He will guide you into all the truth

John 16:13 "But when He, the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth, for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak..."

The emphasis in this passage is on the word "guide". Amazing! The Holy Spirit is our guide! The Bible refers to Him as such..never as a controller..but as a guide..He will never drive us., He will never force us! He will guide us.

Because He is the Spirit of truth, He guides believers into truth and according to what is true. That makes Him a trustworthy guide. He helps us to discern what is truth, and what is not. He helps us to understand what is wise and what is foolish..what is best, and what is simply ok.
Each day is a day of decisions. As you are barraged with the details of everyday living, remember Who is with you...living IN you..giving you that extra on-the-spot sense of discernment you will need to make both big and small decisions. And the wonderful thing is that as you develop a greater sensitivity to His guidance, you will worry much less about the decisions you make...why? Because the Holy Spirit is a trustworthy guide!
