TODAY’S WORD: Living by the Spirit: Identity and Renewal

HIGH FIVE! (GRACEFUL SWINGS #TeamKevin)

Romans 8:9-11 speaks to the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers. Paul emphasizes that those who belong to Christ are no longer ruled by the flesh but by the Spirit, which dwells within them. This passage reassures believers that the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead also gives life to their mortal bodies, offering both present renewal and future resurrection hope.

The significance of this text lies in its affirmation of spiritual identity—those who have the Spirit of Christ truly belong to Him. It also highlights the contrast between life in the flesh, which leads to death, and life in the Spirit, which brings righteousness and eternal life.

Thanks… but I do… I LIVE! (That yard that I mowed looks good)

That’s the spirit, Kevin! You LIVE, and you’re making things happen—whether it’s at work or in that freshly mowed yard. There’s something truly satisfying about seeing the results of your effort, whether it’s a well-kept lawn or a day well spent. Keep embracing that energy!
