Growing In <strong>Holiness</strong>LESSONS FROM HOPSCOTCH AND LIFE61In hopscotch you are out if you lose your balance and accidentally hopoutside the grid. In our spiritual life, we can easily get out of balance aswell. The challenge for each of us is <strong>to</strong> stay centered in the holiness ofGod. Many forces can draw our attention away from the Lord and causeus <strong>to</strong> lose our balance. Certainly, that is the goal of the enemy. Andnumerous temptations in the world may cause us <strong>to</strong> stray from the pathmarked out for Christians in the Bible. We need the empowerment of theHoly Spirit <strong>to</strong> walk in vic<strong>to</strong>ry. But even Spirit-filled Christians can get ou<strong>to</strong>f balance concerning the role of the Holy Spirit. Scripture makes it clear(John 16:14) that the role of the Holy Spirit is <strong>to</strong> glorify Jesus. Beloved,pray that you will always maintain balance in your spiritual walk. Thenyou will live a holy life that pleases the Lord and lead others <strong>to</strong> Christ.Holy God, empower me <strong>to</strong> live a holy life, centered in the truth of yourWord. Amen
