Let the Holy Spirit Drive
IllustrationAnalogy★★★★MASSIVE campaigns have been launched to carry the
message “Don’t Drink and Drive.” The idea is that if a person
is going to choose to drink, they should also plan to have a
friend do the driving. The person agrees to be drunk and
relinquish control.
To be filled with the Spirit is to turn control over to someone
else. It is to be governed and guided by the work of the Holy
Spirit. It is to let the Holy Spirit do the driving.
The point
Being filled with the Holy Spirit means relinquishing control to God's guidance, like giving car keys to a sober driver. The Spirit should steer our lives.
