And if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies thorough His Spirit who indwells you.
John 16:14

Galatians 5:22-23
The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith- fulness, gentleness, and self-control.
My Child,
I came to give you My Spirit. The reason I lived, died, and rose again was so that I could then dwell inside you. My Spirit will guide you, help you, and comfort you. You cannot keep my com- mandments on your own; it is My Spirit that will enable you to do what I ask. Let Me abide in you so that you can walk in assurance moment by moment as you listen to my Words of truth.
Immanuel
You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.
John 13:13-14
Dear Lord,
Help me realize that the greatest accomplishment I could ever achieve in my life is to quietly mimic you. May I not seek my own glory, but rather, please fill me with yours--the kind that radiates love, bends the knee, and washes feet. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
