Good Monday Morning.  Here’s Today’s Nugget to chew on:

“Recognize What You Have”

John 14:15-17 Amplified Bible (AMP)

15 “If you [really] love Me, you will keep and obey My commandments.

16 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), to be with you forever—

17 the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive [and take to its heart] because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He (the Holy Spirit) remains with you continually and will be in you.

——-

Further Thought:  In today’s passage, Jesus was speaking to his disciples, the believers of His time.  As a result of their obedience, confirmed in Acts 2:1-4, we now have the promised “Helper,” the Holy Spirit, living in us, who is our Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor, Counselor, Strengthener, and Standby.  Psalm 103:2 reminds us not to forget a single benefit that God has given to us.  So, the next time you find yourself anxious, remind yourself who’s with you and in you.  So, if you never receive another gift, don’t sweat it; you’ve already been given the best gift.  Now chew on that.

Have a great day, and keep chewing on God’s Word.
