BATTERY FULL

And the saying pleased the whole multitude; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch. Acts 6:5

The verse above describes Stephen as a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit. What does it mean to be full of the Holy Spirit? What can we liken it to?
After charging our phones for a long time the notification on our phones normally reads 'battery full' as opposed to when it has not been connected properly to a power source so that it reads 'battery low'. That is how our spiritual life is. When we spend ample time connecting to our power source that is the Holy Spirit, we come out full of the Holy Spirit and every gifting and virtue inherent in our Spirit is activated.
When our phone battery is low however all the functions of the phone and in our case our spirits, become inacessible to us. It becomes difficult to here from God. It becomes difficult to receive insight when we read the scriptures. Our light begins to dim as Christians so that it becomes difficult for people to see Christ in us. All because we are not connected to him. The good news is that the moment we reconnect to him again we'll begin to light up once more. Therefore let's not refuse to spend ample with God on account of being busy. Let's connect with God.

LIFE APPLICATIONS
Examine your phone when the battery is low and ask the Holy Spirit to teach you from it. Spend ample time with God each day that you may be filled with the Holy Ghost.

PRAYER
Fill me up Lord, fill me up.
