2A COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL June 22, 2016 IN MEMORIAM Kathleen D. Richards Grubbe 1919-2016 Follow the best leader for your life W been a very good example of one to others either. Critical and judgmental attitudes like that, or murmuring, being unthankful, and complaining hinder our relationship with God and our representation of what a Christian is. But eventually, I began to get this nagging, uneasy feel- ing every time I would say something negative about the pastor…or anyone else for that matter. I could feel that what I was saying was wrong, and I knew in my heart it was the Holy Spirit telling me it was time to grow up and ma- ture spiritually. Now, I am immediately aware when I say or do some- thing that is not pleasing to God. And this is what He wants for all His children: to develop sensitivity and obedi- ence to His voice as He leads each of our lives. Romans 8:14 (AMPC) declares that “all who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God.” This term “sons” indicates a level of maturity and intimacy in our relationship with Him. God is not looking for spiri- tual robots; He wants sons. He doesn’t want us all just following a bunch of rules for the sake of obedience. Jesus made a way, through His per- fect sacrifi ce, for our sins to be completely washed away and removed from us so we can have a personal relation- ship with God. We are free to obey Him simply because we love Him and we know that everything He tells us to do, or not do, is for our good. We just need to learn to follow His lead. It’s actually exciting to hat does it mean to be led by the Holy Spirit? Some may refer to it as being fi lled with – or sensitive to or anointed by – the Spirit. It sounds really spiritual, but being led by the Spirit is ac- tually a very practical part of living the Christian life. Sim- ply put, to be led by the Holy Spirit just means to be obedi- ent to Him. The Holy Spirit does such awesome, yet practical work in the lives of God’s children. He is our Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener and Standby. He teaches us and guides us into truth…and He even brings the things we learn back to our re- membrance as we need it. And the best part of it all is that He lives in each of us. Ephesians 3:16 (AMPC) tells us that He enables us to be “…strengthened and rein- forced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling your innermost being and per- sonality].” He comes to live in our hearts when we’re born again, and then He teaches and guides us according to God’s plan and purpose for us. One of the ways He does this is by convicting us of the sins in our life, and we learn what’s right and wrong as we grow in our faith. We may get by with things that are not right for awhile, but the time comes when we need to grow up. I remember when I would go to church every Sunday and then gossip about the pastor or whatever I didn’t like about the service. Of course, I was not a very happy Christian during that time.
