatly diminished. There are people all around you who need help or need to hear the truth. You could just blurt the gospel out and feel you did your part, or you can go the extra mile and try to present it in an understandable, sweet, loving way so it will be easier for them to receive. Just a spoonful of love will help the truth go down.

1 Corinthians 13:4-5 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.

Proverbs 15:1 A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
