Holy Spirit, Guide me.

 Holy Spirit, Guide Me

Holy Spirit,

Not as a force,but as the Breath of God—

Guide me.

Be my first and final orientation.

When I am lost in the thicket of my own thoughts,

“Lead me into all truth.”(John 16:13)

When my wisdom reaches its brittle end,

be my“Counselor.” (John 14:26)

Guide my seeing.

Open my eyes to the world as You see it:

the hidden hurt,the quiet grace.

Let me discern not just the surface,

but the spiritual reality beneath.

“The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.”(1 Corinthians 2:10)

Guide my choosing.

At the crossroads of will and obedience,

where self-interest shouts loudest,

speak with that persistent,inner nudge—

the whisper that aligns with the character of Christ.

“I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees.”(Ezekiel 36:27)

Move me.

Guide my praying.

When I do not know what to pray,

when my groans are too deep for words,

“the Spirit himself intercedes for us

with wordless groans.”(Romans 8:26)

Pray Your perfect will through my imperfect heart.

Translate my chaos into communion.

Guide my becoming.

Shape in me the“fruit” that is Your signature:

love,joy, peace, patience, kindness,

goodness,faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. (Galatians 5:22-23)

Prune what is dead.Nurture what is alive.

Let my life be a living portrait of Your presence.

Guide me into surrender.

For Your guidance is not a tool I wield,

but a current I must trust.

It requires the releasing of the tiller,

the unclenching of my plans.

“Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”(2 Corinthians 3:17)

Guide me into that liberty—the freedom of a child

led by a trusted Father’s hand.

Come, Holy Spirit.

Be the Wind in my sails,

the Fire on my altar,

the Oil in my lamp,

the Seal on my heart.

Guide me today.

Guide me into the next moment,

the next step,the next breath.

Guide me deeper into Jesus.

Until my will echoes Yours,

and my path,however winding,

is unmistakably walked with You.

Amen.
