Serving the Holy Spirit

by Rev. Georgeanne Medved

image  For the last two months I have been studying King David in the old Testament of the Bible and learning how the Holy Spirit talked to David and motivated David to be a kind and merciful ruler. I have also turned to A Course in Miracles during this study and found that Holy Spirit wants for us to be kind and merciful to others.

During the past four years I have been motivated by Holy Spirit to bake something once a month for two families that have a spouse that is gravely ill. I found that by doing this small act of kindness that the recipients appreciate not only the cake or cookies but the time my husband and I spend visiting with them when we deliver them.

We did get to know one family very, very well and when the wife passed away we cried out to Holy Spirit to heal our hearts. Then a few months later her dear husband passed away and we missed him furiously. At that time I asked God in His mercy to heal the hole in my heart and Holy Spirit answered by telling me to bake for another family in crisis.

I am finding that this small gesture of kindness which was motivated by the Holy Spirit has become a very large act of mercy and love. The people who I am able to serve love someone who they can pour out their very soul to and who will take time to listen without being afraid or judging. Family members sometimes become afraid or judgmental when told some of the gruesome details of very ill patient’s feelings. Good friends listen with mercy and kindness.

Holy Spirit always guides me and tells me when it is time to bake and when it is time to deliver. My husband is a willing participant.

In my quiet time each day with Holy Spirit, I not only pray for my dear friends but thank Holy Spirit for sending them into our lives.
