The Holy Spirit and the Body of Believers: what a Sunday bonnet to put on the decision my husband and I made yesterday. Choosing which house to buy among the many we have looked at, we tried to exercise care not to tempt the Lord with our expectations, or turn wishes into demands, knowing that we cannot foresee the plans he has for us in this new place.
That God would care at all about the details in our daily lives and that he gives me the freedom to make mistakes makes me feel loved. That he uses the input of others to guide reminds me how much we need each other. That he has in mind purposes that extend beyond personal preferences enables me trust him with outcomes.
Thanks for this timely discussion.
