“But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.”
— Galatians 5:16, NASB1995
Living Side by Side with the Spirit
Paul didn’t say “run ahead of the Spirit” or “drag Him behind.”
He said walk—side by side.
When we walk with the Spirit as mothers and children, we model dependence—not perfection.
We teach our kids to pause before reacting, to listen for His voice, and to walk in love.
Walking by the Spirit is slow, steady obedience.
And in a busy world, it’s the most powerful witness.
Discussion Prompt:
Ask your children:
- What does it mean to “walk with” someone?
- How can we walk with the Holy Spirit as a family?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, help our family stay in step with You. Teach us to walk together in love, joy, and self-control. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
