Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on me.

Luke 11:1-13

9 ‘So I say to you, Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. 11 Is there anyone among you who, if your child asks for* a fish, will give a snake instead of a fish? 12 Or if the child asks for an egg, will give a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit* to those who ask him!’

On Thursday you met Maurice. Today it is Sandra. They are people who have been sign posts on my walk towards Jesus. Most of us do not have a St Paul vision as we travel along, we meet Jesus through the people in whom he dwells.
Sandra and I worked together. Sandra introduced us to homegroups. Through homegroups in churches since then we have met many 'family' members. Homegroups are an important part of our spiritual life.
Sandra prayed. When Matthew was in hospital Sandra was one of the first people I telephoned.
Through verse 13 Sandra guided me to a knowledge and experience of the acting of the Holy Spirit in my life.
