1 Thessalonians 5:19 NASB "Do not quench the Spirit,"I should have followed where He was leading, then I wouldn't have gotten into the mess I was in! Today's verse, although short, is very, very important to remember and live by! I felt this sense in my inner being not to go down the road I was on, not a real road but a choice put before me, a decision I made concerning life. As I began to pray about what choice to make, I felt as if the Holy Spirit was guiding me in a certain direction but I decided not to go that way - what a mistake - I ended up regretting my decision! I should have followed where the Holy Spirit led me - not quenching the Spirit of God in our lives is key to making the right decisions, going down the right path, bringing God the glory for the blessings that come - to quench the Spirit is like putting water on a fire, it smokes and goes out and we lose the light and heat from it! Don't walk in the darkness, start and keep the fire of the Holy Spirit growing! peace, tom
