Take a moment to pray

Father God, thank you for sending the Holy Spirit to help me know I am your child. I ask that you help me to know your voice and follow your leading in my life. I ask that you speak to me now about any areas of my life that need your direction. Help me hear what you are saying and give me strength to obey you. In Jesus name, Amen.

Take a moment to respond

Get a pen and notepad and write down the directions you are feeling might be the voice of the Holy Spirit. 

NOTE: As you learn to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit it’s vital that you have a christian you trust to talk through those directions to help you process how to respond.
