Holy Spirit be my Stead !

Holy Spirit move in me. Move in me.

Show me what you want me to be.

Give me vision.  Be my lead.

Let me sit back.  You be my stead.*

Less of me, more of YOU,

Be my leader in all I do,

Merriam-Webster (google search)

* Holy Spirit be my stead, ACT IN MY PLACE !!

John 14:26

But the comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Psalm 51:11

Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

Luke 11:13

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

Matthew 21:22

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

John 16:24

Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

Romans 15:13

Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

The above prayer poem could be my mantra daily, sometimes moment by moment.  Though I myself fail often, and badly, ALL of my HOPE is in thy Father through Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit provided for believers in Christ.  If you do not know this HOPE but desire to, I invite you to read this post explaining how YOU too may invite Jesus to be Lord of your life.
