Habits and the Holy Spirit
Karen Pimpo

Bible in a Year :
Psalms 16-17 Acts 20:1-16

Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Romans 12:2

Today's Scripture & Insight :
Romans 12:1-3

“Did you grow up around here?” It was difficult to answer my dental hygienist’s question because her teeth-cleaning tools were still inside my mouth. She explained that in 1945, our city became the first in the world to add fluoride to public drinking water. Thought to prevent cavities, the treatment doesn’t require much: just 0.7 milligrams of fluoride to a liter of water. Its positive effects are obvious to a trained professional. But, I had no idea, I’d been drinking it all my life!

The things we consume every day can affect us over time. That applies not only to food and drink but also to entertainment, friends, and social media messages. The apostle Paul cautioned, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2). While the Holy Spirit is making disciples of Jesus to be more like Him, the process takes a lifetime. Our habits can help or hinder His work. It’s not always easy to recognize what we’re consuming, but we can ask the one who’s rich in “wisdom and knowledge” to show us (11:33). Wisdom and discernment help us “test and approve what God’s will is” (12:2), while considering ourselves with “sober judgment” (v. 3).

Whatever He might be asking us to add to or remove from our daily lives is worth the price. All things are “from him and through him and for him” (11:36). He knows best.

Reflect & Pray
What’s one habit that reveals the Holy Spirit’s work in your life? What’s one that might be hindering His work?

Holy Spirit, thank You for working in and through my life.

Good Things from Bad Circumstances
by Brenda Kis

James 1:2-3
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

The young boy standing in the sun-warmed field watching the family cow could not have known that poverty and the mockery of his community would someday bless thousands of people.

Every day, his family struggled to find enough food for their meal. When one child outgrew an article of clothing, the next one wore it, and on, and on, until the rag could no longer appear in public. He even had to wear his mother’s slippers to school because shoes cost too much.

When the boy grew older, he finally had the chance to leave his Communist country and go to the west for an education. From there, his life continued to blossom, and eventually, he obtained his Ph.D. degree from a prestigious university.

He became a university professor and was often called to speak around the world, encouraging audiences with stories from his grinding childhood and his confidence in God’s ability to transform our problems into blessings.

When Miroslav Kis died, a great crowd mourned his loss and his widow received messages from grieving people around the world.

The word “temptation” in today’s verse can also be translated “trial.” Hunger and shame were certainly trials in this young man’s life, but look what God did!

Reflection

How do I relate to life’s challenges today? How might I relate to them differently from now on?

Prayer

God, I want to profit from the difficulties of life and squeeze all the lessons out of suffering that I can so I, too, can bless the world. Help me believe in You and Your ability to bring good things out of problems. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
