To cleanse the body of sin
Prepare soul for the Holy Spirit

I hope this inspires you to check
the scripture for yourself.
This is not supposed to replace
the Word of God; it’s only my
interpretation.

Baptism of the Holy Spirit. John: 5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

This is one of my favorite sayings. When I’m up against the wall about something usually people are drawn into my life to help me understand the difficulty or to confront it. I think I read it somewhere that we are magnets and we attract people that need to fill a part of our life.
