Thoughts Upon Reading...

So this weekend I finally got around to finishing the book Forgotten God by Francis Chan. In the last chapter Chan concludes on how we must have the Holy Spirit present in our lives. Now while reading this I came upon a few lines that stuck out to me as well as make a valid point in such a short way. 

That being said here it is:
I don't want my life to be explainable without the Holy Spirit. I want people to look at my life and know that I couldn't be doing this by my own power. I want to live in such a way that I am desperate for Him to come through. That if He doesn't come through, I am screwed. (I probably shouldn't write that word here, but it's how I truly feel about this.)
So first off I think it's great that Chan goes on to say how we can be screwed without the Spirit. That part just made me smile. However we definitely need to take heed to this little excerpt since it speaks such truth.
